35 lb. bag of vomit left in parking lot

There aren't really any words for this.

He estimated that about 35 pounds of vomit was in the package discovered June 5 and stated that a similar package was left in the same spot the week before.

How to apologize

Ignoring for a moment why he needs to apologize, Tracy Morgan offers a pretty good one. Public figures that screw up could learn a lot from watching this video. It's sincere, and there are no qualifiers. The, "I'm sorry to anyone my words may have offended" qualifier is the worst.

If it wasn't for the internet, most of us would never see videos like Jthis. Happy Sunday.

elBulli chef joins…Pepsi?

I don't know if anyone saw this coming... Ferran Adria, chef of elBulli, is going to be working with Pepsi on whatever it is that amazing chefs do for giant food companies. I like Coke better, so this is frustrating.

My Heart Is An Idiot

My Heart Is An Idiot is a "romantic documentary" that follows Davy Rothbart around as he looks for love. This is an excellent name for a movie and I'm bummed I miss the screening in Boston.

Along the way, Davy seeks advice on his tortured love life from people he meets (Zooey Deschanel, Ira Glass, Newt Gingrich, Davy’s mom, and others), and attempts to follow that advice, with comic and surprising results.


Sharks don’t like AC/DC?

The 2nd headline of this story says, "Eyre Peninsula's Matt Waller has added another tip to the 'don't get eaten' handbook with his discovery that Great White's are much less aggressive when listening to ACDC - particularly 'You Shook Me All Night Long'," which seems awesome. However, this is the kind if irresponsible shark journalism our species can ill afford. Further down the article, they talk to a shark expert who said,
What Matt has come across I have seen in other species of sharks particularly in remote areas where sharks maybe haven't come into contact with people or boats before and just the slightest noise will actually bring them in to see what that new thing in the area is.


That's basically the exact opposite. Those of you about to sew a MIDI device playing 'You Shook Me' may want to hold off.

Playing with sharks

I have 2 things to say about this.
1. Don't ever do this.
2. Don't ever do this.
