Hearing Do You Really Want to Hurt Me -- Culture Club
Hey, I'm here to enable your clicking behavior. Here's what we have today:
* Even subliminally, pictures of naked people get our attention. Heck, anyone who's seen Fight Club could have told you this. But now it's backed up by science!
* Did you know that US Customs can take your laptop and go through all your files? Neither did I, but now I can think of files I should probably take off my computer before I go on a trip out of the country. Hey, stop looking at me like that.
* You know that weird metallic smell coins have? Turns out, it's not the coins that smell.
* Are solar power panels on the roof going mainstream? If Home Depot has anything to do with it, maybe. I'm all for this, personally, although I'd like to see solar panels become a little more efficient -- they're getting there, but they're not quite where I'd want them to be.
* Oh noes! The deer are coming for us! And they want our salt!
* The coolest "blast from the past" article you'll see today: A Popular Science article from 1921 that applies science to Babe Ruth's baseball swing. Turns out, the Babe was a genetically-engineered cyborg from the year 3000! Well, no, not really. But it is a good explanation.
