Dear readers, today marks a very special day. Today is the day I finally discovered the NASA Astrobiology website, which is essentially a haven for amateur exobiologists like myself. (Yes, exobiologist: while astrobiology focuses mostly on carbon-based life forms, exobiology takes into consideration the fact that there may be other types of creatures, such as… Continue reading WE FOUND THEM!

In The Good Old Days, They Made Us Analyze A Shakespeare Sonnet Before Every Meal…
Dear readers, have you noticed that the standard of writing is going down? Seriously.

When Zookeepers (who are also authors) Go Bad
“Animals.” That, dear readers is the insanely creative first sentence of Linda Lombardi’s book “Animals Behaving Badly”, which is about animals… behaving badly. Dear, dear readers, would you read that book? Perhaps you would. I don’t know.
