Man allegedly found with inflatable doll in public restroom
A man was arrested after a government agent allegedly found him in an office building restroom lying next to an inflatable, anatomically correct doll with his pants down.
McCullough’s criminal record includes a 2004 conviction for burglarizing Just For Me bridal boutique. Shortly after the burglary, police officers found McCullough in a nearby alley, carrying a mannequin wearing a bridal dress.

Your $7,250 speakers cables are crap! Mine cost $43,000.
Journalist Accepts $1 Million Challenge: Do $7250 Cables Sound Better or Not? (Or they could use these $43,000 cables instead). At least, it sounded like acceptance, even to James Randi. But then… maybe not.
So while you’re waiting to find out if you should spend that much for cables, maybe you can buy something from this collection of fine audiophile products. $400 for a pair tweeters may not be too bad. You can use them with your $350,000 amplifier, and your awesome-looking $100,000 turntable. Make sure you set aside $13,416 for a decent power cable, though, or you’re just wasting your money.

Thai food sparks terror alert in London
London attacked by burning, spicy food — locals unable to ‘Keep Calm and Carry On.’ It all spells t-e-r-r-o-r a-l-e-r-t! (NOTE: the BBC provides the recipe in a sidebar in case you need to have “specialist crews” break down your door.)”
A pot of burning chilli sparked fears of a biological terror attack in central London. Firefighters wearing protective breathing apparatus were called to D’Arblay Street, Soho, after reports of noxious smoke filling the air. Police closed off three roads and evacuated homes following the alert. Specialist crews broke down the door to the Thai Cottage restaurant at 1900 BST on Monday where they discovered the source – a 9lb pot of chillies. The restaurant had been preparing Nam Prik Pao, a red-hot Thai dip which uses extra-hot chillies which are deliberately burnt.

Gordie Howe maliciously harassed by Neighbors
Wow, there’s some creepy ass stuff going on with Gordie Howe
He’s spent much of his life in the public eye, this icon. But at nearly 80, Mr. Hockey is just Citizen Howe these days, surely entitled to a little peace and privacy. His life now is mostly about tending to an ailing wife, Colleen, who daily slips further into the clutches of dementia, caused by Pick’s Disease…….
“My dad never minded having his picture taken,” says Mark Howe, standing just outside his father’s front door. “But 17,000 pictures in one day is a bit much.”…..
It is a kind of peeping molestation…..
Which is, of course, precisely what Lionel and Karen Dorfman had been doing, obsessively and intrusively, until just last Tuesday, training their various web cams at the house across the street – Gordie Howe’s house.

Thou art the homo sapiens now, canine …
Once upon a time, there was a very bad Sean Connery movie (directed by “the Good Will Hunting guy“). In it, Sean Connery looks at an inner-city African-American teen and says, “Punch the keys, for God’s sake! Yes … yesssss … you’re the man now, dog!” A NYC resident, Max Goldberg, saw this and said, “The world needs to hear that last part on an eternal loop.” From Forrester‘s hammy dialogue was crafted YTMND which, since 2004, has been an online community in which users, armed only with a sound file, an image, and the occasional zooming text, have set loose on the ‘Net fads, remixes of its fads, a strange obsession with a 16-year-old (sometimes becoming profoundly creepy), remixes of a strange obsession with a 16-year-old, another strange obsession with a nursing home resident suffering from Apert’s syndrome (as well as a call for compassion), its own self–analytical wiki, and alternate–universe versions of itself. Never the subject of its own post, the site is often both the birthplace, or feeding ground for, ‘Net memes, a locale of remixes of and commentary on pop culture, and also of stuff that’s just plain weird–funny. It’s not always constrained to humor, however: there’s a little history and science mixed in there. The site’s enemies are as diverse as Eric Bauman, the Church of Scientology, Sonic the Hedgehog, Harry Potter (Book 7 spoilers), and, most dangerously of all … Screech.

The fates of real-life advertising icons
Check out this insanely detailed ten-part post on Ira R. Schnapp, the most impressive typography/logo/stamp designer you’ve never heard of. Very cool and fascinating.
But who in the world is I.R. Schnapp? Why does HE deserve to be ranked among the hallowed creators who guided Superman through his earliest adventures? And why as “Senior Vice President of Advertising,” of all things? The surprising answer: Schnapp deserves to be there, perhaps more so than any of the others, because all the other people on this masthead came to Superman after his first adventure had been published. Not Schnapp. He was there from the very beginning. Schnapp was, as they say, “present at the creation.”
Ira R. Schnapp was an eyewitness to the first-ever appearance of the Man of Steel. He also saw the debuts of the Caped Crusader, the Scarlet Speedster, the Emerald Gladiator, and the Amazing Amazon… in person. He was there the day Barry Allen raced across the bridge between the earths and became the Flash of Two Worlds. He saw the mightiest heroes of comics’ Golden Age unite for the first time to form the Justice Society of America. And he witnessed the unforgettable first meeting of the JSA and Justice League of America with his own eyes. Through it all, there was one constant, and one constant alone: IRA SCHNAPP.

“The fact someone wants to come here for better economic opportunity or a better quality of life … that’s no basis for a successful refugee claim.” That’s not the Minutemen talking, but rather Canadian Immigration Refugee Board (IRB) spokesman Charles Hawkins. Over the past three weeks, approximately 200 illegal immigrants from the U.S. entered Canada at the Detroit River crossings and applied in Windsor for shelter and social assistance. So far, no cries of racism or xenophobia against the Canadians for defending their borders.

Girl can’t help it: a critique of porn star Ashley Blue’s blog
Susannah Breslin has an essay up today about the online life of (former?) adult film performer Ashley Blue, whose very interesting blog seems to document a kind of transition from working in porn to whatever lies beyond that. Snip:
Ashley Blue‘s blog is like no other. On it, Blue–whose real name is Oriana Small–reveals the real girl behind the porn star. Blue is–or at least was–a porn star like no other. She has starred in some of the most extreme porn movies ever made. According to IMDB, she has appeared in over 200 adult videos, among them: “Ashley Blue AKA Filthy Whore,” “American Bukkake 26,” and “Gag Factor 15.” Take “American Bukkake 26,” for example, in which Blue fed fried cum to a bukkake girl. (“It was amazing,” she later noted.) Her performances have not gone unnoticed. Last year, “Gag Factor 15,” in which Blue reenacts a scene out of Abu Ghraib, was listed in an 18-count federal obscenity indictment. Her blog, though, shows another side of the sex star. There, in a stream-of-consciousness assemblage of words and pictures that’s part tumblelog, part haiku, and part Molly Bloom’s monologue, Blue–that is, Small–exposes the woman behind the sex with unrivaled intensity. This is a blog that stars the usual suspects found on confessional blogs–the boyfriend (erotic photographer Dave Naz), the new puppy, the night out on the town. Blue takes blogging to a whole new level.
