Inane.
Bored? Stressed? Missing the single great Soviet contribution to office productivity? Saunter over to the Infinite Cat Project and stack some cats.

and if you're really bored, go find out how the battle of five forks was lost because of some fishes. (I learned about this from a cookbook.)

Good ol' General Pickett. That man knew how to fight a war, clearly. According to Wikipedia Lee eventually relieved him of command, but:

At the same time that Lee relieved Anderson of command, he took the same action regarding Pickett and Bushrod Johnson, but the order regarding Pickett apparently never reached him. As late as April 11 he signed himself, "Maj. Genl. Comdg." Lee thought the order had been given Pickett, and when he saw him later he is said to have remarked, "I thought that man was no longer with the army."


It's 22:00 p.m. Do you know where your generals are?
