Alcohol Haze At Galactic Heart
Kentai writes: "According to the BBC: 'The detection of yet more alcohol in a giant molecular cloud near the centre of our galaxy could give clues to the origin of complex organic molecules in space.' I knew my life revolved around alcohol!"
someones trying to raid God's liquor stash...better watch out!
When I find myself in a cloud of alcohol, I frequently find myself emitting large amounts of organic compounds too.
Bureau of ATF officials are now on their way to the region looking for their intergalactic still. "Young adults tend to think that moonshining is a fun way to avoid their state's liquor laws, but the "Dukes of Hazaard" is not an accurate portrayal of this dangerous business," said Agt. Washington Fleming, who is leading the operation. "The quanity involved, although small by galactic standards, suggests that this is not being done just for personal use, and that makes it a Federal matter. Also, once they start selling it, they step on the heals of organized crime, and are so pitting themselves against a more ruthless foe than Boss Hog."

There are several key steps in the origins of life:
And origins of complex organic molecules are believed to be:
2 reptiles beneath your current threshold.
I'd prefer a giant Miller-Beer experiment.
- - - If the sun is a star, why can't I see it at night?
....and slowly, though the eons, the cloud coalesces into clumps. In the more massive clumps something wonderful emerges! A star is born...made of beer.
It's gentle amber light pours over the proto-planets. The inner planets are made of more dense materials, salt, peanuts, etc. The outer planets are mostly gaseous in nature...
Democrats or Republicans. They are both taking us to the same place and they are not afraid of us anymore.
Sleeping, dreaming, waking, weary,
Rises man with eyelids dreary,
Looking to voluptuous lass,
Queezy from the sleeping gas.
In dreamless sleep he passed the years,
Oblivious to all men's fears
That someday might the women see
The path on which they might be free.
Yet see he will, as time unfold,
And finds the fairer sex too bold,
And needless of his violent race
And speaking plainly to his face,
"We have no need of male intrusion
Having mastered your infusion,
And can now our 'selves inject
With something to a sim'lar 'ffect.
"'T is safer for 'veryone involved
And humanity has thence evolved,
Such that not we need burly race
And can at last true love embrace.
"And thus we seek this far expanse,
Far off from home and Nature's chance
To find the spacial alcohol
Which attracts th' 'ttension of us all
"Though of it we will not partake,
And happiness for this mistake:
A brief respite from nat'ral woes
And thrown into dread Nature's throes.
"Nor we will not of it use make
As it our souls will surely break
With gross desires most unhealthful
With consequences too far dreadful.
"And so you must, as species rest,
Comfortable, as if our guest,
Yet ever knowing thou art slave
And our experiments must brave.
"The end of stimulation 't is near
And soon shall we of sin be clear
And we shall sexless show the way
How to keep howling Death at bay."
Unable to reverse the Curse,
Unable to embrace the Worse,
Looking but to future Life
And how to overcome such Wife,
He at long last doth join the crew,
As if in it he always grew,
And soon doth learn their servile way,
And from his manhood so doth stray,
And the alcohol remains uncollected.

From the article:
Vinyl alcohol, actually a non-inebriating complex organic molecule...
Awww shit! And I was getting all ready to "boldly go"...
You're using her as bait, Master!
