Random Tidbits

For all of you bored at work or home this holiday, here's a cute puzzle to try.

There's a guy who's been trading up his one red paperclip to eventually end up with a house. He's now up to a 3-day trip to Yahk, British Columbia... it's up for trade if you have anything good to offer!

I watched 21 Grams this weekend and it was pretty good. The movie was actually filmed in sequence but followed a non-linear narration. The ending scene had an interesting quote:

How many lives do we live? How many times do we die? They say we all lose 21 grams... at the exact moment of our death. Everyone. And how much fits into 21 grams? How much is lost? When do we lose 21 grams? How much goes with them? How much is gained? How much is gained? Twenty-one grams. The weight of a stack of five nickels. The weight of a hummingbird. A chocolate bar. How much did 21 grams weigh?
