Religion is almost always funny

Check out the 9 most badass verses in the bible. Hilariously funny stuff. [via Boing Boing]
(Ok, religion isn’t always funny, having bomb-strapped people running around your kids isn’t very funny. Then again, I would argue it has almost nothing to do with religion…)

carbon dioxide emissions & the people walking to the dead end

I’d hate to be on the board of Daimler-Chrysler right now. They haven’t got much going for them it seems – or, as Treehugger puts it << Nothing says “I don’t care” as a shiny new Mercedes >>…
