Suicidal Antidepressants, My24Space, #1 Autographer, Yogi Gwennie, Skinny Mirrors, and Are Viruses the New Apes?
1. Hipster of the drug industry alert! There's nothing more ironic than the most popular antidepressant's inducing suicidal tendencies in probably the most healthy age group, 18-30. And so, the PBR trophy goes to.... Paxil. That's what happens when your pill isn't represented by the cutest animated mascot. (Food Consumer)
2. MySpace might no longer be known as the music lover's Friendster as it branches out to selling episodes of 24 next week. Episodes from seasons 1-5 will be selling for $1.99 a piece, with two comped episodes courtesy of Burger King. Murdoch's sponsoring Clinton, and now this hip move into iTunes' territory? Apocalyptic horsee, is that you? (Reuters)
3. The results from Autograph Collector are in and the best autographer is none other than Johnny Depp, who even signs when struggling with his luggage at the airport. George Clooney kerrigans it out, by dishing jokes with his prized hancock. Lowest of all, below even Russell Crowe and Sean Penn, is the hotheaded Cameron Diaz who lectures fans on the inanity of obtaining her autograph instead of simply telling them no. AKA the Diaz experience. (People)
4. Patrick Forterre, a scientist at the University of Paris-Sud, has been recently publishing his exciting and controversial theory in many-a-journals -- that "viruses bequeathed DNA to all living things." Scientist, I'm not, but essentially the theory is that RNA (the simpler, single stranded DNA) organisms begot a smarter, self-replicating and protein-generating version known as the virus, which modified its RNA to DNA to throw off its host from destroying its very being. Then the DNA viruses became the host's bitch, lost the genes that mapped its way out of the host and its ability to make its own protein shell, basically losing its identity and became "naked DNA," which meant it was only a DNA replicating machine. And so, say hi to your exponentially great-uncle Ebola... but don't kiss it. Y'know, because of the slight hemorrhaging. (Science)
5. For $56,000, you could be sunrising, downward dogging, and lion roaring with the best of Gwenyth Paltrow...or simply, Gwenyth Paltrow. For the benefit of Prince Charles' charities, Gwennie put herself out there as a Yoga teacher to the highest bidder. (Page 6)
6. Emails to Gawker are confirming that Vogue mama Conde Nast has skinny mirrors in the 4th floor of its building, which is also where its gorrrrrgeous cafeteria resides. So take that High Fashion critics. The Nastees want to ward off any after-meals bulimia. Now, if there were fat mirrors elsewhere...

Referring to your item on celebrity autographs (5/15/06): how exactly does one "kerrigan" an autograph?
Dear RGB,
You can kerrigan anything as long as you come in second.
Example:
Jimmy totally messed up the last shot, kerriganing his team in the finals. He was not going to have a fun time in the parking lot.
