Nimoy's musical tribute to Bilbo Baggins

Sometimes the internet scars you for life. And when that happens, the pain must be shared.

Science Scout Badges

Because I am not cruel enough to leave you with only the last link, have some shiny badges. I've listed just a few of the badges I've earned:

* The “I’m a freaking rock star who sings about science!” badge - for nearly presenting a song about the diplodocus to the tune of "Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows" written by one of my best friends. I'll still hum this on to myself on occasion.

* The “somewhat confused as to what scientific field I actually belong to” badge - if you're surprised, you probably don't know me.

* The “experienced with electrical shock” badge (LEVEL III) - though to be fair, it wasn't in the name of science, but unfortunately that "Electronics don't belong in water" was a more immediate thought than "Don't touch electronics that are in water".

* If you squint a little, The “I actually grew up AND became a marine biologist” badge - sure didn't see this one coming.
