Lunch Reading - 7/21/08


Hello Beijing!
The beautiful image above is not from my beloved Cleveland, Ohio, but rather from Beijing which hosts the Summer Olypics starting on August 8th. The air quality in Beijing is so poor that endurance events over 1-hour may be postponed and one of the greatest marathoners on the planet refuses to run there. Way to go China! Nothing like inviting the world into your country and making it the equivalent of the smokers only room at a cheap Vegas casino. The Chinese government waited until today to ban 50% of all vehicles from the roads to try and clear up the skies. Best of luck with that! The eyes of the world will be on you in a couple of weeks...if they can see you thru all of the smog.

Weekend at Bernie's - Italian Version?
This story is disgusting and repulsive. Italian sun bathers laid out right next to two dead gypsy girls and simply enjoyed themselves. Are you serious?

Smells Like Fish, Tastes Like Toe Jam
Nothing spells hygiene more than letting fish chew on your feet! Does anyone feel like having a fish pedicure? Apparently it is THE hot thing right now. For only $50 it can happen to you too!


Redskins Fans, Meet Your New Starting Defensive End!
This story makes complete sense. Jason Taylor is now partnered up with 'Skins owner Dan Snyder, who now owns Dick Clark Productions and can help Jason launch his Hollywood career. Oh, and he is also now playing for a playoff contender again. Did I mention Jason Taylor plays football?

Back to work!
