Post subject:  Interesting Wikipedia articles! One per post!

Ok so here are the rules. One Wikipedia link per post and dont do more than one post in a row.

When Im bored at work I like usng the "random" link and trying to find an interesting artcle. I figured it might be fun to have people link different artcles on topics that people might not read normally. Interesting topics please (as subjective as that is). Im not looking for the History of Spider-man. Im not looking for information on a Band ive never heard of or crap like that. Im talking about interesting stuff that you probably wouldnt read about unless someone here posted it.


Heres my first link and a good example.


Hung, Drawn and Quartered. Its an expression people uses these days and something not many people actually know about. Its pretty insane to me that people actually did this to each other.

Richard Dawkins

Coined the term "meme" as well as pimp slapped Ted Haggard on the topic of evolution not long before Haggards gay prostitute/lover called him out.
