The Mark(ings) of Zorro
"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
H.L. Mencken

Jeez...I didn't have any idea.

Well, it just goes to show you that all the crap about geologic forces and the world being a couple billion years old--stuff I learned 30+ years ago, is just plain wrong. If seems that the Bush administration wants to correct such gross misunderstandings by promoting a book which states that the Grand Canyon was actually formed by Noah's Flood. Yessir, that's right, Noah's Flood. And all those nasty (and inconvenient) fossils exposed in all those strata visible to us in the Canyon? God, it seems, likes the practical joke as well as the next great unwashed, because that's all those things are--a practical joke.

Excuse me...I have to beat my head against something very, very hard.
