Hallelujah!

Posted in Humor, Religion on December 5th, 2010

So what do you do when your choir is nowhere near large enough to properly perform the song Hallelujah? If your the director and members of this high school troop, you get creative.


Silent Monks Sing Hallelujah

I just about spite my beer – it would have been a sinful waste of a fine Weyerbacher Quad – across my laptop when I first saw this “Silent Monks” YouTube video. :lol:

Enjoy, but put your drink down first for your a safety. ;-)

Arachnid Drug Culture

In 1995 NASA published it’s findings on the effects of common recreational drugs and toxins on the behavior and web building characteristics of spiders. It was only a preliminary report though and didn’t provide any insight into the long-term effects of various drugs upon the spiders’ behavior and web weaving.

Fortunately others have continued where NASA left off:
