Oswald's Mill and "I Believe in Sciiiiaaance"

So I decided I want to live here when I grow up. Okay, at least visit or pine after it.
Oswald's Mill in New Tripoli, Pennsylvania
Outside. Ahhhhh!



I just want you for my own. Is that so horrible?


I learned something interesting today. To demonstrate my point, please oblige me in looking at these two pictures of the same woman.





Oh, hi. Ok, which is more attractive?

Well, supposedly if you're a girl, you don't really care as a rule (although I did think one was more attractive--I chose correctly). If you're a guy, you choose the larger pupil. Every time. Proven. Males have a built-in biological preference to girls with large pupils, which is odd because (drum roll...) girl's pupils are their biggest when a girl is ovulating.

Ewww gross! It's like a subconscious "trying to pass on the family crest" thing or something. I don't think of attraction in scientific terms as a rule, but it is a HYURGE part of it. It's crazy. Science and the human body and the way they work together are absolutely insane. I apologize if this seems off-color; this stuff just fascinates me.

I should have been a biochemist for sure. Damn those little testing rats.
