Today's Stumble: (Youtube Clip) Bertrand Russell's Message To The Future
Today, instead of going shopping or buying your gourmet coffee and luxury piece of bread for $6, collect some fallen leaves, odds and ends from your kitchen's Random Drawer (every kitchen has one, so figure out which one yours is and grab something interesting from it) and find some sort of adhesive so you can make a craft.
