Weekend Links 8-14-20

Your Friday roundup of interesting stuff for your weekend.......

I have always heard that you can't train cats to do anything apart from using a litter box. I guess that is just wrong. 

This was never really up for debate: Sean Connery is the best James Bond of all time. 

You can build just about anything with LEGO including a grand piano. I love the fact that you can actualy play it. 

To Catch a Thief is arguably one of Alfred Hitchcock's best films (and a personal favorite of mine). Here is the story behind the novel that inspired the film that was based on an actual crime. 

Maybe it's because I love cheese that I found this article on how a cheese goes extinct so fascinating. 

Victory gardens were common during World War II as a way to contribute to the war effort. However, when the war broke out the U.S. Government was opposed to them. 

The history of the Ponzi scheme and the man whose name became synonymous with fraud.
