Crocodile Snack Science

In a dire month for the kind of news Boggart Blog can get laughs from it is those whacky scientists we must thank for most of our traffic. Their weird experiments in which they teach mice to earn snacks by pressing buttons with their noses and thus learn important stuff about human behaviour have been a rich seam of humour for us. As if they were aware of our need the scientists have even responded with a scientific project involving crocodiles and snacks.

Survivors: State Of Emergency Is Declared

A new series of the post apocalyptic drama Survivors begings on UK television tonight. In view of the government’s many attempts to beat us all into dumb obedience by spreading fear and panic about war, plague, famine and climate change we wonder should we view the show as a prophetic warning of a dystopian future or as a light hearted and optimistic vision of a brighter future.
