Best Carpentry Materials: 1. Wood. 2. Legos. 3. Silly Putty
Bad news for everyone out there who was eager to hold the third edition of the Oxford English Dictionary (that exceedingly portable 20-volume set of wordy goodness): Thanks to the rise of the Internet, the next OED will probably be online-only. Granted, OED3 is still about a decade in the making (according to The Telegraph , a team of 80 lexicographers have been working on it for the pas...
