About: Taking the weekend off: Something about a birthday or something

  • Here’s the problem. Ernie wanted to take the weekend off because he was turning 29 on Sunday and wanted a break, and asked Julius to cover for him. Unfortunately, Julius assumed that since Ernie was taking the weekend off, he could too. He’s a pretty lazy robot. Anyway, so we’re taking a break for the weekend. We’re going to use this time to think for alternatives to Lala, now that Apple has left us high and dry. Back Monday. Peace.

About: We’re taking a break for a couple of days. Be back soon.

  • We love you guys, but we need a break. We’ve been posting on ShortFormBlog for over a year straight. The last day we missed was Feb. 2, 2009. And well, we have a good flow. But for purposes of our own mental health, we’re taking a break starting tonight, lasting until tomorrow, likely to be broken Sunday morning (something about a health care vote) and unbroken until Monday. We love you guys, but we think our posting quality will go up after a day or two off. (thanks Columbusneon for the image) source
  • Edit: We plan on posting today (Sunday, March 21) about nothing BUT health care. Everything else (including Ben Folds doing Chatroulette, which is hilarious) is off-limits today.

Sports: Sir Charles Barkley is taking a break from TNT

  • He’s sorting through a DUI case. Barkley, who was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol in Arizona on New Year’s Eve, will take at least several weeks off from his popular stint as TNT Sports broadcaster. When Barkley was arrested, he had a blood alcohol level of .149, nearly twice the legal limit in Arizona. source
