Boy Kills 1051-lb. Pig

Giant rabbits are for funny looking dictators. I'll save my amazement for giant pigs.

Meet Monster Pig. An 11-year-old Alabama boy used a pistol to kill a wild hog his father says weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9-feet-4 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail. Think hams as big as car tires.

If the claims are accurate, Jamison Stone's trophy boar would be bigger than Hogzilla, the famed wild hog that grew to seemingly mythical proportions after being killed in south Georgia in 2004.

...Jamison is reveling in the attention over his pig, which has a website put up by his father that is generating Internet buzz.

Bacon Buttie = Goodness

British scientists have come up with a formula for the perfect bacon buttie -- a sandwich that's basically a floury roll, thick-cut bacon, butter, and sauce. Here's the formula, right down to the Newtons of force required to chew into the bacon:

N = C + {fb(cm) . fb(tc)} + fb(Ts) + fc . ta

This could be the coolest scientific discovery ever. More (including a handy key for understanding just what the hell that formula means) here from The Sun.
