I don't care what any of these eggheads say about estrogenic whatzahoozits. I'm willing to sing soprano and have a huge quivering hairy vagina in the middle of my chest if it means I get to have JUSTONE MORE GODDAMN BEER.

There's a bunch of people up in the hills of Vermont who build their own telescopes so they can look at the stars. If that's not genuine cyberbilly, I don't know what is.
These people have the worlds largest operating Schupmann telescope: it's a thirteen-inch f10. Don't know what a Schupmann telescope is? It's on their site. "It's a single glass refractive apochromat, ... and it uses only spherical surfaces." It's a clever design to eliminate the chromatic aberration common to refractor telescopes. And these amateurs in the middle of the backwoods in Vermont built the biggest one in the world! That's kinda like finding a Saturn V booster in a model rocketry exhibit at a West Virginia high school science fair.
These folks outgeek us stupid computer dorks every step of the way, and they don't look ridiculous in overalls. Has Pigdog been out-pigdogged?

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.
