You Fat Elephant! No, Really...

Anchorage, Alaska - Yes, they have an Afican Elephant in the Alaska Zoo. No one really knows why. Her name is Maggie. She throws on a thousand or so pounds come wintertime to give her an extra layer of warmth from the frigid Arctic, but this is starting to worry zookeepers, who have started her on a weight-loss program, which now includes a treadmill.

Wedding Bells Are Ringing...



New York - or LA, depending on which news source reported first - relates the happy nuptials of Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher. Acutally, it was in Beverly Hills. Not that it matters. Attempts to get the recently wedded couple to record a video mail have failed heretofore, but yours truly has created a video mail archiving the debatably newsworthy event. As if you haven't heard already.

Have You Seen Me?

A man came home to find his dog missing from his fenced back yard. As a dog owner myself, my heart went out to him. What would any dog owner do? All he can, of course - including putting an ad in the local picayune. While unfortunately the man's dog never did turn up, what did ensue led to some rather hilarious findings, involving skate parks, doggie doo, and never-before-recognized-but-definitely-important job descriptions.

SightSpeed Friday News Round Up


After deciding that some news is better than no news, which is better than bad news, we thought that a little snippet of world-trolled newsbytes would be an interesting feature on an otherwise hardly-kept-up-blog. Hey, what can I say, Brad's the creative one, that's why he's the CEO. So after finishing the Big Breakfast Sammich from Berkeley's own Home Cafe (found here), we took our first take. Then second. Then third...FULL STORY FOUND HERE.
