Just wrong food

Not since Muscle Media published a story about chocolate covered lard candy in the Russia have I seen a worse food idea than this. Listening to Dreams by The Cranberries album Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We?, streamed from someone elses computer so iTunes won’t let me grab the song information.

Babylon 5

I’m a fan of Babylon 5 – yet another SF show I liked and it went away – and thought I’d post a couple of related links. First the second season is available on DVD. I pre-ordered it but haven’t had a chance to watch it. Second I found a site on the relative size…
