Catch of the Day

What kind of pirate am I? Apparently this is one of those voting things. Go here and put your vote on whether or not yours truly is a heartthrob pirate, software pirate, crafty ship's captain, scurvy sea dog, or woman pirate. Wait a minute. I know what you're all going to put down so never mind.

Mystery compound in beer fights cancer and Booze boosts brainpower. Don't we see these kinds of articles every couple of months or so? With the news's obsession of the stuff, you'd think that people are just trying to justify their closet alcholism.

Like It or Not, Blogs Have Legs. An article about how the blogosphere has changed the way people read news and communicate on the internet. I'm not sure why Wired would publish something as old hat as this, though.

Bacterium infected 3 at BU biolab. "Three Boston University researchers became ill last year after being exposed in a laboratory to a potentially lethal bacterium called tularemia."

20 Strange and Wonderful Books. Arg! More books to read. My to-be-read list is already way past unmanageable.

Life, Reinvented. Another Wired article, but this one is about the intersection of biology and engineering. Some way cool stuff.

How weird are you? My weird quotient is lower than average. So this means most people are weirder than I am. But...if everyone else is weird, that doesn't really mean that I'm normal, does it? Normal means being average, like everyone else. If being weird is normal, than I'm the one who's really is weird, right?
