Sheep Gives Birth To Monster Baby

02/14/12 -- Wacky News

“The date was Monday, January 22, this year. The news suddenly came into town at about 5pm that a monster-like creature had been discovered in a sheep’s womb during an operation carried out by some veterinary surgeons in the state. Daily Sun gathered that the inability of the sheep to deliver made it necessary for the surgeons to carry out the operation, after which the sheep was delivered of the monster baby that looked half-human. The scene which took place at Fakon Idi Veterinary Clinic, drew thousands of onlookers that trooped out from different parts of the metropolis to catch a glance of the strange being. It took the intervention of men of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NCDSC) in the state to disperse the huge crowd who were demanding that the owner of the animal should come out to explain what led to the mystery birth even as they insisted that the owner must be probed and possibly executed.” w/ photo

World’s 1st Computer Game Celebrates 50th B-Day

02/14/12 -- Pretty Cool

“MIT students celebrated the 50th birthday of Spacewar – one of the earliest computer games, written in 1962 on an MIT computer the size of a fridge. The game was written by four students in 1962 on a PDP-1 ‘minicomputer’ – last week, MIT students built a new version that ran on a palm-sized electronics rig, based on the original code programmed 40 years ago. It was one of the earliest computer games, and arguably the forefather of all arcade-style space games… The game is the ancestor of games such as Asteroids. Spacewar became a cult hit, being played and adapted by computing students around the world.” w/ photos
