Sound and fury, signifying very little in the grand scheme of things

aka the highlights of another Sunday morning in Feed Hell. Not a lot them this week, but most of the news was boring, the battery icon on my laptop is red, and I have to pee.  Enjoy.

  • Today is International Friendship Day and the world’s silliest old bear is the Ambassador. Aww.
  • We’ve survived this week’s record-breaking SUNami but not without a record-breaking amount of whining. Seriously, you have not heard whining until hear Seattle during a heat wave.  At least we got some good photos out of it.
  • All the feminist blogs are posting furiously about the most recent corporate-sponsored female body image crisis: cankles.  I should be joining in the outrage but I can’t stop giggling. It’s the word, I guess. “Cankles.” Heh.
  • Because marriage is sacred except when that’s no longer convenient, Sarah Palin is getting divorced.
  • Apparently cussing can help alleviate pain.  See? Science is proving that we potty-mouthed folks are in touch with our inner mutherfucking healer.
  • Speaking of mutherfucking, this Colbert Report video is also in heavy blog rotation these days. Nobody mocks fatherfuckers better than le Colbert.
  • It’s beginning to look a lot like Summer of Death, and I’m getting tired of it. There’s only so much losing of icons in a single season that one can take. RIP Walter Cronkite.
  • A friend of mine turned me on to this craft (and I use the term loosely) blog. I did the whole snort-coffee-up-nose thing when I saw this post.  If your sense of humor is even slightly warped, check out this blog immediately.
