12/13/07

* I'm completely unprepared for Christmas.
* The cold makes me grumpy. Or maybe I just blame the cold.
* The Spice Girls unveiled a Boeing 747 called Spice One at Heathrow airport today.
* Studies show that babies can develop a taste for alcohol in the womb. (At least rat babies do.)
* Different studies from a New York university show that all-nighters result in lower grades.
* FOX 2 Detroit anchor and reporter Lee Thomas suffers from vitiligo, a disease in which pigment-creating cells are destroyed. Over the years, his formerly-black hands have turned completely white, and he wears make-up to cover light patches around his eyes and mouth.
* Rupert Murdoch. Shareholders approved his $5 billion bid for Dow Jones today, and he addresses the Wall Street Journal newsroom ...standing on cardboard boxes.
* The editor of the Des Moines Register has moderated the most recent Democratic and Republican debates in Iowa. Her name? Carolyn Washburn.
