With the announcment of the nearly-perfect black surface yesterday, I went looking at Wikipedia for a refresher course on carbon nanotubes, and, as is the case, I discovered more than I bargained for:
  • The buckyball is the state molecule of Texas.
  • The improperly-prepared corn muffin is the state muffin of Massachusetts.
  • The Natchitoches meat pie is the state meat pie of Louisiana
  • The blueberry is the state blue berry of North Carolina.
  • Conecuh Ridge Whiskey is the state spirit of Alabama. (Note to self. Must try.)
  • "Great Potatoes. Tasty Destinations." is the state slogan of Idaho.
  • aaaaaand, nearly every state has an official state dirt.
Now you can all be the envy of useless information purveyors the world over!

A "dork" is a whale penis.

I always took it to be slang for penis in general, but I now have a vision of an ancient whaling vessel, filled with crusty, seafaring men, tossed on the stormy seas, as they come across a pod of tumescent whales doing the backstroke. From the crows nest comes the call: "Dorks to starboard!" and all the men run to that side of the ship, which makes the cry as much an order as a notification.

I am currently resisting posting a bukkake image.

Never let it be said that I am completely without restraint.

You have no idea how appreciate I am.

I've been to Threebear. We ride dirt bikes there pretty much every weekend in the spring and fall. I feel compelled to add that the dirt is very loose and almost slippery when dry, and really hard to clean off when muddy.
