Testing crappy TV products to see if they work
A useful site, and one I wish I'd found for the boyfriend before he tried using Epilstop to avoid shaving. Ouch.

Movies from Disney rides
They're making movies based on Country Bear Jamboree, Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. Given how much time I spent in all three of those, I'm curious to see how they come out.
Ooh, this sounds fun: a Real World movie. Get the plot, it sounds hilarious.

Who gets to hit who?
Interesting points this article makes: a woman can hit a guy a bunch of times and is much more likely to get away with it, but a guy could never fight back without getting arrested ASAP. Women are always assumed to be the weaker one, and that's why it's regarded so badly when they're hit, but not so much when they hit back. Food for thought, I guess.
(I'm not saying it's okay for anybody to hit anybody, btw. It's just pondering the abused man dilemma. At any rate, I've had friends on both sides of the equation.)

There are a whopping five women on SNL, which actually sets a record for most women ever. Also setting a record is the pregnant Ana Gasteyer.

The Singapore government set up a website to determine if you're addicted to sex.

Would you want to have to do all of this just to keep your job?
After this guy started having marital problems, his bosses said he had to (a) go to church weekly, (b) eat dinner as a family five times a week, (c) not drink, (d) sleep with his wife every single night, and (e) pray with her at the start and end of every day, or get fired.
What the HELL ever happened to having your own life outside of work where you could do whatever the hell you felt like, I'd like to know? How on earth would they even know he did these things, unless they planted spies or something? Gah.
2000 of us left the media this year. Though I'd guess that 1,999 of us left for reasons other than this guy's...
How do you manage to keep your newspaper in business and people employed? Hint: not by being overly moral and religious...

That whole congratulations vs. best wishes for your engagement thing.
You know, in all honesty, I just do not see why this is such a big deal, or why it's fine to congratulate a guy on his luck and skill in bagging the girl, but not the girl for bagging the guy. Didn't they mutually bag each other here? (At least, I sure hope so.) Who gives a damn any more?

Hollywood and Vine
In which Sars writes advice for celebrities. I attempted to read the "Salutations Pussycat" letter aloud to my boyfriend over the phone and laughed so hard that I couldn't speak, my stomach hurt, and I actually cried. ("Breathe, dear.") I never got much past the vibrator part, and sadly he has no idea what the hell I'm laughing so hard about. I'm still having to restrain myself from giggling too loud when I read it now at work.

Petition to make Sept. 11 a national holiday.
I found this somewhere where people were arguing vociferously against trivializing the day by making it into a day off. I can see their point, but I have to admit that it doesn't seem so bad to me. Those who are all emotionally broken up by the day won't have to suffer through work pretending to give a damn, and others can get cheered up by a day off. Then again, I really feel that this workaholic, 2-weeks-vacation-if-you're-lucky country needs more national holidays, and I'd probably support National Buy More Cheese Day if I got a day off in which to do it. (Though I wouldn't go quite so far as to support National Celebrate Child Molesters Day.)

Finally, decent pointe shoes!

Bill Clinton suspiciously shops for bikinis
He claims they're for Chelsea, but come on, (a) what fathers do you know who buy bikinis for their daughters at any age, especially when (b) the girl's over 21? And since when does Chelsea need bikinis in ENGLAND, anyway? I don't buy it for a second. Not that I care at this point if he cheats, mind you, but how dumb is it for you to mention this to a reporter?

Adultolescents- we can't afford to go it alone any more.
Believe me, I'd love it if I could. I'm not quite as bad as the people in this article (I haven't had to move home, but yes, I've had to take their money for food/health insurance/etc.), but really, what else can you do if circumstances stink?
Apparently Italy has the same problem, only over there parents don't get much financial benefits from having kids AND they have to support theirs until they find a job they like. Period. Too bad my Italian dad wouldn't go for this...

Judging on sight, not sound.
This is a good article, but this is what sticks in my head: Instrumentalists audition behind heavy screens, so judges can't be swayed by anything other than how a player plays (the floor is even padded to mask the sound of high heels). Good lord, even hearing a woman's heels would cause them to be judged negatively?! Gah.

The pot and the kettle.
So Hugh Grant thinks it's unmanly of Tom Cruise to pose topless on a magazine cover. Well, Hugh, I've got an issue of Talk that I bought specifically to see YOU shirtless in, which you were. And just because you had a shirt half-on on the cover of it doesn't get you off the hook here.
(He's cute, but not that bright, I suspect.)

No more sex for Britney.
Oh, I weep for the future.
(Updated:)She denies it, but I still suspect it's only a matter of weeks. (And gawd, someone gave Angelina and Billy Bob a baby?) Seems like she's having a rough week, between this and the whole pee thing.
Mentioning Britney anywhere in an article is almost guaranteed to up readership! Whee, more hits for me! :P

Honestly, I think this is just wrong.
I don't care how very, very badly you want a child for the last few years of your sanity, I think this is a horrible thing to do to your child. Yes, I realize that accidents happen and in those cases there's no guarantee that Mom'll grow up to survive your childhood- but in this case, it's well known she's only got a few good years left and then she diminishes and dies. I would so not want to put a child through that and traumatizing them at an early age when I could have avoided the entire thing. Hell, I've got a deteriorating parent and it's hard enough to deal with in my twenties. It's gotta be an absolute horror to smaller kids. This is just cruel.

Damn, and I can't believe she got away with that.
