Yesterday I had eggs for breakfast. Today, I had eggs for breakfast and dinner. Unfortunately, none of them were green. If I’d travelled to Mexico, there’s a chance I could have indulged this fantasy of mine. Or, I could just wait until St. Patrick’s Day, buy some green food coloring, and dye my eggs green. But video of a hen laying green eggs is pretty cool anyway. Check it out. [story]
It’s official. Johan Santana has passed a physical and is bringing his career .258 batting average to Queens. With his pockets lined with $137.5 million dollars, and one career triple (plus one career double) to his name, Santana will join a New York Mets club that has instantly transformed into the proverbial “team to beat” (at least, on paper) in the National League. Oh yeah, also, his career 9.50 strikeouts-per-nine-innings, his .679 winning percentage, and his two Cy Young awards should help the team from a pitching perspective. [story]
Some sort of bizarre new mammal was discovered in the mountains of Tanzania. I don’t know about you, but this sort of thing freaks me out, because I don’t think scientists often discover new mammals. Sure, there are always new fish and new birds to find, those fuckers can be pretty elusive. But to find a new species of animal …that’s pretty impressive. The thing looks fucking gross too. Look at the top of this page. That’s what they found. Gnarly, right? [story]
“Alaska is one of 12 U.S. states considering making salvia…illegal.” This is disappointing. Because, for a while, salvia was a completely legal sage that could knock even the biggest dude on his ass and tear apart the fabric of the universe. If you’re into hallucinogens and haven’t tried salvia, you’re missing out. Buy some online before it’s too late. It’ll really change things for you. Right, Sam? [story]
CostCo (they love you!) is going to be selling its own brand of beer, soon. If it’s anything like the Trader Joe’s brand of whisky, I’m sold. That stuff knocked me on my ass the one time I had it, and I remember sitting out behind Phoebe’s watching constellations for what felt like hours. It was pretty intense, I tell you. If Costco can somehow harness that power in a canned beer, I’d be in awe of them. As much as I hate the idea of their company, the fact that their pharmacy is so cheap, and their tires are so cheap…it’s impossible not to give them my business. [story]
