Not Intent on Arriving

This is pretty darn funny.  More political links, on this pre-election day, to come.

Vodpod videos no longer available.

Introducing the new logo for the upcoming Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) coming next January:

Well, what do you think of it?

1) Hope For the Planet: Scientists announce plans for a degradable form of styrofoam made from milk proteins and clay.

2) Awesome Mini-Documentary On The Pizza Man: Dom DeMarco has been making pizza for Di Fara in New York City for more than 40 years. Now, one filemaker has immortalized his work in a film short.

3) Want a Bigger Penis?: If you rely on spam to get it, too bad. Russian authorities closed one spam e-mail site in September and the number of spam messages worldwide decreased by one fifth.

4) Don’t You Hate Drunk Dials: Yeah, me too. Especially when they come from ex-Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor at 1 a.m.

5) What Are The Odds?: The Israeli lottery selects 36, 33, 32, 26, 14, 13, and the additional ‘strong’ number as the winning numbers for a drawing. Those same numbers were picked three weeks before. The odds: 1 in 4 trillion.

6) “Interesting” Search Terms Lead People to Site: Mother Jones records 12 recent Google searches and the articles those searches linked to on their site. People search for weird things.

7) John Lennon Tribute: There have been many this year. But this from British rapper Dan Bull is awesome.

8) Really Early Picture of Human Found: Scientists find two figures lurking in this early photo Cincinnati.

A man was shot just one block away from Pike Place Market, one of the busiest tourist spots in Seattle.

It’s also really close to my work. And the suspect was found right outside one of the bus stops I take to go home. Scary.

In other scary news. There was a murder just blocks away from my home in Bethesda. It appears the police have nabbed a suspect, though.

The New Yorker published a great article about why global warming legislation failed to clear the Senate. It’s lengthy, but engaging and shows why Lindsey Graham is one of my favorite GOP senators.
