Brad Woodhouse (Democratic National Committee spokesman):

Either Sarah Palin is leaving the people of Alaska high and dry to pursue her long shot national political ambitions or she simply can’t handle the job now that her popularity has dimmed and oil revenues are down, either way, her decision to abandon her post and the people of Alaska who elected her continues a pattern of bizarre behavior that more than anything else may explain the decision she made today.”

Drill, baby, drill. Between this and Mark Sanford, it’s safe to say that it’s a shitty time to be a shitty republican governor.

So. That’s working now.

So, for reference:

I’m sure this is already pretty famous, but I’d never seen it. It’s pretty great, right?

Then it gets better (or worse). The same family that decided to cancel his WoW account buys him a new truck for his birthday:

Maybe he snapped because his parents have $150,000 worth of vehicles in the driveway/garage and bought him someone’s sloppy-fifths.

Caffeine amounts in everyday drinks

Here’s a simple side-by-side comparison of common beverages and their caffeine counts in milligrams. I’m sure this chart exists somewhere but I have a 60 second Google rule, I and I couldn’t find it. So I made one.

Only Sony would make an iPod speaker dock that looks almost exactly like their direct competition and ship it with a remote that’s larger than the device it’s meant to work with.

All this and 4 years late to the party? Bravo.
