Ah yes, patents really aren’t worth the copyrighted code they are typed in.

I came across this on Gizmodo tonight.  Turns out that a Professor at George Washington University has discovered that all patents granted since 2000 are invalid because our wonderful government didn’t follow its own damn rules for appointing patent judges.  Wtf indeed.

Yet another hilarious video that happens to be a real product.

First the Tiddy bear now this. Damn, I need to start writing down and acting on some of these product ideas floating around in my head!

My new spotlight on celebrities. This week @ the checkout.

Yes, I was going to abbreviate my new category but quickly realized that may not be a good idea.  I’ve been meaning to do this for some time now.  Celebrities can be interesting but most of the time they can be equally annoying and distracting.  So I am going to take random shots of the magazines at the checkouts of my local stores.  My thinking is that I will be able to stay current with all the latest happenings in the world of our countries top media figures without actually having to dedicate more than a few minutes listening to some show host or reading a full article.  Yet another educational courtesy brought to you by OhCripes!

This week I learned that Oprah is really disgusted by Rachel Ray, John Mayer is fooling around with Jennifer Aniston and JFK Jr. really didn’t crash in a small plane over the ocean but was actually murdered!.  I smell a conspiracy theory.

This week at the checkout #1
