Juuuu-u-u-u-u-u-u-rrrry Duty Calls

With Obama being called to jury duty recently (also opting out because he had a prior commitment: the State of the Union), it got me thinking of famous people/things called into jury duty:

Obama

Michael Bloomberg

A cat
















Brad Pitt

Kansas governor

Washington governor

Oprah

Soap Opera Stuff

Interesting article from The Daily Beast that outlines what happened to Tiger, and all the run-up beforehand, the night he crashed his Escalade...

Notice the part in there about anonymity: "Both sources spoke on the condition of anonymity, because Elin Nordegren did not give them permission to discuss her conversations with them." Those two ladies are pretty disgraceful in my opinion; your friend confides in you, and you go to the press with it. Not only that but there goes your anonymity. Elin is not a dumbass, I'm assuming, and will probably know who leaked their convo....

If you haven't heard about John Edwards' fiasco yet, read it here. However, wouldn't it be much more interesting if Edwards admitted his paternity here, rather than here?

If you haven't heard about the Conan/Leno/NBC debacle yet, you apparently go to bed at 10. Well know you can go to bed at 11:35 now, and STILL not know about it. Here's everything you need to know. And a random article I found that's a really quick, interesting read; the type of stuff the HuffPo excels in.

Last night, I watched live as Conan decided that since he would be fired by week's end, but could do anything he wanted, he decided it might be prudent to spend as much as possible on NBC's budget. His first spending spree? A Bugatti Veyron set to the original recording of the Stones' Satisfaction. I thought this was an interesting choice, since I didn't know that a Bugatti was really $1.5 million alone (it is; the most expensive car today). The real deal was apparently a loan, however...

I mean; I guess I would drive it...Considering it has a 8.0 litre quad-turbocharged W16 engine (yes, that's 16 cylinders in a W pattern), and 10 radiators. 10 radiators!!!!
