7 Illuminating Things from the Weekend

1. Punk group, funk group, jazz, crunk – whatever you call them – Vaughn Kreestoe knows how to make a crowd get on their feet. Send us more like that, please, Bellingham.

2. According to some scientists, exercise (without significant change in your diet) won’t help you lose weight. Thus, I am not lazy. Just wisely not wasting my time.  

3. Pasta with bacon. Pasta with bacon. Pasta with BACON!

4. There are few laws of gravity which hairspray cannot defy.

5. There are few canines which the Dog Whisperer cannot blind into submission with his impressively white teeth.

6. I have a hard time absorbing all the illuminating things the Economist has to offer.

7. Everyone should see the movie Agora. Not only to reflect on how a little tolerance goes a long way, but also on how Google Earth can shape our creative consciousness.
