Still having a Strange Interlude. Have some New Things while I chase this stupid Muse around with a chainsaw:
- New Thing Learned for 22 November: Iceworms eat the algae and bacteria living in the ice with them. Just in case you were wondering, which I was right before they said it. [Source: documentary on Denali?]
- New Thing Learned for 23 November: Someone actually thought it was a good idea to make a movie about a vampire motorcycle. Let's not all go rushing to add it to our NetFlix queues at once... [Source: Wikipedia.]
- New Thing Learned for 24 November: Humans grow three distinct sets of kidneys in succession during fetal development. I always knew "Intelligent" Design was a crock... [Source: Body : the complete human : how it grows. how it works, and how to keep it healthy and strong.]
- New Thing Learned for 25 November: Nisus Writer Express lists "captain hicks" as a possible thesaurus replacement for "six". I'm guessing it's cockney rhyming slang, but it still seems unnecessarily obscure. [Source: this program has an odd turn of mind in general.]
