Daily Links - February 18, 2012

On this date in 1564, Michelangelo died in Rome. The other teenage mutant ninja turtles were never the same. Also on this date in 1885, Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was first published. Little known fact, Twain’s mustache is still alive and well, and working as a toupee in southern California. Consider this an Open Thread.
