Michael Jackson's passing reminded me to remind you of all the MarkThink Music Hall of Famers.  Today's Hall of Famer, Willie Nelson. Here's a little ditty for your afternoon enjoyment:

I was prepared to answer this question...and then I read Kateri's answer:

David Attenborough, obviously!

...He has friends around the globe, access to regions that otherwise would be off-limits (the amazonian treetops, the galapagos islands, shark cages, caves, etc), animals flock to him cuz they know he's the shit...

Happy Bunker Hill Day! Imagine being a farmer with fighting raging around you

I never had Bunker Hill Day off when I lived and worked in Boston. But that's no reason not to celebrate today. Here are some, um, helpful Bunker Hill Day Celebration suggestions from eHow:

Attend one of the stirringly realistic battle re-enactments staged in Boston and environs. And imagine what it must have been like to be a farmer, tradesman, housewife or schoolchild with fighting raging round you, day in and day out.
