    Over a thousand stars are leaving home at the same time in the Constellation Ophion, and no one knows why. The constellation is one of the ones closer to our own, so we might have a star visit some day. Wouldn't that be exciting?

    A thousand stars are fleeing home in a hurry, and scientists don't know why

    You got to start smoking two packs a day, so you can be a hypocrite when he fights for his right to party. The circle of life.

    Oh man, nice work. I had all kinds of grand designs on shaping my kids’ musical tastes, and none of them stuck.

    Though I did score a different victory once when my daughter was around 5. She was asked an about brightly colored male birds and responded with a fairly cogent explanation of Darwin’s theory of sexual selection.
