http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halifax_Explosion
Today's the 97th anniversary of the Halifax explosion, which was, until the Trinity test at Alamogordo, the largest human-created explosion ever recorded. Really hard to fathom the devastation.
edit: It's also the 25th anniversary of the Ecole Polytechnique massacre. Christ, 6 December is one crappy day historically for Canada.

God, that massacre was horrific. It genuinely hit be in the gut when it happened, being a woman and a college student.
Got a Rake? Sure!

Re: What are you looking up on Wikipedia right now?
Such an utterly insane event. As awful as Lepine's actions were, that all the men left is horrible. I try not to judge them too harshly—self-preservation and all—but to abandon your classmates like that is unsettling. *None* of them were willing to stand up for those women? A lifetime of regret, I hope.JennyB wrote:God, that massacre was horrific. It genuinely hit be in the gut when it happened, being a woman and a college student.

Doesn't the fact that there have been responses disproving all the conspiracy claims prove that the conspiracy is much deeper than we could ever imagine? Think Draconis, people! Think Freemason false flags! Think Isis cult trying to raise Atlantis!Rat Patrol wrote:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_landi ... y_theories

I'd heard of the euthanasia rollercoaster and Emperor Norton before (the latter via a Ripley's Believe It Or Not book I had as a kid).

One of the most interesting wikipedia articles I have ever read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Hanssen
It has it all -
Super catholic involved with Opus Dei decides to sell government secrets to the Soviets and later Russia. The "Investigation and Arrest" part of how they figured out the mole was quite good too. And then for no reason, as if the story wasn't interesting enough, they add this gem:

However, there was a second side to Hanssen's private life much as there was a second side to his professional life. At Hanssen's suggestion, and without the knowledge of his wife, a friend named Jack Horschauer, a retired army officer, would sometimes watch the Hanssens having sex through a bedroom window. Hanssen then began to secretly videotape his sexual encounters and shared the videotapes with his friend. Later, he hid a video camera in the bedroom that was connected via closed-circuit television line so that his friend could observe the Hanssens from his guest bedroom.[62] He also explicitly described the sexual details of his marriage on Internet chat rooms, giving information sufficient for those who knew them to recognize the couple.[63]
Hanssen frequently visited D.C. strip clubs, and spent a great deal of time with a Washington, D.C., stripper named Priscilla Sue Galey. She went to Hong Kong with Hanssen on a trip and on a visit to the FBI training facility in Quantico, Virginia.[64] He gave her money, jewels and a used Mercedes, but cut off contact with her before his arrest, when she fell into drug abuse and prostitution. Galey claims that although she offered to sleep with him, Hanssen declined, saying that he was trying to convert her to Catholicism.[65]
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

I sent this article to my friend: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Your_Black_Muslim_Bakery
His response, " there was so much extortion, child rape, kidnapping, and murder, I'm surprised they had time to actually bake food."

Trying to find different music and nothing new interests me. So I've been looking to the past:

Easter and Wave are amazing. The albums before are hit and miss for me.
