Short one this morning

Short one for me this morning. I have a meeting I have to run to.

War correspondent Peter Arnett has been fired by NBC and MSNBC for comments he had made during an interview he had granted to Iraqi TV.

CNN reported that Geraldo Rivera has been expelled from Iraq after he drew a map in the sand during a report, in violation of the reporting rules. Apparently he has been dropped off at the Kuwait border.

Two U.S. soldiers were stranded in the desert for a week and survived.

Well, I got fooled. That Dog Island thing from yesterday was a hoax, and I got sucked right into it. (Thanks for pointing it out Dave)

Check out all the stuff this guy makes out of aluminum cans.

See what you are.

Summer's coming, and so are mosquitos. Fortunately, there's a new Starwars Mosquito Defense System to keep them away.

This guy built a boat out of twigs.

Okay, this is very cool. Play 20 questions with the computer and have it guess what you are thinking of. I did it three times and it figured it out each time!

45 mph in a shopping cart

Some hackers tricked Network Solutions into making some technical changes that redirected web surfer heading for the Al-Jazeera website, to a porn site and a page displaying the U.S. flag.

A Vancouver girl was injured after the shopping cart she was riding in crashed while speeding down a hill at 45 miles per hour!

This is funny. A computer version of the start of the Bible.

Looks like "Trenyce" from American Idol is the latest of the show's contestants to her "checkered past" revealed. She had been arrested in 1999 on a felony theft charge.

Here's a better shot of the "WRISTOMO," that wristwatch cell phone I mentioned yesterday.

This is amazing. This guy figured out a way to place a record album on his flatbed scanner, scan it, and decode the data in the grooves to play music. It sounds crappy, but you can hear music. He calls it a "Digital Needle." (Thanks to Brian for pointing this one out.)

To any of you considering hypnosis.

This tank game is tough. I couldn't do it without crashing.

That blog from inside Iraq has been silent for several days now, and everyone is wondering what happened to the author.

Thursday quickie

Lucky guy! A Royal Marine Commando was shot in the head four times and lived to tell about it. His Kevlar helmet saved his life.

The DUI coordinator for a county in Georgia was arrested for, you guessed it, driving under the influence. Idiot.

Here's a weird one: Scientists say 6.7 magnitude earthquake is taking place right now beneath the Northwest US, but it's slowly unleashing its energy instead of letting it out in one big quake.

Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan died Wednesday at age 76.

WTNH has a short transcript of one of former Mayor Giordano's cell phone conversations. Sick stuff.

Callipygian bottom. (Look it up)

This takes a while to load, and you have to wait through an ad, but watch what happens when these delivery guys arrive at a home and find a naked woman answering the door.

Check this wrist cellphone out. It's only for the Japanese market for now, but it's cool.

Want some shitty advice? Here you go.

Make a visit to the Center for Vanished Celebrities.

Lisa Marie Presley admits that she actually had sex with Michael Jackson.

Hard to find non-war news

With all the war news, it's getting harder to find things that are not war related.

Here's one war related site that I find very interesting. It's a "blog" written by a guy inside Baghdad. Very interesting reading. He was knocked off the net for a few days, but he's back.

Former Waterbury Mayor Phil Giordano was found guilty on nearly all counts in his federal child-sex abuse trial. It was also his 40th birthday.

Connie Chung got the boot from CNN.

This is scary: That mysterious and deadly flu-like illness turns out to be caused by a variation of the common cold virus.

Researchers are testing a new, experimental painkiller that is two to three times more powerful than morphine and is non-addictive. This is great news. Do you have any idea how many people become addicts as a results of legitimately prescribed painkillers?

Hey, those of you in Norway who saw that UFO the other night-- investigators think it was a cat getting electrocuted on a live wire.

The City of Grove City, Minnesota fired its two-person police department, and the residents are pissed.

Cool shot of a satellite launch.

A new enzyme-catalyzed battery has been created that could one day run cell phones and laptop computers on shots of vodka.

Are you a Hooters fan? So is this guy.

Now they're boycotting American goods overseas in protest to the war in Iraq.

It's that time of year again. Spring-Breakers losing their inhibitions.

Wondering what could happen if the Terror Alert goes to red?

Check out the computer this guy built.

Here's a different sort of pet. How about a penguin?

