What, another linkfest? Yes, another linkfest.
1. Major scoop: Supreme Court justices might be influenced by their clerks.
2. Baltimore efficiency: "Members of Baltimore's Board of Fire Commissioners will receive their final paychecks at the end of this month, after a recent discovery by the city's Finance Department that the members have not been eligible for a city stipend since 1996."
3. New doll: "I made a stinky."
4. Try it with a photo of Wolf Blitzer.
5. Talk about pollination!
6. Rockville in the news: If you get a speed camera ticket, you might be the victim of a prank; "students duplicate the license plates by printing plate numbers on glossy photo paper, using fonts from certain websites that 'mimic' those on Maryland license plates. They tape the duplicate plate over the existing plate on the back of their car and purposefully speed through a speed camera, the parent said. The victim then receives a citation in the mail days later."

UPDATE: 7. The Weekly Standard's parody imitates Pillage Idiot. ("**** them!")

The gift season
Now that we're past Black Friday, death toll approximately one, it's time to focus on gifts for Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or whatever holiday the wiccans are currently planning for.
Dave Barry has his annual gift guide, which I find rather disappointing this year. Judge for yourself.
It's hard to believe Dave Barry left this off his list: Talking TP.
Even NBC mentioned it on the Today Show, along with a few other novelty gifts. You can see the video here.

Tuesday night mini-linkfest
A short mini-linkfest tonight.
1. Headline of the day: "Fake penis under attack for staying limp." (via BOTWT)
2. Quotation of the day from the same link: "It's easy to think that it's pretty strange to approve prosthetics that can't get erect, because that is after all what penises do - get erections."
3. How to hide your booze at the stadium.
4. Speaking of booze, here's a beer that uses gene technology and might extend your life.
5. And on the subject of inventions, here's a device for the kid in all of us: a gizmo that makes and throws snowballs.
