Google Kills
the Planet?
LG- Apparently one of our favorite pastimes
is now
destroying one of our favorite planets, Earth. According to Physicist Alex Wissner-Gross (check out that boyish
photo), 2 google searches equals the
same amount of destruction as boiling a pot of tea (we had to do an in
depth Google search to see what that meant). So from now on we’re off tea!
Cow Gas
Destroys Our World?
LG-The LA Times and many other news
organizations
have reported that cow flatulence is more of a contributor to global warming
than cars. Really? Um what about the millions
of
buffalo that were killed off in the 1800’s? Do we really have more livestock
than that or were the number of buffalo exaggerated? Not taking a side on the
cow emission issue here but I’m just sayin’.
$1000 Bucks Says You’re
Rich!
LG-Some months ago some guy put an app on the iPhone app store for an application called “I am rich”. This did nothing but
put a gemstone picture on your phone. Armin Heinrich sold 8 of those bad boys
before Apple took it down. Apparently it was too useless, although Apple gave
no explanation.
Cell Phones Get You Drunk!
LG- Like 12 years
ago some people began saying how talking
on cell
phones was like drunk driving. This could be because the phones were the size
of a bottle of vodka back then. At least most people don’t vomit after talking
on the cell phone for hours.
Is it really like being drunk? That would mean talking
on the cell
phone while doing anything else would be like being drunk. Like talking on the
cell phone and watching a humorous show should make it funnier. And they say
this is true even if you are using a hands-free device. So, people working in
offices using headsets would be constantly stone-drunk since they use them all
day. This explains many of the receptionists that I have met.
Also what about teenagers? They're on the phone all
the time...
Taxing Carbohydrates?
LG-There may be a tax in New York only on sugary sodas
not on diet sodas.
