FRIDAY LINKS!



Brain activity's at a minimum today, so let's do links.



Mandelson custard attack probed - BBC News

When I first saw this headline, about 10 different scenarios ran through my head. Classical composer's grave robbed? Heart disease on the rise? An opaque name for a new star system?

Well, it's exactly what it says it is. Though that's still entertaining.



Is Craigslist the world's biggest bordello? - CNET

I'm assuming this article is aimed at anyone who's never heard of the internet.

I like this classy touch, too, when interviewing an e-whore: "For people in her trade, she adds in a thick accent, 'Craigslist is vital.'"

They always have a thick accent, it's true.



WEINER'S NAUGHTY HOTTIE$ - NY Post

I was worried when I didn't catch any classic headline in the Post at first glance. Phew. Where else can a newspaper use a letter that's not in the alphabet?

Greatest first line in journalim: "Talk about the wrong side of foreign aid!" Was anyone even talking about foreign aid?

But seriously, his name is Weiner.
