Stella Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Anyone know if this wonderfully useless cool thing is available in NZ anywhere? Am totally getting into Darwin and evolution right now. Need to find a copy of On the Origin of Species. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc360 Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Didn't Darwin marry his cousin??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenna Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Haven't seen it here, but there are a few copies on amazon right now. ranging from 9.45 US$ to 11.99 US$ - one of them is even still unopened. Shipping looks pretty reasonable with them too - 4.99 US per item Have a quick look at TM for the Origin of Species, there seem to be a couple there.

Stella Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Nope, they are brand new, not retro. It is my bid on the copy of On the Origin of Species Spoon, I think you will find it is possible to talk about evolution without it turning to religion, but not about intelligent design....

Stu :) Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: Maybe someone else with my train of thought/humor??? :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/cubegoodies/a7f1/?cpg=ab Would be my best bet... And don't forget to get yourself a Darwin fish - http://evolvefish.com/ or two as they seem to magically walk off the car :evil: For the book try - http://www.abebooks.com/ ...then I'll start you on Carl Sagan Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted January 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Stu, Evolvefish is a favourite site of mine! My first order: Car emblems: evolvefish, darwinfish, isis Buttons: "oops I forgot to have children" "sorry I haven't been to church, I was practising witchcraft and becoming a lesbian" Vinyl cutout sticker: evolvefish Cloth patch: evolvefish Metal lapel pin: evolvefish. Yes I had noticed your avatar I haven't put my emblems on a car yet. Isis is on my motorcycle. I wanted her as a representation of how I felt as a bikerchick: woman with wings! I got the evolvefish to put on when I eventually get my full license. Unfortunately I lost the lapel pin, it broke off somehow. The "oops I forgot to have children" one gets the most comments of all my badges on my bag (which includes a few darwin ones courtesy of the Auckland museum) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Did you know Darwin was also the founder of a society for tasting new animals unknown to the human palate? The Darwin exhibit at the Museum last year was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu :) Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 GOSH GOLLY! My kind of girl... swoon... A favorite T-shirts of mine is 'I think, therefore I'm dangerous', 'Sorry my pet dinosaur ate your pet god', and the of course the Caffeine Molecule. Stu, Evolvefish is a favourite site of mine! My first order: Car emblems: evolvefish, darwinfish, isis Buttons: "oops I forgot to have children" "sorry I haven't been to church, I was practising witchcraft and becoming a lesbian" Vinyl cutout sticker: evolvefish Cloth patch: evolvefish Metal lapel pin: evolvefish.... If you need more let me know... I need some more Darwin fish sooner then later. Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
