• 20 straight days of Tiger Woods front pages; nice golf score source

• It takes an insanely creative mind to come up with something this randomly beautiful, and Julian Smith (in the driver’s seat) apparently fits the bill. All the sounds come from the jeep, and you can buy said sounds in ringtone form if you’re interested in having this around everywhere you go. (Thanks to our boy Micah Pearson for the find.) source

• This is one of those videos that gives us hot flashes. Joe Lieberman, currently looked at as an evil bastard by the left for his blatant about-face on the health-care bill, does not get any love from Sen. Al Franken, who’s totally in “Stuart Saves His Family” hero mode. John McCain has Joe’s back, but you know, this is almost as good as Joe Wilson’s “You Lie” comment for pure entertainment value. We’re gonna let this one stand.
  Update: TPM makes a really good point about the shutdown. source

• one cargo plane was intercepted in Thailand this morning; it was headed to Sri Lanka

In the midst of a lawsuit with the free, indifferent-towards-money classified service, a top exec admitted this was part of the reason for acquisition. However, they also noted that another suitor was interested – but they were apparently hostile to Craigslist’s mission. eBay is run by idiots, apparently, because they launched a direct competitor to Craigslist, Kijiji, which suffers from the triple-threat of 1) being something nobody has ever heard of (with a confusing name to boot), 2) ruining current business deals and 3) being an also-ran in the market the company technically already owns. Brilliant! source
  

• It’s kind of like “District 9,” except without the spaceship. Last week, a giant meteor exploded in Gauteng, South Africa. Many in the country saw the meteor go off, and well, we’re scared of the aliens that are about to come out and kill us all. source
  

• Well, that’s one way to pay tribute to Freddie Mercury. A crafty “Super Mario World” level hacker (who also knows their way around automation) managed to craft “Don’t Stop Me Now,” “Guitar Hero”-style, using a platformer. Awesome, but nerdy.

• The people who did this must be full of gingerbread dust, They will smell a long way.
• Inspector Erik Sveaas • Describing the fate of a gingerbread vandal who destroyed a 650-cookie house town by crushing it, then covering it with paint and fire extinguisher foam. Monster! source
