More miscellaneous links that I’ve been collecting but don’t really justify getting the full post treatment:
Jolt Cola is probably going out of business. They tried to cash in on the “energy drink” fad, but that didn’t work out and now the company is bankrupt. It’s possible that some other beverage company might still buy out the trademark and produce its own “Jolt” product, but for now it’s a goner.
This Daily Mail article reports on a poll of teachers in the U.K.. The teachers were asked to rank first names as a predictor of whether or not a child would be a well-behaved or badly-behaved pupil. Number Two on the list of “Well-Behaved Girls”: Charlotte. Ahem.
From the Canadian Ministry of “Duh!”: Men buy fast cars to boost their testosterone levels. The related study about the inverse ratio of pickup-truck-size to penis-size is expected soon, but I think you can probably guess at the results.
UR Doin’ It Rong: this was an actual promotion
