Twitter Dance by @choochus
(Sung to the tune of “Safety Dance” by Men Without Hats)
We can tweet if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don’t tweet
and if they don’t tweet
well they’re no friends of mine
We can tweet when we want to
if the server has survived
and we can Twhirl, Spaz, Snitter
Twinkle, Twibble, Tweetr
within the limits of the API
and we can tweet
and DM!
I say, we can block who we want to
for tweets that they will never find
the bots will try to follow
we see their ratio’s awful
and block them with a victory cry!
I say, we can tweet what want to
unless we see the damn fail whale
Just stay under one forty
if you need to be shorter
then paste in a Tiny URL
I say, we can tweet, we can tweet
everything’s Inter-operable
We can tweet, we can tweet
just stay within the interval
We can tweet, we can tweet
its really not a difficult feat
We can tweet, we can tweet
Everybody thinks its sweet
Twitter dance
well the Twitter dance
yes the Twitter dance
We can tweet if we want to
Your phones got a camera that works fine
We can snap all we see
Twitpic with a link
And share or even post to MINE
I say, we can tweet if we want to
we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don’t tweet
and if they don’t tweet
well they’re no friends of mine
I say, we can tweet, we can tweet
everything’s Inter-operable
We can tweet, we can tweet
just stay within the interval
We can tweet, we can tweet
its really not a difficult feat
We can tweet, we can tweet
Everybody thinks its sweet
Well the Twitter dance
yes the Twitter dance
well the Twitter dance
well the Twitter dance - ai!
yes the Twitter dance
its the Twitter dance - yeah
its the Twitter dance
its the Twitter dance
its the Twitter dance
its the Twitter dance
its the Twitter dance

Cheeseburger in a can
Not to be out shown by the feat of bread in a can, a German company took it upon themselves to deliver the ultimate: Cheeseburger in a can!
Here is an excerpt from a review of said in(di)gestible:
“Never let it be said that we don’t make sacrifices for our readers. Terrible, greasy, wadded sacrifices. When word hit the Internet that a German camping-supplies company was marketing a canned cheeseburger, we were instantly buried under a wave of requests—nay, demands—that we get our hands on one and rate the experience of eating it. The German company doesn’t ship to the U.S., but we paid an embarrassing price for one on eBay, acquired by an American soldier currently stationed at a German military base. (We’re fairly sure it wasn’t smuggled out of the country in a coffin, à la American Gangster, but we aren’t 100 percent positive.) A few days later, we all eagerly gathered around the hot plate in the A.V. Club labs to see whether cheeseburger-in-a-can could possibly be any good.
Answer: no. Oh dear sweet shrieking Lord, no.”
A Violent Christmas
First I saw this post on BoingBoing:
Drunken Xmas brawl at South Pole
Doran says:
Two men working at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole station got into a “drunken Christmas punch-up.” One man, an unidentified Raytheon employee, was injured so badly he couldn’t be treated at nearby McMurdo station and required an emergency medical evacuation to a New Zealand hospital. The other man was flown back to the US.
Sure, that is strange, but understandable when people who are cooped up together in an isolated area let their hair down. However, just under that report in my newsfeed was the following:
Priests brawl at Jesus’ birthplace
At a Bethlehem church built over the manger where Jesus was alleged to have been born, two groups of “robed and bearded” Greek Orthodox priests and Armenian priests fought each other for over an hour “using fists, brooms and iron rods as weapons.” Seven people were injured in the brawl.
The brawl apparently began when Greek Orthodox priests set up ladders to clean the walls and ceilings of their part of the church after the Christmas Day celebrations.Armenian priests claimed that the ladders encroached on their portion of the church, which led the two sects to exchange angry words which quickly turned to blows.
Photographers who came to document the annual cleaning ceremony instead recorded the entire event.
What on earth happened this Christmas? Very odd. New Years is shaping up to be quite interesting. Though, I think I may stay in now 
Baby in a blender
Sometimes you just have to shake your head. What on earth are these product designers thinking- didn’t somebody stand back and scratch there head and say “well darn- that looks like…… nah!”
From BoingBoing:
Today in my series of photos from my travels: this baby bath on sale at the John Lewis store in London’s Oxford Street. It’s basically a bucket (the instructions refer to it as “womb-shaped”) that you wash your baby in. Seems reasonable, but once you use the enclosed stand, it begins to look a little bit too much like “baby in a blender” for my taste. Link
And I shall live forever!
The Germans know how to pick their research topics!
10 Minutes Of Staring at Boobs Daily Prolongs Man’s Life by 5 Years
By: Stefan Anitei, Science Editor
Listen, guys, now we know why Pamela Anderson made her transplants: to make us healthier. “Angels of mercy” like Jordan just prolong our life and Hugh Hefner knows it.
A German research published in New England Journal of Medicine and Weekly World News said that men staring at women’s breasts in fact prolong their lives with years.
“Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a well-endowed female such as Baywatch actress Pamela Lee is equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work-out,” said author Dr. Karen Weatherby, a gerontologist.
The team led by Weatherby was made up of researchers at three hospitals in Frankfurt, Germany, and found this results after monitoring for 5 years the health of 200 male subjects, half of whom were asked to look at busty females daily, while the other half had to abstain from doing so.
For five years, the boob oglers presented a lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates and decreased risk of coronary artery disease.
“Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation. There’s no question: Gazing at large breasts makes men healthier. Our study indicates that engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of stroke and heart attack in half.” said Weatherby, who even recommended that men aged over 40 should spend at least 10 minutes daily admiring breasts sized “D-cup” or larger.
She said that this was as healthy as going to the gym for 30 minutes daily and prolonged a man’s life by five years.
“We believe that by doing so consistently, the average man can extend his life four to five years.” said Weatherby.
This is indeed a very serious reason for men to enjoy without shame those midnight TVdownload low-budget women-in-prison movies and collect such instructive and health beneficial magazines like Playboy and Hustler.
