Awesomesauce Thursday: I Am A (Giant) Paleontologist

Hey! It's Awesomesauce Thursday!!

Science is great! Especially when you learn it from kooky band They Might Be Giants:

They Might Be Giants - I Am A Paleontologist

These guys are the coolest. Seriously!! Their recent releases have been geared towards children, and tend to be *shock* on the almost educational side! The newest release "Here Comes Science" is gearing up to be great... if not a little controversial!!

A lyric from the track "Science is Real" (see its video here!) groups together angels, unicorns and elves as elements of "stories", where science is "fact". While I wholeheartedly agree, some more religious folks may take offense to the inclusion of angels. This came right after I watched the Penn & Teller - Bulls**t! episode on Creationism. Interestingly appropriate.

Enjoy!
