Apple has released a wonderful new advertisement that lampoons the PC industry’s use of both crippleware and just plain useless software in new computers.

Update: And I just saw it while watching America’s Next Top Model on MTV (do they even have music video programs anymore?).

Val Kilmer sat down with Elle (magazine) and had the following to say:

ELLE: Having played Iceman in Top Gun, please rank its homoerotic content from 1 to 10, 1 being not gay at all, and 10 being Liberace in an F-16.

VAL KILMER: 11.

Also this…

ELLE: Which [of the women you've dated] would you have testify as a character witness?

VK: [Long pause] I’m trying to imagine who would be the most forgiving. Cher is a really smart girl and she’d provide perhaps not the most accurate information, but the testimony that would get me off.

Another funny (to me) headline in the RSS feeds. This time from PageOneQ:

Don't the gays always do well at the Tonys?

I was reading the paper today and looked at the comic section, which I rarely do, and saw this wonderful thing:

Al Gore tickles Jay Leno’s funny bone.

“It’s not all fun,” Gore remarked. “For instance, I have this huge thing with Lindsay Lohan now. When Leno asked how the feud started, Gore responded, “she knows what she did.”

A record-setting meteorite slammed into Norway on Wednesday. It’s presumed to be the largest to hit Norway at “considerably larger” than 198 lbs.

As Wednesday morning dawned, northern Norway was hit with an impact comparable to the atomic bomb used on Hiroshima.

At around 2:05 a.m. on Wednesday, residents of the northern part of Troms and the western areas of Finnmark could clearly see a ball of fire taking several seconds to travel across the sky.

A few minutes later an impact could be heard and geophysics and seismology research foundation NORSAR registered a powerful sound and seismic disturbances at 02:13.25 a.m. at their station in Karasjok.

And Slate has posted “an underpants manifesto”.

It’s come to my attention that there are some men out there—even a few friends of mine—who’ve not yet switched to boxer briefs. These are otherwise intelligent fellows who, either through ignorance or recalcitrance, begin each day by pulling on (shudder) traditional boxers or (double-shudder) briefs. I feel great pity for these men. Because the irrefutable truth is that boxer briefs—a knit, mid-thigh-length compromise between boxer and brief—are the ultimate male netherwear. The sooner you accept this, the happier your crotch will be.

Kathy Griffin was on NBC’s The Today Show this morning to publicise the second season premiere of her show My Life on the D-List when she referred to the nut-bag as, well, a nut-bag. It was fun~ny.
