Amazon.com — the US version, not the scaled-down imitation you get in other parts of the world including Canada — is a pretty wonderful store, and although they’re famous as booksellers they’ll sell most anything.

If only there had been some way for them to kind of foretell the future…
The Astrological Magazine was forced to stop publication in December 2007 due to “unforeseen circumstances”. I guess they just didn’t see that one coming…

And the Janus prize for two-facedness goes to…
Pretty much everyone likes to speed a little sometimes. With a nice car and a nice bit of road, a decent driver will feel the beckoning and put his foot down a little. Of course sometimes some berk overdoes it and ruins it for everybody. He’s speed-camera happy Chief Constable of South Yorkshire Police Meredydd Hughes, he’s prone to rant at speeders, and he got caught going 90mph in a 60mph zone. And now he’s lost his license.

Nothing says “Happy Hannukah” more than a traditional… ham? Surprisingly that photo was taken at Balducci’s in New York.
My credit card bills suddenly look insignificant.
Many people wonder about the extent of the subprime lending crisis in the US. I hope this man’s case is not typical! He got a letter from Wachovia Bank telling him he owed over $211 trillion dollars. Now I know that for years banks have been extending too much credit, but that’s just ridiculous!
