And Now for Something Completely Different...


We're hopping off Hadoop, rolling out of R, and clearing our memory of in-memory for a moment to bring you something delightful that we simply had to share.

"The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, isn't 'Eureka!' but "that's funny..." -- Isaac Asimov

UPDATE -- 9/12/12 4:26 p.m.

Have a great Wednesday...
