The end of the year in links

Thank God this year is almost over.

Wired has the top crimes of 2008.

In September, a robber disguised as a gardener pepper-sprayed an armored car driver using a pesticide sprayer and ran off with a bag stuffed with $400,000 in cash. When police arrived seconds later, they found the sidewalk crowded with dozens of men decked out in the same attire as the perp: blue shirt, Day-Glo vest, safety mask and glasses. While the cops hacked through a forest of suspects, the real perp fled to a nearby creek and escaped in a waiting inner tube.

I used to get upset because Wizard Magazine always had Wolverine on the cover. But Time has them beat with Obamamania.

Yes, Virginia there is a Santa Claus and a $99 iPhone.
