Week 70 of mental_floss blogs

Lessons learned this week:

  1. Everyone enjoys Wii. There are no exceptions.
  2. Hendrick's makes a fine gin. Also the little pamphlet that comes with it makes the drinker feel special.
  3. When beach-walking, I prefer the Hard Sand over the Soft Sand.
  4. Not everyone you meet on the internet is insane. Weird, maybe, but not with criminal intent.
  5. When researching, it's full-text or nothing.

And now, the blogging.
