Friday Links Can't Do That, Dave

• Overheard in New York's most recent history-themed entry.


• This is more likely one for the "awesome" file than the "funny" file, but check it out anyway: in-depth video interviews with eight of the nine sitting Supreme Court justices. And where the hell were you, Souter? Hmm?


• The Smithsonian Air and Space Museum talks about some of the interesting detritus found in old planes.


• The 10 most strangely prophetic sci-fi movies. (Popular Mechanics)
  
• Here's another one that's not straight from the "funny" file, but is bizarrely fascinating all the same: a New York Times op-ed on the history of failed or botched executions in the United States.


• Finally, I got a great email from staff at the Sandusky Library in Ohio today, letting me know they enjoyed my site and pointing me to their detail-rich, absorbing Sandusky history blog. It's really quite a fun place. Check it out sometime!
