3 June 2007 - Creation Museum

< yesterday -- tomorrow >

At the Creation Museum in Kentucky, they have everything figured out. After squeezing 350,000 species of live beetles onto Noah’s Ark, only 300 cubits long, most of the other animals didn’t fit, so God must have given them specially-designed scuba gear. One pair of cheetahs did fit, which explains that species’ recent genetic bottleneck. And the mammoths didn’t make it because they thought they could swim long enough.

clue:

The actual ideas pushed by the Creation Museum are at least this unlikely. They suggest that Noah must have taken only young dinosaurs, because full-grown ones would have been too big....

give me a clue so sweet and true
