For anyone who missed last night's Cubs/Brewers game, a potential Catch of the Year. The Brewers were down by 4 in the bottom of the 5th, had the bases loaded, and Prince Fielder got up and belted one to the right field fence. Everyone thought it was outta there except for the Cubs right fielder Reed Johnson, who leapt up and snagged the ball as it went over the fence, thus robbing Fielder of his first ever grand slam.
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
An Exploration of Open-Mindedness
A video.
A look at some of the flawed thinking that prompts people who believe in certain non-scientific concepts to advise others who don’t to be more open-minded.
Perhaps useful to send to people you know.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I have like sixteen unpleasant things to do, and I don't want to do any of them.

Thanks, tommy, that's a great little animation to send to all the relatives who keep passing along dubious spam and then tell you that you're close-minded for not buying it.

What I want to know is, why does the Easter Bunny wear glasses? Is he not eating enough carrots?
