And the Beat Goes On..

Some more of this and that..

I'm not normally a news person. I don't think I've sat down to watch the news in years. It's mostly depressing. I already know there's a lot of ugly out in that world, I don't need to flashed before my eyes every day. But I do like my quirky news. That little bit of Twilight Zone brought home. Sometimes it's scary, sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's just weird. Hell, at times, it can be all of the above! When I find that scary/funny/weird bit of news, I like to share it. And this is the perfect medium for just that. My collection of oddities.

Not that all of my links are about bizarre news. I've got a smattering of geekiness, be it music or science, and gossip as well. What do you expect? I'm in an industry that thrives on gossip!

Anyway, my point-- I do have one!-- is this: I've noticed that my links run along certain themes. The themes I listed above. I'm going to try to regularly post links for those themes or categories. Yay!

So here we go..

Science/tech geeks:
The new Quick Switch flashlight that takes batteries of different size! I'm so glad they finally came out with something like this. I never have D and/or C batteries on hand, but I always have AA batteries. Now if they'd make more electronics that did the very same thing..

For you, J:
Playboy will have an issue featuring Raelian women. Actually, it hits the stands today. You know you want it.

Politics (I swear you won't see this one often):
Who knew that the Bush family were such a kinky, drugged up family? Ok, I knew about the drugs. Who isn't familiar with Dubbya's infamous past? Or his daughters? But this should be an interesting book.

What a way to go:
I'm cringing at this one. Maybe because I've always been rather paranoid about helicopters in the first place. Lesson learned here: Don't go on expensive fishing trips.

Hee!:
Man pleads guilty to snatching hairpiece off diner's head. Of course, it was a bet. But it's funny enough that I would've done it for free. It reminds me of a scene in Jumping Jack Flash when Whoopi rips off Mr. Page's toupee while she's drugged up on truth serum. I love that movie!

That's all for today. Until next time, try not to snatch too many toupees!
