Weekend recovery with a twist of tech
Good morning, everyone! I treated myself to that ‘industrial’ piercing over the weekend – let me just say this: Stupidity should be painful. And it was.
However it’s also super cute, so the fiery pain and the tattooed piercer wielding two 14-gauges – who had to put some muscle into it to actually get the job done – was worth it in the end. Now I just have to come up with a new name for it: An ‘industrial’ just doesn’t do the adorable-ness of the final product justice.
Anyway, enough with the talk of my own crazy attempts to feel cool at 30 – onto some headlines!
--Whoa. Look at Tom and Gisele’s new mega-mansion in LA. It’s … well, see for yourself, then vote in Captivate’s online poll. I’m interested to hear your take – especially considering she’s the United Nation’s goodwill ambassador for the environment.
--Money is going 3-D. No, seriously : - )
--I told you about NASA’s new images of the sun. They really are beautiful.
--Here’s a silly list of the 10 worst jobs in science – strangely entertaining in a gross-out kinda way.
--OMG, Apple apparently was pissed over the whole leaked-iPhone thing: They’ve gotten the local police involved. Yikes … someone’s getting fired …
--Aww man. Now how am I going to watch LOST during my lunch break?
--I seriously almost bought one of these over the weekend. I may still do it for my mom as a Mother’s Day/Birthday gift. Despite all her B&C to the contrary, I know she’d love it.
--A new frontier has opened on the laziness horizon: For those of you whose arms get tired of steering and whose feet would rather recline than push the accelerator (and I do know a lot of you), here’s your solution.
--Check out the newest video blog/report from our friends at CNet, featuring how flash and the iPhone no longer mix.
OK, I have to go put some sterile salt-water solution on my ear to douse the fire. Stupidity does indeed hurt – the things we do to be cute. See you back here Wednesday for some more hot headlines…
