1. Try the ATLAS detector.

It's the size of a 10 story building on its side. (Wish I could post pics on my iPhone.) The CMS is pretty damned large, too.

2. Higgs Boson walks into a bar

and the bartender says, "that'll be cash because you have no charge".

3. Higgs Boson: "The Force will be with it."

4. Same with me. Maybe that's why....

5. The hilarious misprint Dawkins wanted to keep

While discussing the Large Hadron Collider, Richard Dawkins talks about a hilarious misprint that almost made it into one of his books.

I spotted the misprint, and of course, I left it in; but alas, the publisher's proofreader also spotted it. She removed it. I begged her on my knees to leave it in. She said it was more than her job was worth.
