As many of you have now heard, there were attempted bombings in London and Glasgow Airport. BBC round-up.

In case we needed further proof that terrorists are idiots, these guys are doctors who apparently don’t know basic chemistry or physics, so the whole thing failed, thankfully.

  1. Doctors are not necessarily smart people.
  2. Terrorists are stupid.

For brown children everywhere who are pressured into being doctors, you can now tell your parents with a straight face, doctors are stupid and people fear them. No prestige, no money, no need to be a doctor. Thank God for small favors.

The Church of Critical Thinking has a good piece on National Preparedness Month and it’s political implications. But this administration wouldn’t be so crass to use terrorism to help their approval ratings?
