No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Prayers for those in the Yucatan Peninsula

Hurricane Dean made landfall as an intensifying Category 5 hurricane approximately 3:45 am at the village of Majaual, Mexico, about 175 miles south of Cancun and 45 miles northeast of Chetumal, Mexico. Just before landfall, the Hurricane Hunters measured the pressure at 906 mb (the lowest measured in this hurricane), with estimated sustained winds of 165 mph (the highest of this hurricane). The last hurricane to make landfall as a Category 5 was Andrew in 1992. Dean was the third-most intense hurricane at landfall, behind only Hurricane Gilbert (1988) and the Labor Day Hurricane (1935).

Hopefully, everybody near there evacuated to higher ground.

“24” attempts to jump shark, gets digested

If this exclusive from TV Guide is right, unfunny “commedianne” Janeane Garofalo will become a regular on the 7th season of “24”.

Between that, the Hiliary-stand-in President, the focus on being green and the aborted attempt to take the show to Africa, it’ll make the craptastic compilation season 6 look like Seasons 3 and 4. Please tell me that Jack at least gets to garrote Janeane

Punching in a link to bRight & Early’s First Cup/Overnight News Post to get the attention of B4B regular Jim.

Stupid headline of the day

The headline on this story from the Palm Beach Post may or may not be fixed by the time you read this, so I’ve got a screencap of it in its full glory. Don’t mind the remainder of my desktop; I wanted to get the time in there as well.
