98% of the human genome is noncoding DNA. Termed junk DNA, this vast majority of all human DNA has no known biological function. Why would we have so much nonfunctional genetic material? Are these the instructions for superpowers that are waiting to be tapped or are they really just junk left over from millions of years of modification? I don't know about you, but I'm hoping for superpowers.

Motivation
So yesterday, the guy on the elliptical next to me was watching The Weather Channel.
The Weather Channel? Really? That's what motivates you?
Me?
I watch The Food Network.
I'm ok with the dirty looks that I get from my fellow gym-goers.
I almost always watch Food Network on the treadmill. Only one time they were showing how to make sausages, and I nearly gagged when they got to the casings...but otherwise I love to watch food while I burn it off!

=) Nice E. That's like someone taking a copy of Wine and Spirits magazine to an AA meeting. Funny stuff.
That is really funny. :)
One of my college roommates loved the Weather Channel. Loved it.
You know you're torturing people, don't you!

That's what I'm talking about, Emily!
