Hump Day Hodge Podge

I'm still all stuffy and talking fubby. It makes doing phone interviews with sources extremely embarassing. I already sound like a hillbilly with my Texas accent and then add the congestion to it and I hate to make phone calls. *sigh*

So, here is a hodge podge of tidbits to ponder for the day and my two cents thrown in for good measure:

1. Apparently, nanotechnology is on the rise: From toothpaste to trousers, dozens of everyday products contain materials made through the blossoming science of nanotechnology — but laws safeguarding the public's health and safety aren't developing nearly as quickly, according to a new report. Few will say whether the nano materials, often hundreds of times smaller than the diameter of a human hair, are unquestionably safe or dangerous given the lack of definitive research into the matter.
My Take: Remember what happened on ST:TNG when Wesley unleashed the nanites on the Enterprise?

2. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are expecting a baby.
My take: First off, who gives a shit? Second, I hate people who cheat on their spouses and the people who cheat with the cheating spouse. Third, there is a child destined for years of therapy. Fourth, Brad Pitt is an asshole. Cute, but an asshole.

3. Eminem and his ex-wife, Kim, applied for a marriage license.
My take: When a man writes lyrics and records songs about me and I plan to marry him, I would expect the lyrics to include mentions of my beauty, my sexual skills or even my ample booty. After a nasty divorce, I don't think I'd consider getting back together with a guy anyway, but when the lyrics he writes about me include the following, I'm out the door!
Eminem lyrics about Kim:
"I'm this close to goin toe-to-toe with this whore. What would you do if she was tellin you she wants a divorce? She's havin another baby in a month, and it's yours, and you find out it isn't cus the bitch has been vistin someone else and suckin his dick and kissin you on the lips ...she's so deceivin' shit this hoe's a genius"
Uh yeah, I'm going to get back together with him. NOT. And, yes, I listen to Eminem. Weird, huh?

4. Troy Aikman and Michael "Crack Daddy" Irvin are named Pro Football Hall of Fame Finalists.
My Take: As a Cowboys fan, I'd love the see them both make it, but I know Irvin won't after the drug scandal this year. I still think Pete Rose should be in the Baseball Hall of Fame, whether he is a turd or not, he was a damn fine baseball player.

5. Dude mummified his dead mom to continue getting her pension checks.
My Take: Note to self to boot out freeloading children once they're in their 30s or else I'll end up in a wardrobe next to my baseball card collection. Oh wait, he'll take that out to sell it first.
