Current Terror Level:

Brian, you're scaring me. Just three months deep into the pool and we've notched nine celebrity fatalities. STOP!

Dolphin Olympics is a fun diversion. Nail a high score by performing back flips and corkscrews simultaneously; just make sure that when you jump out of the water, you return at a proper angle so as to earn a "nice entry" bonus and speed up your dolphin's swimming rate. Also, eat seagulls for extra points.

Yes, I realize that I make little to no sense. Now go play! (via Waxy)

Noel might have picked up a point but he remains in fourth place. People, we've had seven different matches so far among only eleven entries over three months. This disturbs me to no end.

Shirako = cod milt = fish ejaculate = gross.

You know, nearly half of the things I tell you about are ripped directly from the Obscure Store and Reading Room, possibly the best wacky news site in the history of the Web. It's been around since the late 90's and editor Jim Romenesko has kept it an intriguing read for all those years, even if he has trouble selling his condo.

Today is the day of the year with the fewest minutes of daylight, so take a few minutes to sympathize with the residents of Viganella who spent $131,260 to construct a giant mirror to reflect the sun's rays.

Legendary animator Joseph Barbera has passed on at age 95 so Big Daddy Grenks will pick up some points in the pool but remain in third place.

More proof that Santa gets no respekt from ad wizards in aught-six:

Hey, what's up with Santa being portrayed as a total loser in television commercials nowadays? I've seen him stuck in a chimney in a GEICO ad, yelling at mall shoppers in a Verizon Wireless ad, and just today, PULLED OVER FOR DRUNK DRIVING HIS SLEIGH WITHOUT PROPER IDENTIFICATION (I don't remember what was being advertised). It's as if advertisers are telling us "Haha, Santa's a real asshole...look at how ironic we are!"

Well screw that. I may not believe in Santa Claus, but at least leave the poor old coot some self-respect. Like in this relic:

Allegedly, it is less cruel to murder a lobster by electrocution than it is by boiling it alive. News to me.

I finally got around to compiling the entries for the Second Actual Iracane.com Death Pool of Morbidity. In less than three months of competition, FIVE WHOLE CELEBRITIES have died, and Brian S. leads with 2 fatalities and 17 huge points.

Unfortunately, only eleven people entered this year. So to everyone who didn't enter, go screw!

There was a two-fer today over at my Car Crashing Into Buildings blog. Have you subscribed to it on your RSS reader yet? No? Pfft.

SCARED OF SANTA GALLERY: Tis the season to be scared witless

Sorry I missed a few days. I was sick.

According to the NFL Week 13 Preview at FOXsports.com, Steve McNair saved the day for Vince Young:

FOX's own Jay Glazer reported last week that Vince Young almost didn't make it to Philadelphia to upset the Eagles two Sundays ago. Apparently, Young got stuck driving behind a funeral procession. The rook called coach Jeff Fisher, who said that the team plane would wait five to ten more minutes. After 15 minutes, the Titans took off without Young. Young was furious, but he contacted Steve McNair, who flew Young to Philadelphia in his private jet.

Too bad McNair couldn't save Eagles rookie Broderick Bunkley.
