Playing with your food? Shooting things at the White House? It seems like a recipe for disaster and/or arrest, but somehow Joey Hudy managed to play with his food while hanging out at the Executive Mansion and still get this look of amazement out of the president.

tomorrow, i'll finally be retiring my blackberry and entering 2010 by upgrading to an iphone. you're welcome. now. for some reason, every single iphone owner i've asked this question (liz, john, grace, etc.) has some lame excuse about why they can't answer it. maybe you can help.

can you just tell me how much data you use per month on average? i reckon i'll have to pick a plan, and i just want to be prepared.

thanks in advance for being soooooo helpful!

Budweiser is gathering groups of fans and bringing them to unsuspecting rec hockey games to give the players an nhl experience.

It reminds me of the improv everywhere story on TAL where they got a lot of people to come to a local band's show give them the show of a lifetime. Except, those guys were really bummed about it.

Practice, Practice, Practice

In the 1920s, Asahel Curtis was commissioned by the Washington state Department of Conservation and Development to create a series of colorized lantern slides for public presentations, designed to promote tourism and immigration to the area.