Weekly Picture Contest Change ***

There is going to be a slight change in the winners prize of the weekly contest photo quote contest like I mentioned last week .

In the past , the winners were allowed to submit to me a paragraph or two that would be added into my Mondays column but I recently thought that just wasnt enough .....so here is the change ...

Now you will be allowed to do a whole column that will be posted on it's own , SEPARATE from mine with your own name on it ...you can add links , sites ...whatever you wish to do with it is fine with me ..If you want to rant on for a couple 1000 words ...fine with me , its your column .

And the Winners column will now be posted on TUESDAY, not monday anymore ..this is to give the winner a little while longer to look for some good stuff to add to his or her's column ..

You will send me the column the same way , to my email address and I will add it for you , if you need help on how do it ..pointers or such just let me know .

So good luck with those quotes and I am looking forward to seeing your name up in the DC !

The war continues...

There are far better sources than here to get this news, but here's a quick summary: It's 3:00 am Friday morning, and U.S. and British troops are inside Iraq and heading to Baghdad. So far the "shock and awe" that was expected, has not occurred. There's no definitive answer as to what's going on, but after watching and reading the various news coverage at this hour, it looks like Iraqi military leaders are in communication with U.S. officials and that Sadam is either dead, injured or for whatever reason no longer in control of his military. Anyway, here's the latest briefing.

Okay, onto the non-war stuff...

This guy's not to bright: A man who pleaded guilty to aggravated assault had an additional six months tacked onto his eight-year sentence after he mooned the judge.

Forty-nine-year-old Don Gorske eats two Big Macs each day, and logs everything that he eats. He ate his 19,000th Big Mac on Tuesday and is in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Monica Lewinsky will soon be hosting a new hidden-identity dating show for Fox, called "Mr. Personality." It debuts in April.

Here's a game with a "War on Terror" theme. Swap heads to get three in a row.

These are cute: Vagina Paintings.

Okay, check out this giant breast collage. When reduced, it looks like this.

If you have the time, read this. It's a great story about a guy who deposited a fake check for $95,000 and the adventure that ensued.

Here's an ominous photo.

Meanwhile, a tobacco farmer protesting declining subsidies held police at bay on Tuesday from his tractor in a pond near Washington's monuments.

On Tuesday, New Haven police pulled a car over in a routine motor vehicle stop. They arrested the driver and placed him in the back of a cruiser that was equipped with a cage and secure doors. Somehow, he got out, jumped in another cruiser and took off.

Eminem has hired a body double for fear of being shot by a rap rival.

What does the fully equipped American soldier carry with him into battle? Baby wipes! It actually makes sense. I carry them in my car for the same reason.

Bored? Play some soccer.

This advertisement was banned in the UK because it was considered too scary for children.

This is cool: Front pages of newspapers from around the world.

Laurie got locked out of the house yesterday wearing nothing but long t-shirt (and I mean nothing). To get in, she borrowed a ladder from the yard next door, climbed onto the porch roof and squeezed in the second floor bathroom window. These things only happen to Laurie.

48 hours

Well, this ought to be an interesting week. In his speech last night, President Bush gave Saddam 48 hours (until 8:15 p.m. EST on Wednesday) to get him and his youngins outta town. Right after his speech, the Terror Alert was raised to orange. Meanwhile, between between 20,000 and 30,000 Iraqi soldiers have already deserted their posts.

Okay, let's go...

I wasn't able to attend, but Brian wanted to send his thanks to all of you who stopped by Happy Hour at Mario's Cafe in Derby yesterday. He said everyone had a great time.

This is pretty cool. It's called "bar code art." Here's one of Ronald Reagan. Click here to zoom in. And here's the rest of the collection.

You know the old saying "marriage changes everything"? Well, apparently it doesn't.

In local news, Joe Carlucci, owner of Carlucci's Restaurant in Bethel, CT, and a member of the United States Pizza Team, will compete at the World Pizza Championship in April in Salsomaggiore, Italy.

I've never been to Germany, maybe some of you have been there and can relate to this article on their toilets.

Mystery illness

The World Health Organization has issued a warning about a highly contagious and deadly pneumonia-like illness of unknown cause that is becoming a "worldwide health threat."

The heads of the US, England and Spain are meeting in the Azores to synchronize their watches for the start of the war. (My guess is the war will start within 7 days from today.) Meanwhile, the war protests continue.

This is cool: PigeonCam!

