Overnight Open Thread – (Mætenloch)

Genghis is temporarily offline tonight due to computer issues. Something to do with his Tandy 386 and a fishing-line modem (?). His last few emails were pretty garbled so we're sketchy on the details other than that he's not here and is now defenseless against all online slurs and calumnies.

Anyway after the flame war tonight's theme is Reconciliation and Make-Up Commenting.

Here are a few items for your enjoyment:

Item #1: 16 Famous Man Myths Debunked
I believe all of these except maybe the baldness one. I vaguely recall reading an article a while back that some of the male pattern baldness genes live on the X chromosome which means that they do come from your mother. Of course coming from a long line of monkey-men, MPB is the least of my concerns.

Item #2: Bacon in a Can!
Kind of disgusting at first, then yummy. And it's good for 10 years.

Tonight's post brought to you by some kids with a big dream:
