World Toilet Day

Definitely a bastard tradition.
You know what to do.

I nominate a new Grand Poobah

I'm not even sure who the current Poobah is, but I'd like to nominate Eric as the new Grand Poobah. I nominate Eric because he probably has the least amount of free time. Eric, if elected, you'll be expected to spend 4-6 hours per day working on the blargh. You also have to sit up nights with Jay if he gets collicky. Any seconds?

Who Dat Nation Erupts

Jay, you can disregard this post because it's about sports. For the rest of you men, here's what shedding off forty years of disappointment looks like. Joe, you've picked just about the best time ever to visit New Orleans.

I'll See Your Bo Donaldson and Raise You a David Geddes

Something wrong with the embed on this, but go here to see the video for Run Joey Run. Story song? Check. Melodrama? Check. Sexy coiffed hunk singer who disappeared after his one hit? Check. Split screen? Check. I think we've got a winner.

British Police Will Reexamine 1969 Death of Rolling Stone Brian Jones

From the New York Times:

More than 40 years after the guitarist Brian Jones, a founding member of the Rolling Stones, was found dead at the bottom of his swimming pool, British police have said they will reexamine the case after receiving new information from an investigative journalist, Reuters reported. Jones, a bohemian blues musician who helped create the Rolling Stones in 1962 (and is said to have come up with the group’s name, taken from the Muddy Waters song “Rollin’ Stone Blues”), was found dead on July 3, 1969, at a home in East Sussex that once belonged to A. A. Milne. At that time, Jones had recently left the band, and a coroner’s report gave the official cause for his demise as “death by misadventure,” though subsequent films and books (including “The Murder of Brian Jones” by Anna Wohlin, a girlfriend of Jones who was with him when he died) have suggested that foul play was involved. British officials did not say what new information they had received or who had given it to them. But a spokesman for the Sussex police told Reuters, “These papers will be examined by Sussex Police but it is too early to comment at this time on what the outcome will be.”

Anyone know what the murder claims were/are based on?
