Because I Feel That You Need a Truly Random Collection of Links

The only thing that connects this collection of links is that I think they're interesting. Hey, that's what I get paid to do.

* Star Wars characters invade Paris! They heard that's where we puny humans keep our scriptwriters! They're looking to find one to improve the pathetic dialogue they've been given the last three films. Too late now, my intergalactic friends.

* All baby poo smells bad, but if you're a mom, some baby poo smells less bad than others -- namely, your baby's poo. See, now, that's just weird, even if it makes some sort of twisted sense. I wonder if the same thing is in play for dads. I do know that I have no intention of volunteering to find out, however.

* Kevin "I impregnated a former Mouseketeer -- twice!" Federline apparently gets $20,000 a shot to show up at people's parties. Really? $20K for Mr. Britney Spears? I need to know which parties these are, not because I have a hate-on for Federline (hey, I don't have to deal with him), but because the kind of idjit who would pay twenty grand to have the 21st century's equivalent of Kato Kaelin show up and stand around is the kind of idjit I need to make sure I stay far away from. Fortunately, I'm sure almost none of them live in Ohio.

Hey: I'll show up to your party for a mere $10K. And a soda. Cold soda.

* Survey discovers: If you're the sort to listen to podcasts, chances are good you're also a geek. And not just any geek, but a Mac geek. I'm sorry, someone paid for this survey? I could have told you that. For, uh, $10K. And a cold soda. Yes, I do love my soda. They should do a list of the top ten soda movies (#1: The Coca-Cola Kid. Mmmm... Greta Scacchi).

* West African Black Rhino likely extinct. I hope you enjoyed your powdered rhino horn aphrodesiac, jerks (no, I'm not talking to you. Unless you have been using powdered rhino horn. In which case, I'm coming over to kick you. Right now).

* The 10 most expensive cars in the world. Start saving your pennies now. You'll have enough for a Bugatti Veyron sometime around the year 10,003. By which time gas will cost $1.7 million a gallon. Oh, the irony.

Speaking of Brintey, is it just me or is she totally trying to make Tonya Harding look classy?

I'll pay Federline $25,000 if he shows up at the Duke Lax party dressed as a crack-smoking black exotic dancer.
