I had no idea there was a World Yo-Yo Contest but there is and the winner this year was Jensen Kimmitt with this doozy:

It’s pretty amazing what these folks can do with a yo-yo.

Conan O’Brien > Jay Leno, NBC = F’d

Between Conan O’Brien and Jay Leno, I liked O’Brien’s style of irreverent humor a lot more. I guess it’s a generational thing but Leno’s jokes just weren’t funny to me. So when NBC handed the reigns of the Tonight Show over to O’Brien, I thought it was great. To be honest, I rarely watch the late night shows because I’m usually asleep by them (or watching Sportscenter before I go to sleep) but I was still a little annoyed when NBC took the show away. They were claiming that O’Brien’s ratings numbers were worse than Leno and that they were giving the show back to Leno. Ultimately, Conan got paid big time but it was still a crappy situation that bordered on ludicrous.

Well, it turns out that Leno’s ratings aren’t that great after all.

The reality is that you can get your share of entertainment whenever you want, such as when you’re trapped at work. You don’t have to watch an hour long show for a few moments of potential humor at 11:30 if you know you can just get the awesome highlights tomorrow.

Chicago Cops Get Segways

As if the stereotype of the fat cop with a mouthful of donuts chasing a perp isn’t already deeply ingrained in American culture… now cops in Chicago are getting segways. For half a million you can get a hundred segways, with parts, and it seems like the trend is growing since the article claims that cops are a key market for the scooter.

Honestly, I think it’s a pretty good idea because it does let the police stand taller and cover more ground but I think it’d be funny to see a police officer on something I usually associate with nerds, i.e. myself.
