Weekend links - Post apocolyptic wasteland edition

  • VideoETA: Everyone and their brother may be talking about The Dark Knight (and rightfully so) but work is already well under way on Christian Bale’s next blockbuster… Terminator 4. A few set photos have already been leaked. I have to wonder how 7 Eleven feels about one of their stores showing up in Post-Judgement Day California.
  • Sun-Crimes: A criminal genius in Waukesha faked a heart attack to get out of paying a cab fare. It worked too. Like many evil minds though, he got greedy and tried it again, when he faked a heart attack to get out of paying for a steak at Applebees. He was caught when a doctor at the hospital recognized him from the last time. Redd Foxx was unavailable for comment.
  • FoxNews: The US has secretly moved more than 500 tons of yellowcake uranium out of Iraq. It was leftover from Saddam Hussein’s nuclear weapons program, and both the US and the new Iraqi government we worried about the radioactive material making it into the hands of insurgents and eventually Iran. Wait a minute… I thought Saddam Hussein was never working on WMD’s, and that was just something George W. Bush made up.
  • Discovery: A short circuit may cause one of the ovens on the Phoenix lander to go toes up. The problem happened back in June, and the pocket protector-clad scientists at NASA are worried that the next time they fire up the world’s most expensive Easy-Bake oven, it could be the last.
