Food Police Blotter
Source: AP
The food police are out in full effect doing everything they can to shove their agenda down our throats. The latest example of this comes from the city I grew up in – Minneapolis. The Minneapolis Public Schools have removed chocolate milk from the lunchroom menu saying that it is making our children fat. Desserts have been off the menu since 2006. The chocolate milk kids drink at school may very well be the only calcium they get. Think about it.
It doesn’t stop here though. Some schools in Chicago think they know what diet is best for your child and have banned bag lunches from home.

The attack on McDonald’s continues too. The watchdog group called Corporate Accountability International argue that the iconic Ronald McDonald is to fast food and obesity what Joe Camel was to cigarettes and smoking-related health issues. The food police want him banned. McDonald’s is doing a half-hearted job defending him though. You won’t find him on their website or featured in any ads.
And let us not forget how San Francisco banned the Happy Meal toy unless the meal met certain nutritional standards. TIME had the nerve to ask if the crack down on McDonald’s went far enough.

An interview with the guy that is positive the rapture will happen this Saturday
Harold Camping
Harold Camping is a Christian radio broadcaster and president of Family Radio, a California-based religious broadcasting network that spans more than 150 outlets in the United States. He is convinced that the rapture will occur this Saturday (May 21st), and that the world will be destroyed by October.
He predicted this before in 1994, but admits he was mistaken back then with his calculations.
Here is a written interview with Camping explaining his reasoning and belief in May 21st being judgement day.
If you believe his prediction is correct, you may want to get right before you get left.
You may also want to have an atheist care for your pets when they get left behind.
All of you skeptics can continue to read Duck Duck Gray Duck on 5/22.

What are These Strawberries Doing on My Nipples?: I Need Them for the Fruit Salad!

No really, it’s an honest-to-goodness published book from 1995. For those who don’t know the reference – it’s a google suggest joke. Check out the book funny book reviews here on Amazon.com.

This image is NOT a painting
This image is NOT a painting. Nor is it a Photoshop job or an artist’s rendering. It’s a photograph, taken by National Geographic’s Frans Lanting. The photograph is of some camel thorn trees in Namib-Naukluft Parkin the Namib Desert in Africa (considered the world’s oldest desert).
The trees and sand look real when viewed closely. The orange backdrop? That’s a dune reflecting Namibia’s rising sun. The white bits are plants growing on the dune, and the orange is the sand itself. If you go to the site and look at the larger version, it’s a lot more obvious.
It is hard to believe this has not been manipulated. The image is simply stunning.