Three Kenyans died trying to retrieve a mobile phone that had fallen into a latrine. The fumes inside the open pit latrine were poisonous.

A warning from a talking fish?

Oops! The Vatican has lost the keys to heaven. Now what the hell are we gonna do?

This is kinda fun: Try cleaning up this parking lot.

Oh yeah, those supposed photos of the Space Shuttle exploding going around via email-- like everything else like this you ever receive, it's a hoax. These types of email messages are all hoaxes. Complete utter bullshit. I repeat, they are all hoaxes. Stop wasting bandwidth and spreading rumors. Delete anything you receive that makes you say "Oh My God!" because they are all hoaxes. (Same with virus warnings-- they're all hoaxes.) End of story.

Check out this shaved pussy.

A Canadian man who began to create a chewing gum wrapper chain as a child in 1965 has passed the million mark. It's over eight miles long! Here's his website.

Great time yesterday

We had a great time at the Pre-St. Patrick's Day Party at Callahan's yesterday. Thanks to Callahan's, Bobby Fant from HotRoc Productions, Bruce Barber and all of you who stopped by.

For those of you who could not attend, I have a bunch of photos that I will be adding to the site by week's end. And yes, there was some Mardi Gras flashing.

Today is Laurie's birthday, so I decided to spend the evening with her last night instead of doing a column. I'll try to do one later today if I have time, but I really want to spend the entire day with her.

See you at the party.

Good Morning!! This is gonna be a short column because I have to go to sleep early for once. I'll see you at Callahan's in Cheshire in a few short hours for what's sure to be a great Pre-St. Patrick's Day Party. Bring your thirst and your appetite because they'll be plenty of beer, and the traditional St. Pat's food.

And ladies, remember to dress to impress. Not only will there be Mardi Gras beads for you to woo from the guys, (Here's a list of tips for trading beads.) but we're going to be looking for the "HotRoc Girl" to help with future HotRoc parties. Bobby Fant will also have tattoos to apply to you personally. Oh yeah, I'll be taking photos of it all too.

Okay, just a few things tonight...

Michael Jackson lost and the concert promoter was awarded $5.3 million for two concerts canceled Jackson canceled back in 1999.

What a lovely couple.

A guy in Texas, accused of mistreating his 11-year-old stepson, has been ordered to spend 30 nights in a kennel.

Ever wonder why we have pubic hair?

Universal Studios Japan made a really big cookie.

Oops! A 12-year-old German boy accidentally burned down a poolhouse and a summer pavilion with a flaming paper airplane.

How about a few nice tops to get in the mood for the party? Nice top. And another. And another.

Okay, that's it. See you at the party.

Two more days til the party!

The U.S. government said it had no information to substantiate an Iranian Radio report that Osama bin Laden has been captured and is being held by Pakistani Intelligence. And Pakistan said the report is unfounded and baseless.

Yesterday, the U.S. successfully tested MOAB, (the "Mother of all Bombs") Eglin Air Force Base in northwest Florida. Here's the Department of Defense video. (Lousy quality)

Strike a pose.

Great news! A national "do-not-call" list is now the law. Consumers will be able to enroll in the free service by Internet or toll-free number. Telemarketers will have to check the list every three months to find out who does not want to be called. If they call a person on the list, they could be fined up to $11,000! It should begin operation by this summer.

Plumber's Butt Crack Caulk.

You know how the President "pardons" a turkey each Thanksgiving? Well, turkeys that have been pardoned by the President will now get heat, better bedding, more munchies and even chickens (for friends).

Fathers who breastfeed?

How cold has it been this winter? Cold enough that three of the Great Lakes (Lake Huron, Lake Superior and Lake Erie) have frozen over for the first time in nearly a decade.

General Motors is pulling the plug on its electric car, the "EV1." It never sold the, it only leased it, and it's now demanding every EV1 be returned.

It's about time. AOL has introduced new "Pop-Up Controls" for AOL 8.0.

Here's and interesting site: Rude Food.

Okay, so we have some snow coming tomorrow, but it's supposed to melt away by Friday. So, it won't affect the Pre-St. Patrick's Day Party at Callahan's! From the folks I've spoken with, it looks like were gonna have a great turnout.

Short one today

There's another PayPal scam circulating. Watch out.

