I don't even remember where I started.  I've played Bubblez; read  
about the Glastonbury Festival in Somerset, England; checked out a  
bunch of bugs on whatsthatbug.com and bugguide.net; learned of and  
researched Lundy Island and Flat Holm; found out that Naples has a  
cemetary with 365 pits which are opened once per day to receive a pile  
of dead bodies, which are mostly decomposed when each pit is opened a  
year later; that some cemetaries feature brick-lined graves that cause  
decomposition to happen far more slowly; people who deal with dead  
bodies typically have very few illnesses (!); there's something called  
Chilblain; infections were called "corruptions" in the early 19th  
century; the Pound is currently equal to 1.66 American Dollars; God  
only knows what else I stumbled across today in all my click-happy  
time-wasting.
But you know what?  This has been one of the best, most relaxing days  
I've had in quite a while... other than sitting atop Mount Battie in  
the mist, that is.
