Let’s go for a swim! (Don’t forget your sunscreen!) A friend of mine discovered what may be the most horrifying cause of death in the history of the world.

I love that Snoop Dogg recorded an ode to Sookie Stackhouse. If you want to really know what the difference is between Apple and every other technology company, read what Daring Fireball said about FaceTime.

Four agencies that specialize in Internet marketing — 10e20, Search and Social, Infinitenine, and Brent Csutoras Inc. — are joining forces in a roll-up to form BlueGlass Interactive.

Here’s some excellent advice from Mike Rowe, of Dirty Jobs fame: “Don’t be that guy. Don’t wait for the world to acknowledge your accomplishments.” (He’ll also help you find a job.)

The fictional high school chorus at the center of Glee has a huge problem: nearly a million dollars in potential legal liability. What were we thinking about when we had all that extra time? Who wants to see the ruins of modern Greece? Glasses are the ultimate image changer. (via jim) Authentic, game-used baseball cufflinks […]

Starbucks To Begin Sinister ‘Phase Two’ Of Operation Is Schizophrenics Anonymous legitimate or some sort of sick joke? “You think I’m stupid. You think I’m immature. You think I’m a malformed, pathetic excuse for a font.” This week’s must-have hat is The Infidel. In prison Bernie Madoff doesn’t have to hide his lack of conscience. […]

Team owners Frank and Jamie McCourt paid a Russian physicist at least six figures — for five years! — to transmit positive energy to the Dodgers from his home in the Boston suburbs.
