The Lemming Takes a Vacation

Editor's Note:

It has come to our attention that Lemming has taken an unexpected, and unannounced, vacation. We apologize for the absence of a post last week, and regret any inconvenience which this may have caused.

In lieu of the regularly scheduled post, we present an infographic which the Lemming left on his desktop, together with a somewhat enigmatic note which read, "having a great time, wish you were here."

Now, without further ado, the previously mentioned infographic:
