Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for September 17, 2012
Transcript:
Danae: Hey, I haven't seen Lars around lately. Jeffrey: Um... he's kinda mad at me right now. Danae: Why? Jeffrey: Well... he told me the key to finding the Higgs boson particle and... Danae: The what particle? Jeffrey: Higgs boson... aka, "The God Particle." Anyway I sorta let it slip to some scientists, and now they've discovered it... but I don't know why it made him so upset. Danae: Wait... There's a particle that'll make me into a god?! Jeffrey: Ok, now I get it...

It’s like Malcolm said in Jurassic Park: God creates dinosaurs. God destroys dinosaurs. God creates man. Man destroys God…

Just watched all four parts of the Ring (the one by Wagner). Being a god ain’t no picnic.

Callback time.
I’m sorry.If you have completely avoided technology, how are you able to post on this site?
This was a reference to Da Ali G Show with Sasha Baron Cohen on HBO.The word techmology was quite intended..

Correction: “Goddess”, Danae. You’re a female.

No, that stuff isn’t nearly so enduring as the Higgs.

Neil Turok wanted to call it the “bozo” particcle but his colleagues nixed the idea as too disrespectfull to a certain, all powerfull, deity!

All Danae needs is a plane ticket to Switzerland – one way will do. Lars won’t mind.

richardelguru — You are quite correct! The particle that could not be found, much like my house keys. Has anyone seen them?

@magicFan: Lighten up. 1) What Richard says is true and 2) your kids hear very much worse on the playground from their peers.

no Danae, just a republican……

All she has to do is stand at the end of the super-collider to catch it.

‘Just say “chairwoman” or “chairman” depending on who is it.’
+++++
Or even just “chair”?

Oh, Jeffrey. No wonder Lars is upset. You know how Danae gets when she thinks she’s a Boson.

Lock your wigs, and don’t forget to inflate your shoes…

How true. The Higgs boson theory explains a lot about the universe, but the particle has about as much chance of making someone a “god” as wishing does. But since Danae is representative of the sheeple who believe whatever (99.9999999999999% faulty) hype the media feeds it, why burst her bubble?

SCAATY, more likely Tom Waits is right when he says there ain’t no Devil, that’s just God when He’s drunk!
Caddy57 over 11 years ago
For an intelligent kid ….sometimes Jeffery can be SOOOO dumb….the idea of Danae as a God…makes me very scared for some reason.

I thought that Danae ALREADY believed She was a god. Or should I say ‘goddess’?
