Ok, if you’ll remember way back to yesterday (I know it’s hard) when I said that you shouldn’t be hanging out with cuttlefish embryos cause they’d develop a taste for you? Well, something worse has happened, some sharks have developed a taste for you, I mean, sure post embryo stage so not quite as bad ass, but on the other hand, they’re sharks. (via) Two recent attacks in Acapulco have some thinking that the sharks have developed a taste for humans because the mob there’s dumped hundreds of corpses along those beaches. There’s so much wrong with that, I just have to stop.

Perhaps if you were swimming in that ocean with Northrop’s new psychic spidey-sense having binoculars you might have a chance to get away. (via) It uses some kind of brain scanning blah blah blah and it will identify threats before the wearer is sort of actively conscious of them, or something. What I found weird about the article, though, is that they used the word “warfighter” instead of soldier. Huh, Wikipedia has the 411. Hahah, it’s like a politically correct term – it’s military service and branch neutral! That’s like, more wicked than anything.

Well, less wicked than the fact that Warren Buffet just bet some hedge fund guy $1,000,000 that hedgefunds won’t beat the return of the S&P 500 from an investors perspective. I mean, when you’re those guys that’s like a cheap bet, I’d guess. It’s basically pitting a Vanguard index fund against a stable of 5 funds chosen by the hedge fund guys. Fight! The winnings itself will go to charity. It’s kind of like the opposite of the bet in Trading Places. Although you gotta admit, Buffett does look kinda like he’d fit right in with Randolph and Mortimer, no?
