He Said "Anus"

Astronomers have found three "weird" moons orbiting Uranus. You might want to have a doctor take a look at that, I'm sure some antibiotics wold clear it right up. One of those little pillow with the hole in the middle might make things more comfortable for you... are you eatting enough fiber?
You know, I'm sure many web 'zines would pass on a humorous opportunity such as this one. They'd say "That's sooo old" or "how juvenile can you get?". We we here at Pigdog Journal-- OK, not really, it's probably just me-- think it really needs to be pointed out one more time that any news about Uranus is ripe for some serious pun!
Oh come one, read these quotes and tell me you don't think about butts:
"The discovery of these irregular satellites is very important because it means that Uranus is not some oddball."
"The atmosphere of Uranus is composed of 83% hydrogen, 15% helium, 2% methane and small amounts of acetylene and other hydrocarbons."
"In 1977, the first nine rings of Uranus were discovered."
"This view of Uranus was acquired by Voyager 2 in January 1986. The greenish color of it atmosphere is due to methane and high-altitude photochemical smog."
Ha! I knew it!

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.
