Agrarian scientists have run tests about the resilience of beetroots. One type consistently outdid its competitors and took over their territory. It shall henceforth be known as the Alphabeet.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Well, I suppose this is the closest I'll get to an appropriate opportunity to post his pic.



I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I had missed that the drummer of Bolt Thrower had died this year. :(

"Bolt Thrower," you say, "isn't that a weapon in Warhammer 40k?"

Considering some of the band's album covers, I have a feeling this might not be entireley incidental. :P

Sinead O'Connor has been having some weird mental breakdown on Facebook for the past month and has been posting incoherent (mostly) ramblings on her Facebook page.

Here is her latest:

Quote

That was perfectly coherent.
