I just took Physics this year and for some reason the fact that they've discovered it intrigued me. During the whole semester we'd refer to this last piece of the model and now they'll have to change the curriculum (well not really).

The Higgs Boson particle walks into a Catholic church. The priest exclaims, “What are you doing here?”. The Higgs Boson replies, “You can't have mass without me”.
