I'm watching Al Jazeera English streaming results live from the Iranian election...
(For those of you playing along at home, both sides are currently claiming victory, the polls stayed open for 4+ hours after they should have, turnout is estimated north of 60% (some saying 70%), and the vote counting is just beginning)

When last I declared doomsday was coming re: swine flu, the media couldn't shut up about it and there were under 100 suspected cases in the U.S.
That was roughly 1.5 months ago. Right now there are ~19,000 confirmed cases, ~1,200 suspected cases, and 50 deaths in the U.S.

quote partially paraphrased and partially as best I remember from tonight's show:
Scientists in Germany have discovered a new element... bla bla bla, number 112, lead and zinc, extremely unstable, only exists for a fraction of a second - "Which is why I'm suggesting naming this new element willpower-to-go-to-the-gym-ium"

Venezuela has just banned the sale of coke zero.

Cost of a new (anounced today) 32GB iPhone 3GS w/ 2 year contract: $299
Cost if you are an existing iPhone/AT&T user who wants to upgrade to the 32GB Iphone 3GS: $699
The iPhone has never struck me as that interesting, but that pricing scheme seems ridiculous for a company with a loyal user base they want to entice to upgrade.

Do not under any circumstances watch Terminator Salvation. Honestly one of the worst movies I've ever seen... so tragic

Meghan McCain: I am pro-sex, pro-life, and pro-gay marriage Republican woman.
Liz Cheney: Barack Obama is un-American.
I'd say one of those two has perhaps stumbled upon an successful platform, and the other had the misfortune to be spawned from (and inherit the political dispositions of) a man who closely resembles a ghoul.
P.S. Ron Paul '08!
