If you’re someone who’s into taking photos or just someone who enjoys looking at neat pictures (like me), than heads up on this one. The Kodak folks announced this week that they will no longer be offering their Kodachrome film product. Formerly the staple of their film empire… the move was made because they said that it no longer accounted for even one percent of their sales. It also reflects the growing prevalence of digital cameras.

A super cool way to say farewell to this old friend / film is to take a look at a slideshow of some of the best pictures ever taken with the product.

We have been told for year’s that there is indeed no wrong way to eat a Reese’s. Today we find out that was apparently false.

Police in Florida were able to catch youthful criminals that vandalized a home… by following the trail of peanut butter cup wrappers they left… all the way to their abode. Yikes. The candy consuming folks are now under arrest.

Greetings and good day!

There are a bunch of wise folk now saying you don’t need to idle your car before using it. I’m unsure that these people know what they’re talking about.

In Indiana, a school is being sued by a parent for allowing a bible study to operate in its parking lot. The plaintiff says her child’s first ammendment rights are being compromised by the bible study. Oofta.

If you’re casting about for gasoline before you depart for work today, you may want to swing by BP on W 41st and W Empire Place. Gasbuddy.com says they have the cheapest petroleum post-product in the metro at 1.87 for one gallon of regular unleaded.

Speaking of saving for fuel, the brainy folk at Toyata have made a Prius model that now gets 65 miles on one gallon of gas!

Have a tremendous Wednesday evening.
