Happy Birthday to Roger Federer, definitely one of the greatest tennis players of all time!

Interesting article from the Fly on the Wall podcast about the honeybee die-offs occurring. This could have big consequences on the ecosystem in the future considering how honeybees are responsible for pollinating plants. If all the honeybees die, then we’re going to have massive food shortage problems which is very disturbing. Link

Earned $14.50 online today while watching two doomsday documentaries: A Comet Strikes the Earth & Causes Major Devastation and Could An Asteroid Impact Event Cause Mass Extinction on Earth ?. Fun.

Also digging the YouTube’s video player update. The progress panel looks very sleek! They did a great job.
