The internet is agog and aghast today at news that Russian billionaire Yuri Milner has paid $100 million for an estate up in Silicon Valley's Los Altos Hills, making it the largest single-family property transaction in U.S. history. (Has anyone made the Lap Giraffes joke yet? Probably.) We know you've got questions, and we've got answers.

It turns out Tyrannosaurus rex, the big, dumb badass of the Cretaceous Period, had a shorter cousin.

The LA Pony and Critter club held a one-day pony-ride event. Sounds normal enough, right?

There's no performer quite like Reggie Watts, known for mixing smooth R&B with complete absurdity. Here he performs his slow jam "Big Ass Purse," about - you guessed it - his girl's enormous handbag.

A Union Pacific train that was specially designed to remove snow from the tracks was put to use in Placer County, California recently. This is the first time its been used in 13 years. Global warming strikes again!

It's April 1st, the day when every office jokester and petty prankster thinks up some gags at your expense that they think will be hilarious. Well, not this year, jackass. Here's a guide on how not to fall for anything.
