More Junk for Thursday

Excuses people give to the cops when they are busted for speeding. I was once in a car with someone who was doing about 90 mph in a 65 mph zone and when she got pulled over she was shocked. She thought people didn't get pulled over unless they were going 100 mph or faster. She told the cop this. He gave her a ticket.

Count Bismarck died the way I hope to die (and almost did in the past).

And finally! Someone puts a name to something I've been experiencing for years. Phantom vibration of your cell phone. Via Valleywag.

Also from Valleywag, some insight on the Facebook/Microsoft/insane-valuation stuff. Pretty good insight, at that.

And an utterly bizarre and random video of some girl in the 80s doing a really bad job of playing Star Wars on the trumpet. Much funnier than it sounds. Or, not really, actually.
