Joseph Pujol, a man of singular talent, was born in Marseilles, France in 1857. In his early youth it became clear that he was a natural entertainer, singing, dancing, and performing for his parents' house guests. He had a love for music, and over the years he became handy with a trombone, but it was a different wind instrument that led to his eventual fame and fortune. Damn interesting Wikipedia

Translation error confuses Welsh cyclists. I'd be confused by a sign that said "bladder inflammation overturn" too.
Yes, I'm watching a documentary on wacking inventions. The documentary claims that the Davy Crockett nuclear rifle's effective range was smaller than it's lethal range, but Wikipedia does not agree.

I've been trying very hard to not comment on the takeover attempt under way at my former employer, TOWER software. It's getting kind of hard when the directors start suing each other in court and the case is reported. I guess this sort of behaviour explains why TOWER is still a 20 year old startup. Bias note: I am a former employee of TOWER Software. I have previously stated that I hold shares in TOWER, and feel no ill feelings over my departure from TOWER. However, this childish behaviour and the low probability of the shares appreciating in value in the foreseeable future (the share price has been stagnant for four years) has prompted me to accept the takeover offer, and I will soon hold no more shares (I hope).
On my random surfing kick the Wikipedia page on the Unabomber is interesting too.