If you're among the approximately 1.5 million Americans who are allergic to peanuts, there's hope. An experimental treatment involving monthly injections has successfully stopped the severe reactions of people who risk death if they ingest the slightest amount of peanut protein.

I'll bet this dog wants to kill it's master.

I thought prices around here were high. Check out the gas prices in San Francisco.

I wonder if we'll use this against Saddam?

It's amazing how many fetishes there are. A woman in London was tricked into letting a complete stranger smear her bare feet with baked beans and syrup "for charity." He took some photos and left.

Interesting outfit. She looks like she has six boobs.

A 58-year-old woman has given birth to twins after receiving fertility treatment.

Librarians in Santa Cruz are warning patrons that the goverment may be spying on them.

Here's something refreshing for a change... Bob Knight told Texas Tech he wouldn't accept his $250,000 coaching salary this year because his team failed to live up to his expectations — and so did he.

Iraqi soldiers surrender

Apparently, Hans Blix forgot to mention his discovery of an undeclared, unmanned aircraft in Iraq. It has a wingspan of 7.45 meters and can be used to disperse chemical and biological agents.

Meanwhile, a bunch of Iraqi soldiers "surrendered" to British troops who were conducting military exercises near the Iraqi border. The Iraqis thought the war had begun. The british told them that they couldn't surrender yet, because the war had not started.

Think your cable modem is fast? Scientists at Stanford University used fiber-optic cables to transfer 6.7 gigabytes of data -- roughly two full DVD movies -- across 6,800 miles in less than a minute! Imagine porn at that speed!

Why guys like golf.

Use of the Internet was banned for years under the Taliban government, but Afghanistan will officially activate its .af Internet domain name today.

This guy does custom artwork -- on teeth.

Now this is a smart farmer. Dennis Haubenschild, a dairy farmer from Princeton, Minnesota, uses the manure from his 800 cows to power a 150 kilowatt generator, which not only provides all the electricity for his farm, but also enough for 80 nearby homes.

This thing is fun to play with.

And the winner is Dan Bridges with the quote " Rosie O'Donnell's last attempt to get a male date as a teenager" ...and for this funny quote , Dan gets to write his very own column and here it is ....
Wow. Winning with my first submission ever means one
of three things. 1- I am a caption writing genius. 2- I've shot my comedy load very quickly (really, it's never happened to me before). 3- Everyone else's was lame or they couldn't get their email to work. That may be four but whichever it was, I enjoy the site and am honored to win this award. I am also honored to
present my wife. I am one lucky man as you can see.

War is just around the corner

Well, dust off the duct tape and unfold the plastic sheeting. Bush prepared the country for war last night.

4.7 million chickens have been quarantined here in Connecticut because of a possible outbreak of avian influenza at an egg farm in the eastern part of the State.

Saddam has ordered U.S. and British style military uniforms to be used by his military to attack Iraqi civilians, and blame it on Western forces.

Only one week until the Pre-St. Patrick's Day Party at Callahan's. Let's celebrate this continued tradition in a big way. Come on down and bring your friends!

According to the mayor of Panama City Beach, Florida, if any "Girls Go Wild" in his town this spring break, they will be arrested. Killjoy!

For the second time, a federal appeals court has ruled that the "Child Online Protection Act," which barred Website operators from posting information "inappropriate for minors" unless they limited the site to adults, is unconstitutional, because it restricted free speech. (If it were the law, I would have to password protect this site, and verify that each of you was over 18.)

Speaking of free speech, Vice President Dick Cheney had his lawyer try to get the guy who runs whitehouse.org to remove a photo of his wife and a fake biography. Tough shit, Dick. It's called the First Amendment, and it rules.

One more free speech note: The (idiot) owner of that shopping mall where that lawyer was arrested for refusing to either leave, or remove his "Peace on Earth" t-shirt dropped the charges.

And, some lighter stuff...

How to become an obnoxious internet cam whore in five easy steps.

A long tongue gallery.

How to build the best paper airplane in the world.

This helicopter simulation is really cool. (I'm a helicopter pilot so i really liked it.)

The government will unveil a new $20 bill that will, for the first time ever, have a color other than green in the background.

Keith sent this in: A giant Cheeto up for auction on eBay. (Thanks Keith)

The other day I had asked where all the pro-war protests were. Fox News has a story on the topic.

The entire movie "Deep Throat," in ASCII text.

