I am not making any jokes here. This is a melancholy story.

A two headed boy named Kiron was born a couple days ago in Bangladesh. Sadly, the young man passed away after developing a fever and breathing difficulties.

Kiron weighed 12 lbs 1 oz and was born by Cesarean section. Though he was able to eat through both mouths, he only had one stomach.

The Telegraph reports:

The boy had been placed under police protection when more than 150,000 people gathered outside the clinic in the town of Keshobpur.

After Kiron had died, local press reported that thousands spontaneously donated money to the grieving family.

Sleep warm, young man.

Entertainment Weekly recently had an online poll for the Funniest Films of the Past 25 Years.

The winner? Ghostbusters. Damn right Ghostbusters.

I also agree with Vacation at number two. Beverly Hills Cop at three seems high. Good to see Spinal Tap and the immortal Big Lebowski as respected as they should be. I have no idea how Clerks made the final 25. A terrible, terrible movie.

Here's the Top 10

1. Ghostbusters
2. National Lampoon's Vacation
3. Beverly Hills Cop
4. This Is Spinal Tap
5. Office Space
6. South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut
7. There's Something About Mary
8. The Big Lebowski
9. A Fish Called Wanda
10. Dazed & Confused

Don't cross the streams...

Beat boxing... it's all about the ingredients.

Another new feature added last night - if you're a registered member, and you click on "edit profile", you can now add a short (or long - whatever) bio of yourself, that'll proudly display whenever anyone clicks your profile icon. To provide you all with an incentive, we're going to give a YBNBY t shirt to the girl with the biggest tits the wittiest short bio.

If you want to enter, write you bio on your profile, and then post a comment below. After the holiday weekend, we'll put it to a vote.

As the Balloonfest rolls on...

There are two cardinal rules for political conventions. Rules that cannot be broken. Under any circumstances. The Dems broke two of them the other night.

1. Don't be boring and absolutely stink out the joint - What in the name of Nikola Telsa was Virginia Governor Mark Warner prattling on about? Car phones and cell phones and the ground floor of car phones and cell phones ... Is he done yet? Bloody hell. We haven't seen a speechwriting staff update their resumes this quickly since Howard Dean imploded in 2004.

B. Don't wear a bolo tie - That's right. Montana Governor Brain Schweitzer wore a bolo tie. Now I imagine this was a calculated decision among his staff to appear "folksy." Bad move. I don't know what Schweitzer was talking about. All I kept hearing was Wilford Brimley talk about having the "diabeetus."

We can't take anyone seriously that wears a bolo tie. Governor, you might as well have been wearing MC Hammer pants.

Goodnight and good luck.

It's a while since I've posted any online games to infuriate and frustrate you, so I think it's about time.

• Fantastic Contraption is probably the best of the three. This sucked up many hours in airports recently.I got up to level 14 then stalled. Most of these can be solved with what i came to think of as a 'semi-rigid centipede'.
• Coign of Vantage is a 3D spatial alignment game, that's probably much more fun as a drunken group activity
• Boombot takes little getting used to. Use the bombs to blow the lil guy into the portal. MUCH harder than it looks, as you'll find out in - oh - probably level 2.

My heart and my stock portfolio dropped a bit after Bloomberg published Apple co-founder and current CEO, Steve Jobs', obituary. Steve Jobs is not dead. It was a mistake on Bloomberg's part, and one that has me wondering how many non-dead people's obituaries are out there.

Together they make one meaningless commercial.
