The first three letter one the interwebs (aka "the Internet", nee "ARPAnet") were "lol".

The intent was to type "log". But something crashed after just "lo". This was followed by "log". Thus, "lol".

Things you learn on the marconi wireless.

Very few words have a birthday so precise, and so precisely known, as couch potato. It was on July 15, 1976, we are told, that couch potato came into being, uttered by Tom Iacino of Pasadena, California, during a telephone conversation. He was a member of a Southern California group humorously opposing the fads of exercise and healthy diet in favor of vegetating before the TV and eating junk food (1973). Because their lives centered on television--the boob tube (1966)--they called themselves boob tubers. Iacino apparently took the brilliant next step and substituted potato as a synonym for tuber. Thinking of where that potato sits to watch the tube, he came up with couch potato.

Rugby World Cup School Holidays
The usual length of each school term has been adjusted for 2011. Terms One and Two are slightly longer than usual and Term Four is two weeks shorter. This is to align the October term holiday with the final stages of the 2011 Rugby World Cup Tournament.

steve is this true about oregon

The only four places that today openly and legally, authorize active assistance in dying of patients, are:
Oregon (since l997, physician-assisted suicide only);
Switzerland (1941, physician and non-physician assisted suicide only);
Belgium (2002, permits 'euthanasia' but does not define the method;
Netherlands (voluntary euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide lawful since April 2002 but permitted by the courts since l984)

woke up to 3/4" of water on 1/4 of my kitchen floor. dont know how to solve that equation. fortunately i tracked down my landlord before he set out to atone for his sins. not sure if god is trying to tell me something but ive started to construct an ark out of flexible straws and duct tape just in case. i might not be able to save myself but at least the mice will survive to reset the evolutionary process.

in other news i was given a ball that rafael nadal used at the us open this year. no provenance or signature to verify the claim though. so, i got that going for me.
