Pray for Palliatives

Or don’t.

Sweetwater residents turned out at the downtown gazebo for a prayer rally, praying not for something but against alcohol coming to the restaurants in their town.

That’s right. There are people in Tennessee praying that a ballot measure to allow alcohol to be served in restaurants fails. And of course, it’s for the children:

“We want our children to grow up here without the influence of alcohol as much as possible,” says Barbara Raby.

And of course, the booze will bring social problems. All of this sound vaguely familiar.

Hmmmmm…..

Nah, couldn’t be.

The “O”-Pod

For those of you who like to get off to music, there’s a new toy for you: the iGasm

Women all over Britain are saying yes, yes, yes to the £30 iGasm that plugs into a music player and delivers good vibrations that pulse to the beat.

Those crazy Brits. But Apple is pissed because the ads for the iGasm are similar to their iPod ads. Oh, the shame.

Hey, Apple, get over yourselves.
