I dated this girl once, (a long long time ago, waaaay before Mrs. Field) who wanted to be a school teacher for all the right reasons. Years later when I saw her I asked her if she was teaching, and do you know what she told me? "Field, are you crazy? I want to live past my 40th birthday. These kids ...

Thrilla in vanilla: Michael Jackson's press conference announcing some London shows he'll soon cancel was not exactly a thriller. See the video Scanner Emily shared yesterday. Dr. Sanjay Gupta has decided to turn down a job in the Obama Administration. Hero of the day: the nurse who bought a...

Penn and Teller's Bullshit! on PETA. Great video:...
