March 7, 2008First, thanks to Zill for this link to The International Ginger Kids Foundation. If you’ll remember, a few weeks ago the Brog lambasted Harry Potter’s choice of a ginger for a spouse. This was really narrow minded of the Brog and this web site demonstrates just how debilitating the disease Gingervitis can be.
Next, the Brogcrush on Bryon Fong continues. He sent me one of the coolest maps ever (and because the only thing the Brog loves more than pandas and Chipotle is geography, I was bigtime mesmerized). It compares the GDP’s of various countries to the GDP’s of each state in the Union. The intent of the map is to show just how dominant the US economy, but I found it endlessly amusing because any excuse to compare Peru and Utah, Pakistan and Arkansas, and Bangladesh and New Hampshire I find compretery hirarious (and you know who was thrilled that his home state got paired with Korea! A sign? I think so). I’m resisting the temptation for future brog pieces to refer to people from Tennessee as “the Saudis” or folks from West Virginia as “Algerians,” because it would cause too much confusion but I will maintain that it would have been funny.
And, finally, Ms. Talya Vatman, who apparently has assimilated quite nicely into London’s branch of the Russian mob, emailed me this link to a blog entry entitled: Stuff White People Like: #11 Asian girls. Obviously, this was an egregious ploy on our Jewish friend’s part to be mentioned in the brog, and it worked. The Stuff White People Like blog is a pretty entertaining read (though a tad overrated) and is usually updated daily, so give it a whirl.
There’s also a very realistic possibility that next week I’ll be able to post a link to the official Polish Horseshoes manifesto from the Cal State High Desert Website. Expect updates at the very minimum.
