Something amusing for year's end: A Hands-On Approach to Studying the Brain, Even Einstein’s. Now, I find the mere fact that Einstein's brain (or at least some of the roughly 240 blocks it was eventually dissected into) sits in some mason yar in Canada utterly fascinating - but apparently that lump of genius grey matter has had quite a strange and eventful journey in the past 50 years anyway ...



On a related note - I hope Shrub donates his brain to science too. And no - I don't mean his back-up brain. I'm hoping for his real one. Just so that future generations of scientists can poke around in it and explore just how someone as dimwitted (and with such an idiotic grin) as him could have ever made it so far in life ...

Maybe I should run for office?
