This Week...
Birth of Day-Day, beginning of Punishment, the end of Showtime and the death of Dirt.
Stretch for details.
STRETCH...
While it doesn't actually exist at this point, the concept for the Mozilla Seabird Open Web phone is pretty damn impressive. Fuck a touchscreen, this thing suggests projecting a usable keyboard onto a flat surface.
You would also be able to dock this thing and use the detachable Bluetooth device/wireless mouse to control the standard desktop that is actually projected from the phone and onto the wall, chalkboard, HUGE woman or whatever large surface you have available.
This is some Star Trek shit right here. Animated demo after the stretch.

Yo, I just realized how much Rick Ross resembles Kamala, a character from the WWF of the '80s and '90s. These dudes either look just alike or William Roberts was a pro wrestler before he became Officer Ricky then Rick Ross. That shit is hilarious.
Peace, WWE
When I hear about someone hitting one of these big, multi-million dollar lotto jackpots, more often than not I get a mental picture of what the lucky bastard looks like: rural, possibly toothless hick-type from the middle of nowhere wearing cowboy boots or rubber fishing waders and drinking moonshine from a Mason jar. Oh, and I ALWAYS envision them being White.
And I'm usually right.
Not this time, though. Garina Fearson, a 34-year-old corrections officer from BK, is the country's latest multimillionaire after hitting last week's $54 million Mega Millions jackpot.
From the NY Post:
"Fearon said she bought the wrong ticket at a Sutter Avenue bodega, where she went to play Powerball, not Mega Millions.
"I only play every six months or so," said Fearon, who has a 16-year-old son and a 14-year-old daughter.
She held on to the ticket all weekend, and didn't think about it until Monday, when she asked a co-worker for a newspaper. She scribbled the winning numbers on the back of an inmate pass as her shift ended.
As she waited for the bus, she made the amazing discovery.
"I was about to fold up the lottery ticket," Fearon said. "Then I saw the numbers, and I started running from one part of the parking lot to the other screaming."
Fearon will take the lump sum cash option, which will pay about $30 mil before taxes.
She says that other than buy a home for her ailing mother in Jamaica, she doesn't really know what she'll do with the money — but she does NOT plan on quitting her job.
Shit, I wouldn't be surprised if she took on eight or nine more jobs. Even with millions of dollars, one job is not nearly enough. Hey mon!
She's better than me, 'cause quitting my job is the FIRST thing I would do. The second thing I'd do is buy a platinum-and-diamond grill and get a replica of the Sistine Chapel tattooed on my back. Then I'd start a record label ("Squeezebox Entertainment") and make accordion-based Hip-Hop. I'd call myself "Polka Flocka Flames" or "Polkaveli."
All jokes aside, congrats to Garina. She's been through some shit in her life and can finally live it up.

Blacklight Tattoos?

So now you can get a tatt that can only be seen under a blacklight. Uhhhh... ok.
Of course Lil' Wayne has a few. Considering that just about all of his flesh is already covered in the traditional, you-can-see-em-in-any-light tattoos, ink that can only be seen in the dark is the natural next step.
Apparently, Ultraviolet (UV) tattoos are the latest trend in the tattoo world, but make sure you do some research before you go get one, as the jury's still out on how safe these things are.
I've done a lil' of the research for you. You can thank me later (No Jimmy Brooks).
Check it out after the stretch.

From TattooHealth.org:
Are UV Tattoos safe?
Safety concerns about UV tattoos remain. The chemicals that compose UV ink are not considered 100% safe due to the number of reported skin irritations. Numerous skin rashes, blisters and infections have been reported with UV ink. In addition, there is some concern that these inks may contribute to cancer.
Do all tattoo artists use UV Inks?
The concern for the health of consumers and questions related to UV ink safety lead many tattoo artists to avoid UV ink. Since there is little or no FDA regulation of tattoo inks in general however, some tattoo artists make their own tattoo inks, including UV. With more awareness and newer formulations, UV ink tattoos are making a small resurgence after an initial decline associated with health risks. Researching UV ink is a great way to learn more about potential risks.
Have any health risks been reported with UV Ink?
The health risks associated with UV ink have been linked to the presence of phosphorous. This chemical is known to cause severe blistering, pain, burning sensations and even skin rashes. Many reports of skin problems have been reported to federal agencies.
Is UV Ink approved by the FDA?
Even though advertisements may suggest that UV ink is approved by the Food and Drug Administration, it is not approved for human use. UV ink is currently only approved for use in agriculture and fishing industries. There are no reliable safety studies which explore the effects of human UV ink use.
Numerous rashes, may contribute to cancer AND not approved for human use? I don't know about you, but I'm goin' with the big FUCK no on the UV tatts.

Maybe not the best EVER, but still pretty cool:
Get it? He's a divorce lawyer whose business card splits...? Not only is it functional, it's dumb clever.
At least I thought so.
(Yeah, I'm a nerd. Fuck you! Don't judge me. LOL.)

I don't know where this came from, but I thought it was funny. It says, "Bitch ain't even COLD in that Poncho!" Can you imagine somebody actually saying that?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is this not the EXACT motion of a two-fisted handjob? Peep:
