Girl Scouts, Chuck Norris, the Pope and a smart kid walk in to a bar…

NEWS

- This kid as an IQ of 176 and he is 6, which is like a lot, I think.  He can name all the presidents, say the alphabet backwards, has a photographic memory and has probably never watched Barney or played.

- Here is a good marketing idea, fill up empty rooms that people can’t afford with people that are out of work and get a lot of free press for it…  If you are not illegible to win yet, you probably will be soon.

- Out of work journalists in Denver are starting an online news site.  It will offer free content that is ad supported and subscription based area with in depth features, columns and customization for under $5 a month.  It’s too bad that  their former employer, the defunct Rocky Mountain News, didn’t have a suggestion box in the break room.

HEALTH

- A study released says that obesity can trim ten years off of your life.  The Fox News article doesn’t mention the side effect of the heart attacks and broken backs your friends will get carring your coffin.

- If you’re huge fat Kristie Alley obese and want to get those ten years back, you could try the cookie diet.  Sadly, he is not talking about Thin Mints, although it would make sense.  Also, Samoas, as it turns out, do not contain any actual Samoans.

SEX

- The pope still hates rubbers.  No surprise here, because Catholics not making more Catholics is bad for business.  I have to go to confession now.

HA

- So Google has a little Easter egg built in… Try going to Google (It’s a search engine) and type FIND CHUCK NORRIS and hit the “I’m Feeling Lucky” button.   Gotta love when a bazillion dollar company shows they can have some fun.
