Remotely Interesting Info
Have You ever just see something and you're like "what the hell is going on here?" and then you do a little digging online?
Well I do that kind of thing a little compulsively...and often at 1am.
Sometimes I find stuff that blows my mind or is just too interesting not to share...
So I decided that instead of just impressing (or more likely: annoying) my family and friends I'd try my hand at making some videos.
So now I can impress/annoy a far larger audience.

Time's Person of the Year for 2003:
The American Soldier
From a report on the issue (December 29th, 2003 to January 5th, 2003):
Time magazine’s Person of the Year for 2003 was actually many people: the 1.4 million men and women in the U.S. military, which invaded Iraq and captured deposed leader Saddam Hussein.
The troops were singled out as the top newsmakers of the year because “the very messy aftermath of the war made it clear that the mission had changed, that the mission had not been completed and that this would be a story that would be with us for months, if not years, to come,” Time Managing Editor Jim Kelly said Sunday.
The magazine glorifies the soldiers but not the Bush administration for putting them in Iraq, calling troops “the bright sharp instrument of a blunt policy,” and leaving it to scholars to debate “whether the Bush doctrine is the most muscular expression of national interest in a half-century.”
The selection echoes 1950, the year the Korean War began, when the magazine’s editors picked the American GI for the cover, writing that “it was not a role the American had sought, either as an individual or as a nation. The U.S. fighting-man was not civilization’s crusader, but destiny’s draftee.”

They spent $20 million dollars to return the Orca from “Free Willy” to the wild…a Norwegian politician said that this was a waste of money and they should have killed the killer whale and turned it into meatballs to feed children in Sudan…
