Next up: the laughing stock

Americans pride themselves on their judicial system. So much so that they sue each other as often as they can, just so they can keep up to date on the latest schools of thought in modern law. Pretty much everyone is in agreement that our judicial system has come a long way since the days of the scarlet letter.

Then, there is Alabama.

Who steals from Wal-Mart in the first place?

Cocaine is off the streets

It’s a sad day for all those strung out on caffeine. The energy drink Cocaine, which you heard about here first last September, is being pulled from the shelves because of its name. For those of you who don’t remember that well because you were crashing when you read it before, Cocaine claimed to give you over three times as much energy as other energy drinks.

Obviously, its name has drawn some criticism from anti-drug groups, because we all know soft drinks are not allowed to have names based on actual drugs. Guess it’s time to break out the razor blades and mirrors again.

One small step for mankind …

… at least five or six hundred smaller steps for those monsters. Of course, maybe it’s more of a death march for them, instead. Oh, and they’re monsters, all right. Ever had a picnic ruined? Lost food on the ground? Had your hand smell really weird and icky after smushing one?

Remember people, in the War on Animals, there are no rules. Chemicals weapons are A-OK. Besides, we’re humans. As such, we’re bigger, higher up on the food chain and invincible.

She has eight arms to kill you

Shocking news today, an aquarium in New Zealand has what could be a freakishly intelligent octopus. “Octi” is so smart it can actually lift the lid off of its tank and escape at any time. We must keep this octopus in isolation, before other aquatic creatures start learning. Like raptors in Jurassic Park, it’s only a matter of time before it learns to open doors.

Key quote: “Octi can open a plastic bottle filled with crab meat in less than 2-and-a-half minutes, using the suckers on her tentacles. She sometimes rises to the top of her tank and squirts water at her keepers, hitting them right in the eye.”
