Re: Chez Watt Ballot, October 1, 2007

The competition was too close for me to decide what to put in first
place. The following gets second place:

======
For the "Sing No Evil" Dept.:

Monkey Evolution March (sung to the tune of "Battle Hymn of the
Republic")

Mine eyes have seen the coming of the monkey from his tree.
He is standing at the forest edge a tad unsteadily.
Now he is walking on the plain a-bending of his knee.
He keeps evolving on.
[etc.]

======

The following takes second place:

======
In the category: Defining the sides of the bell curve

Why are evolutionists always so humble about a Chez Watt nomination
and creationists react with indignation over it?

Because in both cases, it highlights their intellectual capacity.
======

The following deserves second place:

======
How stupid are you?

I'm starting to think I'm stupid enough to argue delusions with a
psychotic, frankly.
======

And the following is awarded second place:

======
A nomination for Chez Watt, for promoting international relations:

Yes, indeed. And if all the toolbox has in it is a hammer, you treat
everything as a nail, even if it's a screw (I have *seen* this. We call
it "bush carpentry" in Australia).

In America, almost the same. We call it "Bush carpentry".
