People of Walmart
If you haven't noticed.... weird people go to the Walmart. Here's a collection of pictures of them online. So you can get the experience without endangering yourself. Plus, the captions are very nicely done. Like this example:
"It’s like those shorts are managing to cover nothing and everything at the same time."
I really want them to add a rating system so that they can have a "favorites" area to see the best of the best of the Walmart-goers.

Geek Clock
GEEKS!
12 - the cubed root of 1728
1 - Legendre's constant is a mathematical constant occurring in a formula conjectured by Adrien-Marie Legendre to capture the asymptotic behavior of the prime-counting function. Its value is now known to be exactly 1.
2 - A joke in the math world: An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The first one orders a beer. The second orders half a beer. The third, a quarter of a beer. The bartender says, "You're all idiots," and pours two beers.
3 - A unicode character XML "numeric character reference."
4 - Modular arithmetic, also known as clock arithmetic, is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" after they reach a certain value.
5 - The Golden Mean...reworked a little.
6 - Three factorial (3*2*1=6)
7 - Repeating decimal that rounds up to 7.
8 - Graphical representation of binary code.
9 - An example of a base-4 number, which uses the digits 0, 1, 2 and 3 to represent any real number.
10 - A Binomial Coefficient
11 - An example of Hexadecimal encoding.

New format
Considering a new format.... of only posting 3 times/week
Monday : illusion day
Wednesday : food day (ex. the oreo thing)
Friday : cute/funny picture day (ex. the moose)
And on each of those three days there will be other posts too of course.
Any comments?
