I miss him. He was a voice of scientific reason in a sea of ignorance. His Cosmos series was brilliant.

It never ceases to amaze me how few people seem to understand the simple principle he stated: "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence."

Though it's certainly not an extraordinary claim to say that Friends was a gallupin' goose of a good show. Golly-wee-hey that was funny.

Remember the race car bed? "Monica ... Faloola ... Geller!"

I mean, who came up with that stuff? And what were they on? Weed? Coke? Meth? Speed? Heroin? Huffing paint? E's? LSD? PCP? Crack? Crank? Freon? Crocodyl? Bath salts?

Bath salts are a divine addition to a bath full of calf milk. I enjoy the bath salts bubbling in places that relax me. I languish.....
Of course, one should never languish too long because the servants may peep through the keyhole.

One must always be observant of the perverted voyeur.
