"Sigur Ros" = "Elephant Orgy"?
Did she just wink at me? I could have sworn she just winked at me.
"Obama" and "O'Biden", huh?
Susskind says the universe is really a hologram isomorphic to info on the 2D cosmological boundary. But why stop at 2D? I say I'm a line.

Sometimes I couldn't always pinpoint what facial or body characteristics were the giveaways, but I definitely recognized them. I wondered about the few families that must have seeded the populations of each nation or region, and for how many centuries most of their descendants have largely stayed put. This genetic study produced a visualization of this very phenomenon. - Jared Jacobs