This guy collects people's discarded grocery lists.

Remember the old Atari 2600? Well, now you can get an Atari joystick with 10 classic games built in that hooks right up to your TV.

Crash, bang

My posting was a bit delayed this morning because I'm a bit sore. I got into a car accident yesterday. I was in the left hand lane of George Street, and a woman in the right hand lane took a left turn right in front of me, forcing me off the road. I had about 10 feet to decide whether to hit a big tree or a parked car, and I opted for the parked car. End result? My jeep was totaled, the parked car was totaled, and Laurie and I are both alive, but sore.

Here's an amazing one. A man was arrested and charged with trespassing in an Albany shopping mall on Monday night after he refused to take off his t-shirt that said "Peace on Earth" and "Give peace a chance." This ought to be interesting, the guy's a lawyer.

Back in November, I told you about a small adult novelty store known as "Victor's Little Secret" that was sued by lingerie giant Victoria's Secret. Well, the Supreme Court decided the case and the little guy won.

The Connecticut Lottery is launching a new CD-ROM-based lottery game.

A Mardi Gras photo, and another, and another and one more.

Delta Airlines is testing out a "Computer Assisted Passenger Prescreening System," or CAPPS, which would require background checks on all airline passengers when they book a ticket, including checking credit reports, banking and criminal records. Their new motto, Delta: We love to snoop and it shows.

Nice top(less).

Do me a favor. I want each of you to email or call one other person about the Pre-St. Pat's Party at Callahan's. It's gonna be a blast. Here are some photo's of last year's event that are posted at drunks.com. Check out Bobby Fant applying a tattoo in the bottom right-hand photo on this page.

A few months ago, I posted a link to a site that displayed the Playboy Playmate for the month in which you were born. Playboy made the website take it down, but it's back. A reader had asked me about it about a month ago, but I don't remember who. Anyway, here it is.

Happy Mardi Gras!

According to Vanity Fair Magazine, Michael Jackson wears a prosthetic nose, bleaches his skin white because he does not like being black and once paid $150,000 for a "curse" to kill Steven Spielberg.

This is fun.

Sergei Fedorov says he and Anna Kournikova were briefly married but are now divorced and they no longer talk. Well, at least he can say he has slept with her.

It's Mardi Gras! I watched this damn live Mardi Gras cam for about ten minutes last night and I didn't see a single girl flash for beads.

Don't forget, we're having our own "Mardi Gras bead" fest at the Pre-St. Pats Party at Callahan's on March 14th. We'll have the beads, you bring the boobs.

Speaking of the Pre-St. Pats Party at Callahan's, we'd like to do a parking lot parade like Smith & Barber did each year just before Callahan's opened their bar. When the parade enters the bar, it's officially drinking time! What do you think? Think we can get enough of you committed to put together a small parade? Anyone have a bagpipe or a marching band uniform, or any other parade-type stuff? If you're interested in doing a parking lot parade, start a topic in the Discussion Forums.

Apparently, Britney threw a nipple-piercing party for Halloween, and nearly everyone got pierced except for her because she said she is already pierced.

A German artist has applied for a license to open a brothel in Berlin for sexually frustrated dogs.

" WOW... you like me... you really like me. You know when you get into this buisness you don't dare let yourself dream that you could acheive such a lofty goal. But each time you submit a quote a little voice in the back of your head says,"Maybe this time..." Then you get an honorable mention and you tell yourself, "Oh it's just an honor to be nominated!" Trying to make yourself belive that you don't do it for the awards but for your fans. Well, I'm here to tell you that's all BULLSHIT!! Losing sucks!!!!! And I do it all for me!!!! LOL Cuz baby, if I can't make myself laugh who the hell is gonna. In closing I'd like to thank Faith Hill for being the peice of ass that she is. "

New feature: Events Central

I added a new feature to the site called "Events Central." You can view, search and add events. "Events" can be anything from the Pre-St. Pat's Party at Callahan's to local band gigs, fundraisers, speakers or even tag sales. Pretty much any local event that you want people to know about. I'll be reviewing all the submissions before they go live just to make sure it's legit, and that all of the info is accurate.

A sketch by artist Salvador Dali that has hung in New York's Riker's Island prison since 1965, has been stolen and replaced with a copy. It's estimated to be worth at least $175,000.

