But recently I stumbled across Eyewitness to History, a website which covers the ancient world all the way through [...]

My daughter found this game on the internet. You are supposed to use the letters Q W O P to make the athlete run down the track.
It’s quite funny trying to make him run, but we can’t seem to get the right sequence to get him to go any appreciable distance. It’s a lot harder [...]

Everything you’ve learned in school as “obvious” becomes less and less obvious as you begin to study the universe. For example, there are no solids in the universe.

I used to play the piano. One of the songs I was working on at the time I quit was Mozart’s Ronda Alla Turca, or the Turkish March. On the piano it’s a really complex piece of music, like most Mozart pieces, and I never perfected it before I quit. Anyway, some guys from Poland [...]

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.

The other is [...]
