The crazy, crazy world of green transgenic pigs

I know, I know, it’s complete crap just to post a link to another site because all you really want to hear about is all the hot gossip that’s been happening in my world recently, but this is really weird.

Damn Interesting is a site which I check regularly for interesting stuff. I recently learnt about the Hindenburg disaster, and some other things that I can’t remember, but these green pigs are something else!

I know that a while ago some mad scientists managed to put some genes from a jellyfish into a plant, and that these genes made the plant glow. No, I’m serious, I mean a proper, no bullshit glow! Apparently since then, it has been put into all sorts of animals just because we can and now the list includes pigs.

This strikes me as both an awful, awful example of how humans have raped nature, but also as really quite funny. I mean these pigs glow in the dark!

Some links:

If you’re looking for recent gossip, gimme a while and I’ll try to cook something up … Let me think …

Ok, I really can’t think of any, but I do have an excellent site which is disgusting, rude, probably immoral but it’s my favourite site right now, because he is the funniest guy in the entire world.

If you’re not easily offended get on over to Cody Clarke dot com and laugh yourself silly.
