Daily Lynx (Friday Style)

Since I've been gone for a couple of days, and since there's a weekend (although: there will be posts on the weekend), anyway, here is a super-sized Daily Lynx:


1. Everything you ever wanted to know about why your spouse (not you; no, not you!) snores, and what you can do about it. Warning: it's kinda gross.


2. Hyperion's Public Service Awareness: can you name all 46 countries of Europe? The quiz gives you ten minutes and a map (without names, of course). Spelling counts. Don't cheat! At least, the first time. I myself did not get them all right initially (two misspellings; one just forgotten), but I persevered and took that test again to get it right.


3. You know that wallet that Jules has in PULP FICTION? You know that Bad Mo***r F****r Wallet? Now you can be a bad M****r F****r too. If you're buying me one, I'll take dark brown.


4. Want to see a human photograph created digitally? It will creep you out what they are able to do now. On the plus side, it's a wedding photo. You know what the means, ladies. You can have the wedding photos, even if you don't have the fella.


5. Ever wondered how Picasso created all his paintings? Now you can too with this great aplet: Mr. Picasso Head. Feel free to post your results. (Mine looks too much like a Chernobyl baby for me to.)


6. Social Consciousness Awareness Day. The next time you are in the grocery store, remind yourself of what other families around the world spend on food. You might be surprised.


7. Finally, in our conspiracy of the week, possibly the year, we find out that NASA has been lying to us about Mars. (The planet, not the god.) Have they been lying about life on Mars? Uh, no. Have they been lying about finding water? No, not that either. Something much much more sinister.

And those are your daily lynx. Enjoy.
