Oh snaps.

Welcome to the internets. Where most of you spend countless hours during the week. We get paid to sit in front of the computer and pretend to do work, but really, we're finding out what Lindsay Lohan had for breakfast and googling awkward pictures of cats. Here's a toast (a blog toast because drinking is NOT allowed during work...) to all of you 40 hours a week craftsmen. Because let's be honest, we are all craftsmen. Do you know how hard it is to quickly exit a facebook browser?

Russian Meteorite

WHOA.

Did you hear about this meteorite that hit Russia early Friday morning? Flying over the Russian skies and breaking up over the city of Chelyabinsk, the meteorite unleashed an incredible amount of shock among citizens, injuring at least 1,200 people, collapsing roofs and breaking windows. 

It's being reported by the Russian Academy of Sciences that the space-object was moving at around 10-12 miles per SECOND and may have exploded under the pressure of its own weight. It likely weighed about 10 tons. 

Because Russia is a place where many residents have car dashboard cameras (???), there were many videos recorded of the meteorite flying over the sky. Watch a few of them below.
