Taking a break for lunch and rewatching the documentary "Particle Fever" on Netflix (SO well done). And I've been listening to Neil deGrasse Tyson's podcast Star Talk while doing chicken chores. So I suppose the theme for the weekend is particle physics.
I guess it's not such a stretch, since in the building of the LHC, CERN invented the internet, which allows me to be here talking about BURDS with WEBZ with you all!

It cost roughly $13 billion to build and run the LHC. The internet is estimated to be worth $19 trillion, and was just an interesting side effect. Pretty good return on investment...
