This is why we are fat

This is why You're fat is a great blog catalogging photos of food creations that are grossly fat and in no way healthy.

One great example is this sandwich, "The Smoker". It contains a half pound ground ribeye, sirloin, prime rib patty topped with Havarti cheese, seven pieces of maple bacon, sauteed onions and smoked pepper mayo.

Or maybe you are interested in "The Royal Flush". That is just a pile of 3 sunny side up eggs, beans, red chile sauce, cheddar cheese, 4 corn tortillas and 3 hash browned potatoes.

Thanks Beautiful

Nomar returns but does anyone still care?

It was in 2004 that Nomar decided he wanted out of Boston. The sox then dealt him and won the World Series. It seems like everyone got what they wanted. I had ill will for Nomar those last couple of years, thanks to his clutch time pop ups. I enjoyed mockign him the next couple of years but at this point, who cares?

Mother's Day Failure

See anything wrong with this ad. At least for an English reading audience?

This was shown in an article on cnet.com about Mother's Day being promoted in Vietnam

Reunited and it feel so good.

2 young men bought a lion cub. They had to give him up after a year. The lion goes to a conservation in Africa. Several years later they go to visit him. No one is quite sure what would happen if the lion did spot them.

Here is what did happen.

New angle on Tiananmen Square's Tank Man

The NY Times recently had a very good article on the 4 images of the "tank man" of Tiananmen Square.

After reading that article Terril Jones contacted the Times to show them a picture he had been sitting on for years. That photo gives us a whole new angle on this man's stand against the tanks.
