This is how you interpret Michael Jackson. If your losing your hair. And you’re about fifty pounds overweight. But still are able to move. On TV. In Japan. Link.

Forget those weird amorphous pink blobby things. All you need is one of these handy fake plastic beans. It's the hot new craze that's taking Japan by storm! Witness the hilarity as your buddies chow down on fake edamame. Or not.

"Ever noticed that the packaging of headache remedies isn’t exactly easy on the eye? Ironic, really, that when you want something soothing to ail your pounding skull, the products available sit on the chemist’s shelf and SHOUT their MESSAGES OF URGENT HELP in bold, bright colours, seemingly without a care for your poor tired eyes and head. Now this (above), from Help Remedies, is a nice idea that turns down the volume on medicine packaging. Their packets of pills and plasters not only look great but are also made of 100% recycled paper pulp. And at $6 for 12 headache pills (or 8 plasters), that’s not much more than most of the more well-known brands, so these are no vanity purchase. Plus you’ll get to look just that little bit cooler when you’re ill."

"You've gotta wonder how, in a company the size of Microsoft, there's not a single person who has the balls to step up and say "Hey, you know what? This Vista music video we're making for the sales department, complete with a cheesy Bruce Springsteen impersonator and horrible music, damages the dignity of not only everyone involved in its production, but everyone who watches it." Seriously, how did this little slice of cringe-inducing embarrassment ever get made?"...

It can't be easy being Dick Cheney, V.P.O.T.U.S. (Vice President Of The United States), second in command of the world's most powerful nation, constantly under pressure to perform. How he must long to escape, to do a Vladimir Putin and take just the one photographer on a macho foray into the countryside.
Of course, sometimes he gets the chance to do just that. Fly fishing for a few days with some trusted aides and colleagues. Only in the picture here, which you'll also find on his official website, look closely and you'll see in the reflection of his glasses exactly the sort of aide-de-camp/second lady our Dick likes to take with him. No wonder he's smiling.
