Hearing Starlight -- Muse
Some things for your brain. Also your spleen, although it won't appreciate them as much.
* Five steps to being more photogenic. Oddly, "have a fully-body swap with Angelina Jolie/Brad Pitt" is not one of the steps.
* How kickball is sweeping the nation. That's for grownups, not kids. Interestingly, a friend of mine has played kickball in an adult league for years. Personally, I think it's just all about that bouncy, bouncy ball.
* How serious are the British about the "no cell phones" rule on flights? This serious.
* More people can name two of the seven dwarves from Snow White than two sitting members of the Supreme Court. I say we solve this problem by renaming Antonin Scalia "Grumpy."
* Suicide by toilet paper. Man, that was one determined suicide.
* Mammoth sperm, frozen 27,000 years, may be viable. Understatement of the millennium: "Research has indicated that mammalian sperm can survive being frozen for much longer than was previously thought."
* The Seven Types of Web Searcher. Frankly, I would hate for someone to try to fashion a pattern out of my Web searches. I do so many for writing work. I would come across as more or less insane.

I broke a girl's nose playing kickball in third grade. It's a long story, but it segues(?) well into the "how I got my first black eye" story once you take into account my thinking that kicking a ball into a girl's face was funny, and telling her so..

Hi John :)
Antonin Scalia as Grumpy = ROFLMAO!
How about...
Samuel Alito as Dopey? :)
Always, Carly
