He doesn’t always drink beer, but when he does, he prefers Baltika. Or just plain vodka.

A Matter of Taste →
Apparently, this actually came out a year ago, but I just read about Fulvio Bonavia’s book, A Matter of Taste, in the May ‘11 issue of Mexican Elle. He does an amazing job transforming food into accessories.

Censura nuclear a Los Simpson →
Con lo nuclear no se bromea. Al menos desde el accidente en la planta nuclear de Fukushima, provocado por el terremoto y el tsunami que hasta el momento han dejado más de 11.000 víctimas mortales y unos 17.000 desaparecidos en Japón. Tres cadenas de televisión de Alemania, Austria y Suiza están censurando o revisando capítulos de la serie Los Simpson que contienen alusiones a accidentes...

Radiohead's 01 and 10
My mind has officially been blown for the day.
It’s called 01 and 10…ok, it’s not really a lost album. But apparently if you take the first five songs from OK Computer (from 1997) and the first five songs from In Rainbows (from 2007) and alternate them, the songs fit together musically and lyrically to form a coherent album.

Growing Dinosaurs →
“Last week, dinosaurs grew—some just a bit, others, like Brachiosaurus, quite a lot. That’s because researchers, publishing in the open access journal, PLoS ONE, found that dinosaurs had thick layers of cartilage in their leg joints, sometimes increasing their average height by 10%.”

It's Decorative Gourd Season, Motherfuckers →
“I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to get my hands on some fucking gourds and arrange them in a horn-shaped basket on my dining room table. That shit is going to look so seasonal. I’m about to head up to the attic right now to find that wicker fucker, dust it off, and jam it with an insanely ornate assortment of shellacked vegetables. When my guests come over...

Krakatoa →
This link is a year old, but the pictures of Krakatoa are still amazing!
This is doubly interesting to me, since I’m almost finished with Krakatoa: The Day the World Exploded. Between reading that and my upcoming Hawaii trip, I’ve really been stuck on volcanoes lately.

S'mores
So deep and ingrained is my dislike of chocolate, that when shopping for last minute camping supplies I thought, ‘Oooh! I’ll get s’mores stuff!’ Then I proceeded to only pick up graham crackers and marshmallows, without batting an eye.
It was only once we were at the campsite and I was relaying my s’mores purchases that I realized my omission. ‘I got...
