Take a look at what the web had to offer last month.  Enjoy!

  1. What are the hidden costs of hamburgers?  Fuck cows, that's what.
  2. If this doesn't make you cry you are a heartless bastard (with no appreciation of the power of engineering design).
  3. This is the surface of another planet in HD.  Let me repeat that.  This is the surface of ANOTHER EFFING PLANET IN HD!
  4. What would Yiayia think?
  5. Here is a look at the Top 20 Most Influential TED talks.  I love TED.

  7. Now, this is how you send off fallen warriors.
  8. Thanks for keeping it weird, Japan.  What the actual fuck?
  9. Alicia reads "Leaves of Grass" by Walt Whitman.  Wait, what is going on here?
  10. I never knew Spencer Tracy was so awesome.  He's my new hero.
  11. Here's a PSA for Republican women.  Seems legit.

Miscellany:

  3. Here you go, Lotto Dorks.  Stop wasting your money.
  4. Ever think you've had too much coffee?  Drink so much Red Bull that you can see into next week?  How much is too much?
  5. Hey, what are you pointing at?
  6. Here's a sweet site that let's you dig deep into our very weird past.
  7. I sincerely hope this catches on.
