Weekly Random Ten (19 October 2005)

It's Not Just for Fridays Anymore Edition

Why limit the Random Ten meme to only Fridays? Ok, so the meme is really old, and I rarely see anyone do it anymore, but I'm gonna try to turn it on its head. Once a week -- maybe on a Friday, but maybe on a Tuesday, a Wednesday, or, gasp, even a Sunday -- I'll post a Random Ten. This week's theme: reading a new a comic strip.

I was recently directed to Minimum Security, a poorly drawn comic with a political slant. When I went to check it out, the first comic on the page was this one:



Could it be an omen? Is some higher power telling me to bookmark this page and check back regularly? They do seem to make fun of the same people I can't stand: religious zealots who want to destroy science with their dogma. But then I remembered, I don't believe in fate, karma, or any of that super-natural crap.

Enough with the intro, here's this week's Weekly Random Ten:
