Now THAT'S a lot of baby!
Baby girl weighs in at nearly 14 pounds
That's just under the combined weights of the two Junior Chickens at birth. Ouch!

A novel way to avoid arrest...
Strippers scare off tree guards
I like the term "Tree Mafia". What, if you cross them you get the top of a Ficus in your bed?

It's about time...
That something I like is now good for me. Dark chocolate seen healthy for arteries.
True to JAMA's mission statement of "more medicine and bigger words" is this quote: "The dilatory effect of chocolate under resting conditions can be attributed to improved nitric oxide bioavailability, prostacyclin increase, direct effect of chocolate in smooth muscle cells, or activation of central mechanisms,"

Man Swallows Key, Locksmith Uses X-Ray
I'm not sure I buy the "accidentally swallowed the key" thing. And the article doesn't mention how many sixpacks these boys had had before the swallowing, either.

Those crazy Canadians
I mean really...Motley Crue and Gordon Lightfoot on the same bill? I'm hoping Vince and Tommy give ol' Gordon a beatdown for his trouble.

Marijuana-Flavored Candy
Ah, that sweet, sweet grassy taste. Heck, if they still sell candy cigarettes why not candy joints?
This stuff makes me tired...
OK, so I can understand that your religious beliefs might make you discount the Big Bang. And I can understand that you might want to go in for the whole "Intelligent Design" concept. And I understand that the theory of evolution is just that, a theory. But really...boycotting a movie because it MENTIONS Evolution? That's just crazy.

Potato Farmers Loathe 'Couch Potato' Term
Well, I think the term "Red Headed Stepchild" is disrespectful to us redheads, but you don't see me protesting for it's removal from the dictionary...

'You've got to find what you love,'
Jeez, and to think that for my graduation we had then House Speaker Tom Foley. And I don't remember him saying anything this cool!

Another way to cut polution
So Biodiesel is supposed to make your car's exhaust smell like french fries. I don't think I want to know what this little device will make it smell like. Seriously. I don't.

Apartment full of desiccated corpses
No, it's not a new band name, it's an actual apartment. And it's actually full of desiccated corpses. Or it was, anyway, before they took 'em away...
Nothing says "secretive religious sect" like leaving dead Grandpa in his bed for 10 years...yeesh.

Dedication to the 30-minute guarantee
Now this guy is one dedicated pizza man! I don't think I'd continue to deliver the pies after being shot in the leg...
Man's leg lands in yard
Man, there are some things you just don't want to find in your yard. I think this one is close to the top of the list.

Soilent Green
Is made out of tofu? Does anyone else find this just...wrong? I mean, sure, if you're trapped in a plane crash in the Andes I can understand having a nice long pig steak, but do we REALLY need a non-meat product that tastes like human flesh?
"If we could get a real headhunter to do a taste test that would be best," he says. In the meantime, you'll have to take his word for it.
Maybe he can send some to that German guy to get his oppinion.

Gauss Rifle? Gauss Rifle!
Here's a cool demo of how to build a Gauss Rifle, if by "Gauss Rifle" you mean "Ruler that shoots steel marbles". Still the concept is the same - magnetic acceleration of a metal projectile. Sweet...