Nine out of eleven British citizens who went to Iraq to be "human shields" have returned to Britain after Iraqi officials told them they had to position themselves at places like to be bombed if they wanted to stay. They said it was "too dangerous." Um, isn't that why they went there? What good is being a "human shield" if you're afraid to position yourself where the bombs will drop?

A 13-yr-old British girl submitted an english essay in SMS text. It baffled the teacher.

Hmm. What exactly is he guarding?

A rain dance in Australia, involving 500 nude women, has been declared a success even though it still has not rained. Of course it was a success. There were 500 nude women dancing around!

Bored? Play some Celebrity Breast Match. There are 215 celebrities to match to their breasts. Or, play this mosquito game. Or, this spider game.

Does it take you too long to put on a condom? Well, try the new "Hotrod Condoms." There's even a demo video there.

Finally, WTF?

Rich's Contest Winners Column

Ok Folks, The ballots are in and we have a winner ..after a whirl wind of controversy and about a dozen hate mails about the pic last week it is all in the past !!

Here is the Contest Picture again that made a couple new enemies last week ...

And the winner was RBartholemew with the quote " After this latest incident at the Hilton , John is longer admitted to handle the wake up calls anymore "

Unfortunatley , RBartholemew never sent me a column to put in this week so there will be no winners column but it is still a great job by Rob !!

Second place went to VJ with " Budget cuts to the fire dept. left the chief with few options "

And Third place went to Tom Colleran with "No you dumb shit!!! I said it's cold in the shower - not golden shower!!!!!"

Some real funny ones this week but its a shame only 3 can win !!

Here is this weeks CONTEST PHOTO .....Good Luck and send all entries to richie@thedailycolumn.com

Ok , shall we get busy .....

A senior government official warned today that Iraq would halt the destruction of its short-range missiles if the United States tried to circumvent the United Nations Security Council to attack his country...this is ok , there will be no one to fire those weapons after we blow your country sky high !!

Discussion Groups login problem

A few of you have written me to tell me you are having problems logging in to the Discussion Groups. For what it's worth, I am having the same problem. It's because of a bug with Internet Explorer version 6.x and "cookies." (This version is really buggy)

If you are not able to log into or out of the Discussion Groups, or if it refuses to save your password, here's the only way to fix it (until MS fixes their program):

From within Internet Explorer:

 1. Select Tools
 2. Select Internet Options
 3. Select the General tab
 4. In the Temporary Internet Files section, click Settings.
 5. Press the View Files button.
 6. Scroll down the "Name" column on the left, until you find the file called: Cookie:yourusername@www.thedailycolumn.com/
 7. Right-click on that file and select Delete.
 8. Close the Temporary Internet Files folder.
 9. Close all of the Internet Options windows.
10. Go back to the Discussion Groups and try to login.

I know this is annoying, but this is the only "fix" that I know of.

Sorry, I took the day off yesterday

I took the day off yesterday. Looks like you all kept yourself busy in the discussion groups.

Former President Bill Clinton has been called for jury duty for an attempted murder trial, and he says that he wants to serve. (But, it'll never happen.)

Hey, don't forget about the Pre-St. Patrick's day Party at Callahan's on Friday, March 14th!

During a snowstorm last Sunday in Oklahoma, Doug Jones, was nice enough to pull a few vehicles out of snowdrifts with his four-wheel-drive truck. Oklahoma State Troopers with emergency lights flashing pulled up behind Jones, walked up to his truck and issued him a $117 ticket for creating a hazard.

Bushify some words.

Remember that rad rage incident in California where that asshole grabbed that woman's dog from her car and threw it to it's death into oncoming traffic? Well, he's filed a lawsuit against her and a newspaper claiming mental anguish, etc., etc. What a dickhead.

Appropriate vandalism.

Yet another nude protest. I wonder why there hasn't yet been a nude pro-war protest in response?

Here's a comforting thought: State Farm Insurance has added a "nuclear exclusion" to all of its auto policies, disclaiming coverage for nuclear blast or meltdowns.

This is fun to play with.

Hey guys, can you relate to this? ThingsMyGirlfriendAndIHaveArguedAbout.com.

How would you like to be buried in one of these?

This is great: The Breakfast Cereal Character Guide.

Unfortunately the auction has ended, but there were two brand new twinkies for sale on eBay.

And, let's end it with a nice shot of Cameron Diaz in a see through top.
