Fast and Furious
In 1905 the theory of special relativity proposed that nothing could travel faster than the speed of light. That sounded reasonable considering the Wright brothers first flight in 1903 clocked in at 6.8 m.p.h., and the Ford Model T had a top speed of 45 m.p.h. Now researchers at the CERN lab have claimed they have recorded neutrinos travelling faster than 186,282 miles per second*. We are a nation obsessed with breaking speed records, and I can imagine NASCAR aficionados throwing tailgate parties around a particle accelerator while neutrinos accelerate faster than the speed of light. In fact it is not much different than a typical car race as both feature high speed projectiles, and explosions from matter colliding. Besides, the heat generated by smashing atoms means you could cook a slab of ribs faster than Dale Earnhardt Jr. crossing the finish line. Just perfect for that pre-race laboratory lot barbecue.

The Holy book of Al
Nature, the peer reviewed, world renowned science magazine has an article which points to the sun as the primary agent in controlling the climate on earth*. This common sense idea has been known by all peoples, in all places, throughout human history, except to the morons of this current generation.

The Holy book of Al 7:22
Then Al, who was known by his followers as the messiah, was mocked, and scourged by the angry crowd who claimed he was a liar and a deceiver. They forced him to carry a solar panel on his shoulders and he was taken to a hill of his water view property to be crucified. With his last breath he cried out, my sun, my sun, why has thou forsaken me?
This story is fictitious and sarcastic. It does not promote violence or encourage it. It is not intended to be sacriligious, but point out the difference between a false prophet and the one true savior.
