12:09 am - Wikihistory "...everybody kills Hitler on their first trip." Found this story via the Girl Genius group, who found it via Boing Boing. http://www.abyssandapex.com/200710-wikihistory.html Very funny :-) Current Mood: amused Tags: geek, history, humour, weird shit

12:43 am - It went for how much!!!! Holy crap! Just reading a report from The Register where a first edition copy of The Hobbit has sold at auction for £60,000. Yes kiddies, POUNDS! I remember MANY years ago in the late 80s when my girlfriend at the time had wanted to buy me a very special present I had jokingly said that a copy of the first edition of The Hobbit would be nice. I didn't get it but at that stage one could be had for $8,000 Aussie dollars. If only my own income kept up with that sort of inflation. Current Mood: shocked Tags: books, geek, weird shit
