Friday Six - How ‘Bout A Quickie Edition

by Mark Jabo

I’m normally a pretty punctual dude.

So, when having a job — which is important if you care about the little things in life like food, clothing and shelter — interferes with blogging, I have a moral dilemma.

Do I simply skip the Friday Six and let you think I was in such a foul mood that I couldn’t find six things in the entire week that amused me?

Do I come up with some lame excuse like my dog ate my lap top?

Or do I just level with you guys and let you know that groveling for a paycheck was, for one day, more important than bringing a solitary ray of joy into someone’s life?

Given those three options, I chose number four. So, I’m attempting a compromise here with a hastily compiled and posted Friday Six.

You know the deal. Six web finds. No alliteration.

The Friday Six. It’s like speed dating but without the annoying unibrow.

You know how you get little pieces of knowledge stuck in the grooves of your brain? Mental Floss helps prevent having to go to a dentist and get a lobotomy at some later date. Especially when it comes to political rhetoric.

Bible translated into LOL cats language. Can somebody put a virtual stake in the heart of this phenomenon now?

Maybe not the funniest thing all week, but it may be the coolest. Even as a Orioles fan, I have to say the Chicago Cubs one’s my favorite. Obama vintage baseball jerseys. Shirts you can change into.

Rock anthem or post-Hegelian rebirth of German Romanticism? Wait, couldn’t “Rock You Like A Hurricane” be both? Fun stuff from the brand new Clay Pigeon magazine.
