Deep Fried Peanut Butter-Covered Brownie Wrapped In Cookie Dough

This Is Why You’re Fat is making me physically ill and sort of ashamed at the same time. Because, some of these things I would eat. And some of them I probably have. I sort of wonder if it’s a midwestern impulse to deep fat fry every food known to man, or if it exists in other areas.

Thanks to the site, however, I seem to have lost my appetite for the moment. Thanks!

This week in the school paper, I got to write a review of Franz Ferdinand’s latest album, Tonight. I liked it quite a lot. I really enjoy writing the reviews.

Today in class we were talking about the future of the newspaper industry, and paper publishing in general. Of course we started talking about the Kindle. The whole concept of a paperless book is somewhat appalling to me. I hate the idea of not being able to lend books to friends, or visit bookstores and browse. I understand the advantages, though, and especially studying journalism, I’m drawn to the idea that something like this could save the newspaper industry. Even if the newspapers were distributed for free, the advertising would be similar to what’s in a paper, and I imagine the target readership would align with the advertisers desires: young, willing to try new things, interest in technology, etc.

My professor said that the cost of a subscription to a newspaper barely covers the cost of the paper itself, so a free electronic paper, or one that costs some sort of minimal amount, does not seem that far-fetched to me. Especially considering the same papers are all free on the internet.
