This is a bit dark even for me.... villian action figures from the war on terror, including the corpse of Uday Hussein:

I'll take my class action fees with sprinkles on top, please. If I ever practice mass tort litigation, someone feel free to set me on fire.
Here's a great article on Vernon Smith and experimental economics and another by Smith on how to give Iraq back to the Iraqis. Good stuff.

An interesting article on the origin of "Murphy's Law".

[Chuck] Yeager responds gruffly, “That’s the way rumors get started, by these people…who weren’t even there... Guys become, if you’ll pardon my expression, sexual intellectuals.

Although I believe The Brunching Shuttlecock scooped em by several years (damned if I can find it on the site though...), I still find this Onion bit on Idaville Detective 'Encyclopedia' Brown pretty "fits-of-giggles" funny. I read way too many of these stories as a kid and have many fond memories of the live-action HBO show.
Apparently, even the Russians have standards.
Short on cash?
