... that God loves us, and wants us to be happy.

And, while I love both individual products, I'm not sure how will the two go together. Don't get me wrong, I hope these brave young men succeed in their quest, "to make everything taste like bacon." I've seen less noble causes brought to fruition while brining less Good to this planet. I also hope to have a can or two of this miracle products in my hand by the end of the week.

God speed.

This is great:

And, now you may be asking yourself: Huh? It's okay, you can look it up.

Okay, so Google Maps completely rocks. The way you can manipulate their map site is awesome. Just type in your start/end points and, BAM, you've got directions.

Then, they made it better!

You can drag the route to the destination. It works really well and is now my Most Favorite Thing Ever™ for this week.

This is about the coolest thing I've seen in a long, long time: The Microsoft¹ Surface. Watch the video, it's worth it.

I already want one.

I ♥ science.

It fills our life with joy. Sure, sure, the Fark thread on Enzymatic analysis of a rhomboid intramembrane protease made me smile, but science is so much more than that. It helps explain how life works. Why, just today, this nugget was returned from what I can only assume is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Muppet Labs:

...While high-testosterone participants showed better learning in response to anger faces, they were unaware of the fact that they learned anything in the first place and unaware of what kind of faces had reinforced their learning.

[U-M psychology researcher Michelle] Wirth, the lead author of the study and now a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, added: "Better learning of a task associated with anger faces indicates that the anger faces were rewarding, as in a rat that learns to press a lever in order to receive a tasty treat. In that sense, anger faces seemed to be rewarding for high-testosterone people...

For the non-science people out there, let me explain in even simpler terms: I kick your cats across the room and this lovely little squinty eyed expression of pure hatred forms on your face a brief moment before you smile (because you realized you hate that fucking cat too). That expression is like gold. I likes it. It is a highlight in my normally dismal day. If I point out that it's not your dress that makes you look fat, it's your hips, and you make that face, you damn well know I'm going to bring up something else you don't like. Action, reaction. Cause and effect. "We are all victims of causality."

Now, I have some people to make angry, I will say adieu and goodbye. (Unless you're on my list of people to make angry... in that case, I'll see you soon. :)
