Not Funny But True!
Back in 2008 Fredric J. Baur – 89, the designer of the Pringles potato crisp packaging system was buried in one of his cans. Well, not all of him. Part of his cremated remains went in the Pringles container and two urns. One urn was buried with the Pringles can and the other was given to a grandson, said Baur’s daughter, Linda Baur. I have only one thing to say on this. Mr Fredric J.Baur’s can idea was one of those greatest inventions, and will probably live on forever.

Are You Kidding!
I just found out that Johnny Depp was voted last years “Sexiest Man Alive.” That right, People’s magazine decided that Depp is the “Sexiest Man Alive.” He had won this so called award one another time in 2003, making him a 2 time winner. The only other 2 time winners are Brad Pitt, George Clooney and Richard Gere. I personally can’t see the point why People magazine needs to do this. I would like to know who comes up with this kind of crap. You would think they could come up with something better than this. I also think People should dump this stupid thing. Mostly because People only consider people that are famous people, in the spot light. If they would give the choice to regular people to submit themselves then I’m all for it. Until they give everyone the chance this so called award means nothing. And on top of it, they select Depp, one of the weirdest people in Hollywood.

Nintendo’s New Top Seller!
I was just reading an article online that was talking about a game tracking website that tracks the sales of games. And in this article it stated that Super Mario Bros. has been just knocked of its throne by Wii Sports. That’s right, the game Wii Sports is now the most sold game in the world. It seems that Super Mario Bros. has sold over 40 million plus copies to date. And the Wii Sports game as reached over 45 million copies. Are you wondering how Wii Sports went to the top so fast? Well they did it by including it with the purchase of the Wii hardware. So is it fair that it is considered number one now? I don’t know and who really cares at this point. The main reason I wanted to share this article with all of you is who has the time to do this type of tracking. And most importantly, what’s the point? Am I the only one who thinks this type of information is a great waste of time? Maybe I am, I don’t know. What do you all think?
Down Under!
One of golf’s biggest underdogs, John Daly is in trouble again. We’ll, maybe not that much trouble. John Daly is in Australia right now playing in a few tournaments, which he’s being paid an appearance fee. What had happened was a rude spectator reached out with his camera and snapped a shot right into his face. So Daly reached out for the camera and grabbed it out of his hands. Daly’s next move is so him, he smashed it against a tree. I guess we really can’t blame him for acting that way, I would have done the same thing. Plus, cameras aren’t even aloud on the course by spectators. That guy is lucky that Daly didn’t pop him in the face, which is what I would have done. Anyway, Daly hasn’t gotten in any trouble as of yet and it doesn’t look like he will.
