Weekend nothingness

So, while trying to ignore any real news stories out there (because, let's face it, they're depressing) and attempting to avoid "other" "news" no matter how futile such an escape from crap may be. Here's some random stuff for the few people who ever visit here. Basically I'm typing myself a list of a bunch of links I've already seen. Or, you could just keep yourself up at night pondering lawmakers' priorities.
First, enjoy the story of the Corporate thinktank (I guess) which put out a video portraying the positive aspects of carbon dioxide that the hippie-fied bedwetting leftist elite media DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW!!! They didn't even mention what it does for the carbonation industry. In the interest of disclosure, the institute in question may or may not be sponsored by some businesses that might employ people that I can neither confirm nor deny are my friends. There's analysis here, here, and here and as always comments that exemplify the high standards of discourse that we have come to expect from the internet.
Or, you could just read up on your run of the mill "Going for it on fourth down as economic theorem" paper (I guess that's what it was about). Or, delve into how emotions can affect how we remember events (finally, it's paying off to be pessimistic). And finally, be sure to hoard provisions for the upcoming apocalypse. Not from the bird flu (especially now that you can make your own Tamiflu), but from the L.A. Clippers sudden rise to prominance.
