A little holiday cheer

Click here to see how our Free Will Friends from Florida have contributed to the obligatory spreading of joy that the holiday season is all about. Or perhaps, as John Fischer suggested to me, this is what Michael, Al, and Randy must resort to in a desperate attempt to compete with the charms of UC Riverside. (Though it certainly has made me second-guess my decision to come to UCR...)

Be warned: clicking that link will lead almost immediately to an outburst of laughter, so click at your own risk, and probably not in a library, where I was the first time I saw it.

(Thanks to Chris Zarpentine, grad student at FSU, for putting this together. And thanks to Michael, Al, and Randy for their good humor.)

Wow. Chris might have to watch his back for a while. The FSU department has a history of elaborate pranks.

Amazing how responsive this is to their philosophical views. Sometimes Al and Michael are in step, sometimes Randy is in step with Al, but they are never quite all together.

[Brandon Warmke]

Haha, oh my. Michael will definitely be getting it in seminar tonight!

[Justin Capes]

Will there be a live performance!? Perhaps we could add one to the Free Will & Science conference in January.

I'm just wondering why Randy got stuck with the elf with no rhythym!?

[Fritz Warfield]

Michael looks believable in this role. Al looks like a borderline case of believable. Randy looks completely unbelievable.

[Rico Vitz]

That is both quite amusing and mildly disturbing. (Perhaps the latter contributes to the former.)
