I often stand in awe at the machinations of the cosmos. Take for example the fact that coffee and scotch balance each other out... (whoops, same joke was used on Fark)
The town of Blue Springs, Colorado received over a quarter million in federal dollars to study the dangers of Goth. That's a lot of glow sticks. (via Hit & Run)
Nell Boyce and Susan Brink of U.S. News delve into the secrets of sleep. I for one await the day when biotech will eliminate, or at least reduce, the need for slumber.

Friend Mark links to this political personality test produced by the Harvard Institute of Politics designed to gauge where college students stand politically in relation to others. I took this test a couple weeks ago and was told I was a Traditional Conservative, despite the fact that I "strongly disagree" with over half the attributes it ascribed to me. There's either been a major change in the definition of "traditional," or this proves that the current political landscape is artificial and built on patently false premises. Thank you Harvard for further perpetuating the lie.
