"Spinning tops of doom" Catchy isn't it?
Bejing needs to learn about sarcasm a little more. They mistakently thought an
Onion article about congressmen wanting a new retractable dome or else they'd
move to Memphis was true. So they printed a translation of the article in
their newspaper and now people in Bejing think our capital will be moving. This
is similiar to an email that used to go around about how Harry Potter turned
kids to the devil. What the people who created the email didn't know was that
the quotes that they got from an Onion article weren't actually real. Didn't
stop it from being distributed as fact though. Which is
just yet another reason never to believe anything in forwarded emails.
And speaking of the Onion, this guy takes his Star Wars
cereal just a bit too seriously. Though I also think the R2D2 marshmellows
are disappointing :(
Tomorrow will be a fun day for sports fans, with a crapload of events
going on. You have the French Open finals, the Stanley Cup finals, World Cup
games, a Triple Crown event, and Mike Tyson boxing once again. A sports fan's
dream come true almost. I'll be watching the soccer at least, though I may catch
a little of the tennis. And speaking of soccer, the USA's win on Wednesday was
awesome! To think that they perfermed what some call the US soccer team's greatest upset
ever to beat the #5 ranked team in the world is mind boggling. I'm lucky I
had to get up early that day to go to work, so that I got to catch the last half
of it. It really was a great game.
