For the Birds

Here is the straight line (you provide the punchline): Apparently, scientists at the £3.6bn Large Hadron Collider (LHC) found their plans to emulate the big bang postponed this week when a passing bird dropped a "bit of baguette" into the machine, causing it to overheat. Awesome!

(Tip of the cap to Heidi Eldenburg Bramlet, although I took the liberty to use a news source other than Fox News for personal reasons.)

On second thought, I'd rather not risk being a troll. Even if I think I'm being funny. (re: deleted comment)

Mason -- I'm using the rule of thumb that if I'm showing less tact than you, I should stop and thing about things for a moment. :P

Heh, I thought that comment was pretty funny. :)

Besides, even with my lack of tact, some people like me anyway.
