The next time any of you go to the bookstore, I highly suggest you pick up this month's Mental Floss Magazine It's got to be one of the better issues they've ever put out, and I think all their stuff is excellent.
But this month has articles on:
Albanian Sworn Virgins and how they become patriarchs during a blood feud.
How Donald Duck invented polystyrene.
A genius chef/inventor who wants to invent plants that power our houses...and then we eat them.
How the Ice industry got started.
How Pomeranians used to be large and fearsome viking dogs.
It's totally ossim.
