Just plain weird
Ew.
“[Ryan] Haddon once stabbed [husband Christian] Slater with a broken wineglass and also flew into a rage two years ago when he was caught in the couple’s Vancouver rental home getting his back shaved by topless strippers.”

Funny. I noticed one of these just this morning, on a young woman in the Brooklyn Bridge/City Hall station, but I hate to disappoint you: I failed to notice whether it was bezeled in faux diamonds.
Kids these days
Back in my day, happy slapping was something a boy did in the privacy of his bedroom.
That’s more like it

MacMorons
Leander Kahney’s latest piece from the floor of Macworld is amusingly trite. Here are highlights:
And there are concerns about the changing face of the Mac tribe: Hordes of new iPod users may be sullying the Mac experience.
Mac tribe? How might members of such a tribe distinguish themselves from the sullying hordes? Let’s ask this Dutch fellow:
Koen Van Tongeren, a student at the University of Amsterdam who is writing a thesis on Mac fan culture, said he was disappointed by the lack of Apple haircuts and tattoos.
Goddammit. I guess the Mac tribe will just have to wear T-shirts like everyone else.
What about the Mac Mini, though? Let’s ask Tim Allen:
Kevin Krank, head of the service department at Texas A&M University at Corpus Christi, said he wasn’t impressed with the Mac mini…. “Anything small enough to put in a backpack doesn’t belong on a college campus,” he said.
So I guess this means no laptops or handhelds in Aggie-land, eh, Mr. Krank?
Older than dirt
Ben Hammersley notes that he’s older than Superman. Perhaps Ben will take some comfort from knowing that Superman is older than Superman.
Oh, look…
…it’s the fugliest thing ever:
Teleflora’s motto is Send flowers and show someone you care. My motto is, if you buy Thomas Kinkade “art,” please slice off your genitals.
Gazette readers blow it on 69
Readers of satire site Hoosier Gazette apparently didn’t catch the satire, judging from this collection of recent letters.
Indiana highway is immoral
Hostettler mounting campaign to change the name of Interstate 69
John Hostettler, the Congressman representing the 8th district of Indiana, has been convinced by local religious groups to introduce legislation in the House that would change the name of an Interstate 69 extension to a more moral sounding number.
[It's a hoax, folks. Don't you think the proximity of "mounting" to "69" would be a dead giveaway? Seriously, though, in a country that changed U.S. Highway 666 to U.S. 491, I can't blame people for believing the hoax.]
