motherjones:Note to National Guard motor-pool trainers: Tell future recruits that, when in doubt, you don’t plow your government-issue cargo truck through 10-foot floodwater. Especially if you can’t swim.Who, *seriously* can’t swim, though? I mean, it’s practically instinctual if you don’t overthink it. In other news, we have idiots in our military.But they’re all heroes and stuff.

So not only do Christians cling to completely fictional stories as though they are fact, they’re NOT FUNNY.

Seriously, I looked for a funny “comic”, but couldn’t find one. I guess the one where Adam says to Eve “You’re the only one for me.” was kind of amusing, but the look on Eve’s face suggests she’s not too happy about being married to a fictional character.

Seriously, kids, we’ve got this whole “Adam and Eve” thing covered. They’re not real. Never existed. Zero evidence. Done and done.  The closest we’ve got is Mitochondrial Eve who is, according to science, estimated to have lived 200,000 years ago.  She also wasn’t the only woman alive at the time and there were plenty of other men.

Of course, all of this, the above cartoon, and the other cartoons at the site I found them at, would be perfectly acceptable if only THEY WERE FUNNY.

Thanks to Adam, the guy behind BoredWithPorn.tumblr.com, for pointing these out to me.

So, watch what happens when two cousins get together to watch some TV!!

ENJOY!

Jay ThePal's Jay TheVlog for May 31, 2009 Kay ThePal is back! Plus the best blooper EVER.

Wow, this was a pretty great week for Jay ThePal! Lots to talk about with gay marriage (and what it means for puppet marriage) and Kay ThePal helped out more this week--unfortunately, she got a little too close to the booze for one of the 12secondst.tv challenges. :( Also, added for fun is the best blooper a puppet could ever experience! Well, "best" from our point of view, anyway. :)



As always, thanks to Lisa, the brains behind OnLisaReinsRadar.com for hosting the 56.4MB version of the 8.5m Jay TheVlog above for your iPod playing.

Jay ThePal's Jay TheVlog for May 23, 2009 HD tests! Green Screen! Ripping off Star Wars and more!

This week was fun because we tried out the HD cam for all of Jay ThePal's stuff for 12seconds.tv. It ended up being a bit too much work on the back end, but the two days we used the cam were a lot of fun. Between the obviously better picture to the gun we had with green screen, it was almost like we had a budget! Yeah! So, check it out and like Jay always says, let us know what you think. YEAH!!



Thanks to Lisa of LisaReinsRadar.com for hosting this 51MB mp4 version of the above 7m39s video for your podcasting pleasure!
