  1. Car Pushed By Truck at 60 MPH

    I saw a stunning video this morning of a car that was somehow pushed by a truck down a UK highway at 60 miles per hour. The footage was shot by a passenger in a neighboring car. According to the Guardian, the woman driving the car suffered no injuries. She says she hesitated using her cell phone to call emergency services because it wasn’t a handheld device but says she figured it was ok because she wasn’t really “driving” her car. VIDEO

  2. Free Food Day

    Today is not the day to start a spring diet. Both Ben and Jerry’s and Starbucks are offering up treats for free says the Consumerist. With the purchase of a “handcrafted, brewed or iced beverage,” you can get a free pastry at Starbucks before 10:30 am.

    Sometimes you’ve got to risk the “you JUST saw that” eyeroll for the sake of comedy. The Houston Chronicle alerted me to a Funny or Die video that I missed last week.

Fortunately, I found a smart explanation on talkingpointsmemo.com this morning.

  6. “New Dork” State of Mind

    Jay-Z’s “Empire State of Mind” has spawned tons of spoofs. But none quite as dorky as this one. And it seems like that was the point.  It’s a send up of the world we now live in where, as the lyrics state, “the geeks are now damn cool.” Produced by the Pantless Knights, a group that specializes in viral videos, it’s been around for a few days but still totally worthy of an afternoon chuckle. Especially if you are a card carrying member of the “new dorks” club.

  7. Pat’s Restaurant and Twitter Picks

    The New York City restaurant review site Immaculate Infatuation asked me for restaurant picks in five categories. Among my favorites: the “serious take-out operation” at Chirping Chicken and the excellent Bacon Spinach Tomato pizza at Freddie & Peppers.
