Things Caught in the Web

Now they've come up with a genetically engineered bacteria to clean your teeth . Just... interesting, I suppose.

OK, someone noticed that yesterday's date was a palindrome , if you write it as day, month, year. (ie 20/02/2002 or 20022002.) The article, however, seems to be confused and says that this won't happen again for annother millenium. Except in the year 2112.

Now someone is having problems with an Iron Age reality show because the participants are unhappy with the lack of amenities. Which part of the world "reality" do these people not understand? I'm more confused by the existance of iron age reenactors anyway...

The latest airport security follies are in New Orleans, where the airport was evacuated after the bomb sniffing dogs alerted on a package. A package of gumbo . (As Emril would say... "Bam!") Why are the dogs trained to find gumbo anyway?

Ever wonder what mythological creature you would be ? I'm an orc, apparently.

Something about gravitational waves . I know all of these words, but this just doesn't parse.

Ever needed to know where to go when you're on the go? Check The Bathroom Diaries

Bulls Balls . There are some things that I will never understand.

Somehow, a moose got stuck on the roof of a shed and had to be rescued . A moose. On the roof.
