Garden Stretches
The Star Tribune has gone a little nutty this morning. Perhaps they’re just getting excited over there about the possibility of a new outdoor Twins Stadium. I don’t know. And maybe it’s just me, but I found the paper’s photo gallery of garden stretches both inspired and hilarious. And then there’s a fine story about 3M scotch tape. In which we learn “oddball uses of Scotch tape reported to 3M over the years” included:

• Covering cracks in the soft shells of fertilized pigeon and turkey eggs, which later hatched.
• Attaching labels to horses that were being auctioned.
• Patching the ceiling of an apartment in Bangkok, Thailand.
• Attaching a flashlight to the underside of a gun barrel when hunting barnyard pests at night.
• Binding together chickens’ legs while they are weighed.

Also, they’ve been running ads during The Shield for what looks to be a kick ass new series called 30 Days. It’s simply Morgan Spurlock of Super Size Me fame seeing what other terrifying things he can do for 30 days.

And, a movie starring Luke Wilson and Jack Black, with a soundtrack by Mark Mothersbaugh that I haven’t seen!?!? Does such a film really exist? Yes it does. It’s called Bongwater and apparently it is so terrible it went right to video.
