Must we get our truth from Al Jazeera? The Qatar news network reports that eyeless shrimp and fish with lesions are among the deformities being seen in the Gulf of Mexico following the April 2010 BP oil spill, with one recent catch yielding a reported 400 pounds of shrimp without eyes. It’s all rather fishy.
Watch the clip and draw your own conclusions.

While the Mormons are busily engaged in posthumously baptizing dead people, including famed Holocaust victim Anne Frank. One man, whose grandparents survived the Holocaust and suffered the indignity of being “converted” by Mormons after death, got even, reports the Daily Kos.
The anonymous humorist thought it only fair to follow this absurdity with another, leading to the creation of the “Convert a Dead Mormon to Gay” web site, the idea of which is as outrageously cuckoo as converting someone’s religion after they’ve quit breathing.
Click the pic of the generator below to visit the site and save your favorite dead Mormon’s soul from an eternity without Madonna, cosmos, and Grindr. Don’t know any dead Mormons? They’ll find one for you, thanks to those handy dead Mormon databases.
Don’t know any dead Mormons who weren’t already gay? Me either.

From 1934′s “Down to Their Last Yacht,” the strangest big musical number of the era. It just keeps getting better, and by better, I mean I can’t believe it. Wait for the ship scene.

In 1957, Modern Mechanix said that within ten years we’d be driving to work in these.
I guess they meant fedoras.
I’m going to make a prediction. Within 10 years, you’ll drive your iPhone36 to work.
