How You Like Me Now, Punk?
Little old lady gets fastest connection on Earth. Hmmm. Who needs a really, really fast Internet connection in their home? Maybe someone who works for NASA? How about someone who monitors the security of nuclear stockpiles? Maybe a leader of a country? Forget them! The winner of the fastest ever home connection goes to... a little old lady in Sweden who doesn't even Ebay! As I keep telling folks, the world is not a fair and wonderous place; It's just the stage for a bunch of random events, and most of it smells like a dead otter that turned itself inside-out after a huge meal of rotting cabbage. Go take a nap.

Crazy Cat Lady
Which came first, the crazy old ladies or the cats?
We all know at least one crazy old cat lady. As it turns out, it might actually have been the cats that made them crazy. Scientists are looking into the matter, and there appears to be strong evidence that Toxoplasma gondii is to blame.

Celebrate Independence
See images of the original (U.S.) Declaration of Independence, written in 1776. Read the document that changed the course of nations. Even though it was clearly inspired by The Declaration of Arbroath or Scottish Declaration of Indepencence, which was written over four hundred years earlier in 1320, it raised yet another thundering voice in the eternal cause of freedom - a voice that continues to echo down through the ages.
