Is Genius Born or Can It Be Learned? Depending on how you define “genius”, both nature and nurture may be required.

The Arcata Eye Police Log is the best local police blotter on the ‘net. By “best”, I mean most entertaining for those of us who have no idea where Arcata is. (via Metafilter)

The new viral video from Samsung is full of cute animals and clever jokes. That’s what it takes to get free advertising on the internet.

21 of the best Oscar moments ever. More may be added to the list after Sunday’s awards are presented.

The goose is after the dog, and it won’t stop. Ever. It’s the Terminator Goose!

A cancer victim sells the rights to film her death for a reality TV series. What seems like a bid for attention is her way of providing for the two young sons she’ll leave behind.

Should lawyers be allowed to advertise? If they can’t make ads any more tasteful than these, maybe not.

  1. I feel bad for Jade Goody. She was a bit of a joke here and nobody really liked her because she was accused of being racist after her stint on Big Brother. Then she got cancer and she became the poster girl for how to fight it. She even posed for photos with her bald head. Now the cancer has spread and she’s forced to do what she can to provide for her children because she has weeks to live. I won’t watch it but I’m glad she’ll have the money from selling the rights so her children won’t have to suffer financially as well as emotionally.

  2. That goose is a Canadian goose. There is no wonder it was attacking that dog so persistantly!

    I live in Canada, and behind my high school was a small pond. Every winter we’d complain about the cold, (Catholic school= kilts) and in the spring we would be besot with huge amounts of goose poo.

    Every spring a warning would come over the PA system: “Please DO NOT go near the geese. Another grade nine student has been bitten, DO NOT GO NEAR THE GEESE. And try to stop tracking goose poop into the school.”

    Those geese… this year I switched to a public school and wore pants. Imagine the poo and you will understand why I prefer my uniform. *shiver* Make them go awaaaaaay!!!

  3. By the way, everyone has a Canadian goose story just for themselves. This is mine: I can make this sound that apparently geese like, because they have extended conversations with me and never bite. They’re everywhere, might as well figure out how to keep them from nipping your fingers.

  4. My parents were chased by an American goose once. I don’t have the exact details, and i’m not going to ask. It might bring back bad memories.
