Miscellaneous Trifecta

A few interesting tidbits for a Monday morning:

Librarian.net gives us a heads up that you can literally check out lesbians at the library in Sweden. You know, for dispelling prejudice and whatnot.

The Onion notes that fundamentalists are rejecting the reality of gravity and are pushing for an alternative to be taught in schools: Intelligent Falling.

Lastly, the NYT has a round-up penned by Christopher Hitchens of new pirate histories. Aaaarrrgggh. I picked up The Pirates Lafitte immediately upon reading the article. More to come on that one.
