Fashion Bones: Lay me down in the tall grass and let me do my stuff;

Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. The atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. I t is really the most poetic thing i know about physiscs: you are stardust. You couldnt be here if stars hadnt exploded because the elements - true carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution and from life - werent created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars and the only way from them to get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So forget jesus, the stars died so you could be here today.
