New Feature
Via this blog (found using the "Next Blog" button, of course) I discovered the best terror alert advisory EVER. If this is how Tom Ridge et al had presented it when the color-coded alerts were unveiled no one would've questioned the system. So if you ever need to know the US' terror alert level, just check Midwest Product's sidebar.
The same blog entry also alerted me to the fact that Nabisco's video game programmers are seriously twisted.
Updated - Speaking of Bert & Ernie, those who haven't seen it should check this out. God I hope my new job doesn't have internet filters, I don't know what I would do without time-killers like this.

Unfortunately it is too good to be true, it's actually a legit game. www.cornhole-game.org/
That would have been pretty funny if it were the Nabisco guys with too much time on their hands....considering the caption is "How good is your arm?"
Indeed, Cornhole is a real game, invented in the west side of Cincinnati. You can see college students playing it on their lawns on Friday afternoons at any of the major universities in Ohio, at least.
How does the game work? And for that matter, what is the origin of the name? The name Beer Pong, to use the example of Justin's avatar, is an obvious one. Even the etymology of it's alternate name (Beirut, which is what many around here call it) seems to be easily deciphered given what a few rounds will do to the players involved.
I suppose that refernce is a bit tasteless given the events of the past week, but if nothing else it proves the aptness of the alternate name, I guess.
