What a moron, it actually says New Yorker! And I even read that part twice :P. Sorry guys.

Great portraits! Small correction, though: they are from the New Yorker, not the New York Magazine.

Wake me when something actually good for mankind happens.

"Medical", yeah, right.

That's exactly what I first thought on seein the picture! :D

Now that's one of those Nelson from the Simpsons' "Ha-ha!" moments.

Creepy indeed!

I remember having read a nice chapter on the Musical Offering in Douglas Hofstadter's book "Gödel, Escher, Bach".

This is great! What could go wrong?

It still remembers December's foggy freeze, when the ice that clings onto its beard was screaming agony!

"The Guinness logo is an accurate depiction of the real Brian Boru harp, but the harp on the Euro is a mirror image. This is because Guinness copyrighted the logo."

Mmmmm.... the coat of arms of the Republic of Eire, the great seal of the Irish Free State, the Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom and the flag of Leinster all show the harp in the same fashion as the Euro coin. That "copyrighted harp" thing looks more like a publicity gimmick by Guiness to me. By the way, that harp is a beautiful symbol.

Oh how so freakingly goddamn cuuuuuuute!

All the cops in the donut shop saaay: "wheeeo, wheeeeooo, wheeeeeheeeheeeeooooh"... Walk like an Egyptian!

And we couldn't let this one go without saying:
"I, for one, welcome our new tubificid overlords"! :D

No one can make a cockroach cute or likable. Yuck!
