Today might be a slow news day but a couple of stories caught my eye:

In Taiwan they have developed glow in the dark pigs:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/4605202.stm

My question is why?

A student in oxford has been summoned for calling a horse gay:

Again I wonder why?

Apparently they are now working on Jellyfish that taste like bacon - much cheaper to farm.

You never know when some useless thing can be a gem.
The search for prime numbers went on and on.
But why?
Those who searched and searched and made equations to find prime numbers,what good to them?
Prime numbers are the reason you have safety on the internet.
It is the code that can not be brokenzz4😵8..m-aHHH!

How bout the Israeli scientist who developed a featherless chicken?
Thats for real, I saw the photo, genetically engineered to have
no feathers. He figured it would be easier to process.
The poor chicken looked a bit stunned walking around with
no feathers. I thought the guy would have been up for the
Ignobel award but didn't even get a mention.

How else are you going to find a pig in the dark?

An age-old question has finally been answered.

Yes, but the really important question is, "Can the pig fly?"

What you do is take 3 glow in the dark pigs and label them 1,2 and 4. Then you release them into the school... WHEN IT'S DARK!

They'll spend ages looking for pig number 3. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Interestingly enough "pig" is one of the few Anglo Saxon words you can write without censorship on RHP.

There are 5.000 Anglo-Saxon words in the Oxford English dictionary, out of roughly 6.000.0000 words, and most of them are banned or completely unused.

So, I feel oblilged to applaud you in this excellent use of ancient English!
Well done!

Pigs are cool!

Cow is another. Pretty much any harsh (in sound) short (single syllable) word is.

I just hope they never make them fly. If they do, i have a lot of old promises to keep that i never wanted to keep.


Example:
Girl to me - "Lets get married"

Me - "When pigs fly!!!!!!!!!"
