I'll tell you guys a little bit about myself I actually came into comedy in kinda strange fashion I finished
my Ph.D and then I went into comedy.
Which i do not recommend
It's a little like spending six years of your life training for the olympics and then going
I think I'd rather be a glass blower.
But I have found a way to combine the comedy with the Ph.D. I'm gonna give you guys a brief seminar
here tonight.
Origins of life. Certain milestones in history of life we should all be aware of.
For example
4.5 billion years ago we saw the formation of the earth
from the explosion and collapse of a star that subsequently became
our sun.
One billion years after that, 3.5 billion years ago, we saw the very first
fossils in the fossil record. Which are assumed to be some form of anaerobic bacteria.
3.4 billion years ago Larry King hosts his first talk show.
Haha!
One billion years after that Larry King's future wife begins to evolve
from cyanobacteria.
Cladograms these are diagrams used in biology to show common ancestry.
But you can use them for anything.
For example, the mortar and the bullet are both derived from Chinese fireworks.
Flyswatter and the hammer
are both derived from the rock.
Ritalin and the pacifier
both derived from a desire to shut your child up.
Haha!
Ratios. Ratios are actually very important in determining our behavior whether we realize it or not.
For example,
signal-to-noise ratio
determines our hearing behavior. This black line is the signal
and the pink one is the noise.
When the signal is weak relative to the noise, at that point, you can't hear.
As it increases in strength you get to the point where you can hear.
As it continues to increase in strength you get to the point
where you can hear clearly.
Of course ratios determined other important behaviors as well.
Haha!
My porto potty behavior determined entirely by this ratio.
Haha!
Both of these are affected by alcohol.
Haha!
Laugh!
Before I start drinking, at the point, I won't use the porto potty.
A few drinks later I can't refuse.
A few drinks after that ...
Haha!
