-- Cracked does a rundown of some things that movie heroes do that would not work well in real life. Most of them make a lot of sense, but I think they erred when they said that in real life, James Bond would not be able to be a butt-kickin' machine while he was wearing a suit. If your suit was designed by Q, it would not hinder your megalomaniacal-baddie thwartin' one little bit.
-- The local festival is having a car show, as most summertime outdoor festivals do. Now, your Friar attempts to be responsible about his interactions with the environment. He recycles his plastic. He brings his own water bottle to the gym rather than buy disposable. He takes his used books to stores or libraries for others to read when he is done. He does not interact with Al Gore, meaning that none of the amount of heated stupidity said Mr. Gore disperses into the atmosphere can be blamed on him. But he would, in a heartbeat, drive a 1958 Cadillac El Dorado Brougham and hang the emissions, and he would do so because, tailfins!
-- Over at Dustbury, Charles Hill runs across one of the stupider questions on Yahoo!'s "ask" site. He is unnecessarily polite in discussing it. But given that the question in question warrants a vigorous poke in the snoot, there's a wide range of unnecessarily polite options available.
