People may look at you, wondering. But there’s more: birds may also look at you, wondering. If you want to know what pishing is all about, there’s even a training video for you! Just here.
And I know, I should explain more what is to be expected after the link, but that would really spoil it [...]

Les fruits. Les fruits c’est bon. Les fruits c’est bon pour toi. Et tu le sais bien (il suffit de regarder la télévision, écouter la radio, voire prendre le métro.
Pris d’une soudaine envie de pêche (et manque de bol, la saison vient de s’achever), il me vient cette question saugenue: est-il des fruits meilleurs que [...]

Well, breaking news for me at least. Weird things happen when you’re busy searching for references. You may be stuck by some really peculiar development of scientific research, one you would barely have thought of. Like this one. Plant autophagy.

Rock pinks, members of a species known as Dianthus sylvestris, are long-lived perennial herbs that are rather common throughout the Alps. The species is gynomonoecious-gynodioecious, and now that you know about plant sexes, you translate this rather tedious jargon into the following greeny sexy sex taxinomy: this species has female-, hermaphroditic individuals, and “undecided” (gynomonoecious) plants [...]

That is, they don’t leave their leaves…

Un peu de lecture, fort intéressante au demeurant…
Sur le déclin de la France, ici. Si cela ne tenait qu’à moi, je vous dirais bien que la situation Outre-Atlantique n’est pas aussi fameuse qu’elle en a l’air, mais bon, ici vous avez des chiffres en plus! Et c’est bon, ça, les chiffres.
