Rain w/intermittent volcanoes

I've just found my new favorite website of the moment. It's "Science Made Stupid", and it's an abridged version of a book by the same name (written by Tom Weller in 1985). Unfortunately, the book isn't in print (though it is available through used-book purveyors), but the website certainly gives you a good idea of how absolutely hilarious the book is. I love the geologic time scale provided in the "Tables and Charts" section:

Geologic Ages and Events

TIME (BP) in millions of years	ERA/EPOCH		LIFE FORMS	GEOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENTS
5000	Atonal		Rocks	Mountain ranges upthrust; continents form
3000	PRECOCIOUS
	Catatonic		Gree slime	Earthquakes and volcanoes
	Prophylactic		Green slime w/ orange spots	Volcanoes and earthquakes
505	ORTHOPEDIC
	Accordian		Seashells	Torrential rains
425	Pedestrian		More seashells	Thunder and lightning
360	Freudian		Slimy things	More rain
325	Artesian		Slimy things w/ tentacles	More thunder and lightning
280	Pestiferous		Nasty crawly things	More rain, oceans form
230	Obstreperous		Lots of nasty crawly things	Rain w/ intermittent volcanoes
205	METATARSAL
	Cryptic		Big warty things	Swamps form
165	Styptic		Really big warty things	Hot, drifting continents
135	Creosote		Warty things too big; start over	Even hotter, lots of mosquitoes
75	CRETINOUS
	Obscene		Little hairy animals	Cooler, 20% chance of comets
	Uglyscene		Big hairy animals	Windy, small continent warning
39	Vaseline		Animals w/ silly horns	Cold, w/ night and morning glaciers
28	Listerine		Animals that don't understand about tar pits	Fair inland, patchy fog near coast
12	Ovaltine		Shree trews	Great weekend for a barbecue
1	Plasticine		First homonyms	Smog alert
25,000 years ago	Recent		Modern person; first Republicans	Freeways upthrust; suburbs form
15 minutes ago	Very recent		Computer nerds emerge	Fast-food chains develop

Gotta watch out for those warty things. Actually, this reminds me of Uncyclopedia's Geologic Time Scale page, which enjoyed a brief popularity in my undergrad geology department. "BIG HONKING GAPOZOIC" was the new answer of choice that semester for people who had trouble remembering geologic eras. (I also highly recommend the Geologist entry, which I and many of my classmates contributed to. If I remember correctly, I'm responsible for the part under "How to Spot a Geologist" about outcrops and 8-lane highways. Memories.)
