Biologist Gifts

'Don't blame me for the smell -- I suggested silicon-based life forms.'

Evolution or Creation? A Compromise

"We just haven't been flapping them hard enough."

"The arms wouldn't be so noticeable if he'd stop playing air guitar."

"When Dr. Henderson comes in, everybody play dead."

"Go. Evolve. Don't worry about us."

"Excuse me, sir, but would you mind getting the door for us?"

'Hey weirdo, where do you think you're going?'

"I'm afraid this whole experiment is about to go south."

"Darn, it's another bald-crowned big bellied male."

"Frankly, I don't see the resemblance."

"I have a bad feeling about this."

DNA Analysis.

"We think it has something to do with your genome."

'Well, I guess we're the control group.'

You are here.

While experts remain at odds over the issue of when life begins, most agree it's sometime after work.

'The body is made up of millions and millions of crumbs.'

'What's it all about?'

'I'm growing mini human brains from stem cells.'

"Bring me a stem cell."

"Kind of makes your feel large and significant, doesn't it?"

"Your right.. It is waving back at us."

DNA Testing

'You've changed.'

Control and Out of Control Group

'That new antibiotic seems to be working. Time to evolve again.'

'But Timmy, you have to eat your antibiotics, or you'll never become a big and strong bacteria.'

Journey of a sandwich through the digestive system.

Bacterial Culture

"We should've stayed on land, and grown feet and kicked ass."

"What do you want to be when you grow up?" "Nothing. I'm going into stem cell research."

Maze inside a man's brain.

'The anaerobic ones are just sitting there, but the aerobic bacteria are doing jumping jacks, sit-up, leg lifts....'
