Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
Saturday, January 31, 2009

It's just like Pride and Prejudice, except with zombies.
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies features the original text of Jane Austen's beloved novel with all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie action. As our story opens, a mysterious plague has fallen upon the quiet English village of Meryton—and the dead are returning to life! Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace, but she's soon distracted by the arrival of the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy. What ensues is a delightful comedy of manners with plenty of civilized sparring between the two young lovers—and even more violent sparring on the blood-soaked battlefield as Elizabeth wages war against hordes of flesh-eating undead. Complete with 20 illustrations in the style of C. E. Brock (the original illustrator of Pride and Prejudice), this insanely funny expanded edition will introduce Jane Austen's classic novel to new legions of fans.Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Classic Regency Romance - Now with Ultraviolent Zombie Mayhem!
Update: Also: Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters and Android Karenina.

Girl marries dog to drive away evil spirit
Saturday, January 31, 2009

Only in India.
In India’s eastern Jharkhand, locals in the Munda Dhanda village have ‘married off’ one of its children to a stray dog because they believed her family was endangered by a malevolent spirit that could be assuaged in no other way.Link (w/ video)
The ceremony was performed to the beating of many drums in the belief that it would help to overcome any curse that might fall upon the unfortunate family.
In an odd twist of fate, the girl will be free to marry a man later in life without even seeking a divorce from her four-legged husband!

America's most popular big cities
Saturday, January 31, 2009

For Nearly Half of America, Grass Is Greener Somewhere Else:
Where would Americans most like to live — and how do they feel about the place they currently call home?via
A new national survey by the Pew Research Center’s Social & Demographic Trends project finds that nearly half (46%) of the public would rather live in a different type of community from the one they’re living in now — a sentiment that is most prevalent among city dwellers. When asked about specific metropolitan areas where they would like to live, respondents rank Denver, San Diego and Seattle at the top of a list of 30 cities, and Detroit, Cleveland and Cincinnati at the bottom.

Road kill on Google Maps
Friday, January 30, 2009

Sad pictures on Google Street View: a baby deer hit by the Google Street View car itself, while taking the pictures. Unfortunately, accidents happen...
Google Maps link (the picture has been removed since).
Here's Google's response:
Gathering the imagery for Street View requires quite a bit of driving; as such, we take safety very seriously. Unfortunately, accidents do happen -- as some people have noticed, one of our Street View cars hit a deer while driving on a rural road in upstate New York. Due to several user requests using the "Report a concern" tool, these images are no longer available in Street View.via
The driver was understandably upset, and promptly stopped to alert the local police and the Street View team at Google. The deer was able to move and had left the area by the time the police arrived. The police explained to our driver that, sadly, this was not an uncommon occurrence in the region -- the New York State Department of Transportation estimates that 60,000-70,000 deer collisions happen per year in New York alone -- and no police report needed to be filed.

Was there any Holocaust?
Thursday, January 29, 2009

An excerpt from an interview with Bishop Richard Williamson, a member of a strong Catholic congregation, who actually denies that the Holocaust ever happened, at least that 6 million Jews were executed in gas chambers in the concentration camps. Maybe around 100,000 or 200,000. And he brings his facts.

The interview was taken on Jan 21 2009 for a Swedish TV. More about Bishop Williamson - here

MSN Money:
ISO Quality Planning, the San Francisco company that studied the records of 1.7 million drivers, compiled a list of ticket magnets that confirmed some long-held notions: Owners of the 507-horsepower Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG and similarly muscular CLK63 AMG received outsized numbers of tickets, as did the generally young owners of the relatively inexpensive Scion tC, xB and xA, and the Audi A4 sports sedan.Here they are:

Man smears feces on his lawyer
Thursday, January 29, 2009
Metro.co.uk:
A mistrial was declared at a court in San Diego after a suspect in a robbery smeared human faeces on his lawyer's face and then threw more at the jury.
Weusi McGowan, 37, became enraged when Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Fraser refused to remove Deputy Alternate Public Defender Jeffrey Martin from the case.
During the break, McGowan produced a plastic bag with fecal matter and smeared it on Martin's hair and face. He then flung the bag towards the jury, hitting the brief case of juror No. 9.

Woman exchanges Monopoly money for Danish money
Tuesday, January 27, 2009

Oldest trick in the book: exchanging fake money for real money. This woman went to the bank and exchanged some Swedish Monopoly kroner for some real Dutch kroner. And it may have, but not twice.
The fraud attempt began on Thursday, when the woman entered a branch of the Nordea bank in Svendborg and handed over two fake bills. When the teller failed to spot that the Swedish bills were far from authentic, the woman walked away from the counter with a cool 1,400 Danish kroner ($240), local newspaper Fyns Amts Avis reports.Link [via]
Branch manager Ulrik Feveile Nielsen told the newspaper that an inexperienced staff member had been manning the cash desk at the time.
"As long as humans are involved, mistakes will happen," he said.
But rather than quitting while she was ahead, the woman had another roll of the dice and returned to the bank the following day with a further eight thousand "kronor" in Monopoly money.

Best of Craigslist: To the woman that crapped in my car
Tuesday, January 27, 2009
Craigslist:
We met on Craigslist so I am hoping that this post finds you. I know that it could quite possibly be the most humiliating first date that you have ever been on, but I am willing to look past that.via
I thought we had chemistry sitting at McMenamins sharing that basket of Cajun Tots while drinking the Terminator Stout. I really felt like there was a connection there. I found you to be intelligent and witty and looked forward to further conversation with you.
At some point in life, everyone has gambled on a fart and lost. It just happened to be on a first date in the passenger seat of my car. Please don’t feel bad. The package I sent you with Pepto the next day and the note that said “First dates are always a crap shoot. Call me” was meant to be funny, not offensive.
I have gambled on a fart and lost on multiple occasions. The first time I did it was very memorable. It happened when I was five and sitting on my uncle’s lap. I am lactose intolerant, but love cheese. I probably win 95% of the time, but I don’t think anyone wins 100% of the time. That’s why they call it “gambling”. I’m the last person to judge you for crapping your pants. In fact, I am impressed by your boldness. The timing on the other hand, could have been a tad bit better…like when you’re not sitting on a heated leather seat…
What I am trying to say is that if you want to go out again, I would be more than happy to take you someplace where we can get a meal that is high in fiber and less taxing on the digestive tract.
I await your call,
Tad
P.S. - If you shat yourself on purpose to end the evening early…Touché…
