Morning Links
Todd Bluth
Tuesday, March 4, 2008 at 08:32AM It is 8:30 in the morning. I am barely lucid. I have been staring blankly at a computer screen for the better part of an evening trying to figure out the best way to convince a ficticious judge that a fictitious commercial does not actually infringe upon a fictional company’s copyright, when in all actuality, it blatantly does. I do this all for a very real grade.
And so, dear reader, because it is simple and I bet that many of you would like a change of pace, I humbly offer up a small dose of morning links in a post that does not (gasp!) refer to torture, waterboarding, human rights, Dean Garvey, or the alumni council. Enjoy. I’m off to pretend that I know the first thing about copyright law, after which I will repeatedly hit myself with the large, blunt monstrosity that is my con law textbook…
I’m willing to bet this isn’t a first-time issue for American Idol.
Global warming is not real, according to a suppsoedly influential source. On a related note, the CEO of Mapsco also declared the world to be flat and Lindsay Lohan will spend the next year as spokeswoman for AA.
If we could just develop this wondrous technology a little more, maybe John Edward (the psychic guy, not the politician) and Criss Angel could team up and find Osama.
And if that doesn’t work out, it’s nice to know that those two could still find gainful employment stateside.
And finally, I’ve included this just to stir the pot a little bit. I’m a journalist at heart. It’s what I do. (WARNING: Here’s the video. Frankly this is atrocious and completely reprehensible, and I’m not even a member of PETA. Iraq is clearly driving our boys nutty. We need to get them out soon.)
