Interesting thing I saw on the internets #1: dolphin kitchen techniques. Srsly! That's pretty fucking amazing. And when you consider that they have no opposable thumbs, it's making pretty good use of the resources available.
#2 (and interesting in a whole other way): Mike Nelson (of MST3K fame) is eating nothing but bacon for the entire month of February. Wow. I am truly in awe. Nullum magnum ingenium and all that...
