A Wunderkammer is a collection of curiosities–fossils, unicorn horn, odd rocks, etc.  Here’s my collection of odd links and bits of information.

A fascinating neolithic complex in the Orkney Islands of Scotland

The science of tickling.  I want a grant to tickle animals! Why do all the other researchers have more fun?
