When I was home (Minnesota) a few months ago, this 'kancho' act was all the rage with my 12 year old nephew and his friends.  I blame Naruto.

That is actually probably a pretty good place to put the blame. As I recall, the character Kakashi has an attack that's nothing more than a glorified Kancho called "1,000 Years of Pain" or something.

Never heard of them, and I would think I would have heard of the two gayest people ever.

Korean Air Lines Flight 007

There's something fascinating about being to read word-for-word what was being said by the key players during one of the biggest incidents in the cold ward a quarter-century after it happened. Also the way that a picture of shoes can be so chilling. And the description of the remains and how they were found.

Have you ever wondered about Charizard's cultural impact?

Here's about a page about lamest Pokémon in the franchise.

And here's a man who's claim to fame is being oldest rookie to play in the American Basketball Association.

Finally a page about dance music that debates about whether James Brown is dead or alive.

I stumbled across some blog's page about Cliff Young, a 61 years old sheep farmer who won the Sydney to Melbourne ultra-marathon in 1983 by running 544 miles in five days, 15 hours and four minutes without sleeping.

"Bullshit" I muttered to myself as I typed the name into Google.

Well, shut my mouth.

It's the 1800s.  A man named Charles-Édouard Brown-Séquard is going around town telling everyone that all motor function exists in the brain, and operates through the nervous system alone.  You're an up and coming French physician, and you don't agree with Mr. Brown-Séquard, but you need proof.  What do you do?

Well apparently if you're Paul Loye, you build yourself a guillotine and decapitate literally hundreds of dogs and other animals.  It might sound horrifying, but hey, at least you were right.

Quote from: horrifyingly depressing cat wikipedia page
Historically cats have been eaten in the West. [1] In Europe, cats are eaten in some rural parts of Switzerland;[9] the traditional recipe on farms in some regions involved cooking the cat with sprigs of thyme.[10] In January 2004, Reuters reported that, "Swiss culinary traditions include puppies and kittens. Private consumption of cat and dog is permissible. Swiss animal welfare groups say it is hard to estimate how many pets end up salted and smoked or in a Swiss frying pan each year."

I am now convinced that the Swiss are the evilest motherfuckers on the planet.

This article is in need of attention from an expert on the subject.
