Apparently, Al Gore isn’t “Green” enough for Drew Johnson, President of the think tank that pushes for conservative economic issues. They compare Gore’s 10,000-square foot home to the average Nashville household to prove that he is a waste… I’m sure everyone in Nashville owns a 10,000 square foot home…

Ok, so a snake gets loose in the garden center of a Florida Wal-Mart and bites a customer.  Kinda freaky, but stuff happens.  At two to three times, we’re still in the ‘coincidence’ category.  But now there have been at least seven reports of customers getting bitten by pygmy rattlesnakes.
The lesson?  Screw the garden.

What better way to celebrate president’s day than with the Presidential Quiz from Mental Floss.
I scored an abysmal 10%… Guess I’ll just stick to improv comedy.
Ouch! Sorry to shatter your dreams, kid. Maybe you should spend more time working on your jump shot. Score: 10% (2 out of 20)

LOST is not in the toilet. Yea. You heard me. Mark my words. Reports of the death of LOST are greatly exaggerated.
