AcipHex Aug 25, 2009
AcipHex is a medication for acid reflux.  It's also the worst product name in the history of the universe.  Go ahead, say it out loud.  AcipHex.  Acifex.  Assifex.  Ass Effects.  There it is. 

And as if this didn't already seem like a joke, here are some images from the product's website:

Sometimes I think someone out there is doing this stuff specifically for me.  Thank you, whoever you are. #products
Planet Earth in the theater Aug 25, 2009
I watch me some Discovery Channel, and as such, I see a lot of commercials for Planet Earth, both the re-aired episodes and the DVD collections.  Despite my aversion to the cost of movie theaters, I would gladly pay $10 to see Planet Earth on the big screen. 

Update:  I really should've seen Disney's Earth while it was in theaters.  It's exactly what I'm looking for, since it included a bunch of footage from Planet Earth. #entertainment
Cowboys' new stadium Aug 25, 2009
The Dallas Cowboys' brand new football stadium, which premiered on primetime TV this past Friday night, was so poorly planned that the giant screens hanging from the ceiling actually get in the way of what's taking place on the field.  Or as one website put it, "[the] Cowboys' massive new stadium [is] not big enough to play football in."  It would've taken an idiot half a second to figure out that a punt can easily hit the screen, but apparently the $1.2 billion building budget could only afford less-than-idiots.  Thankfully, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is taking the issue seriously:  "You don't need to move [the screen]. You gotta be trying to [hit] it."  America's team my ass. 

On a related note, in between plays, host Curt Menefee showed that the giant screen provided an amazing view of the game for pretty much every seat in the stadium.  I couldn't help but notice it's about the exact same view of the game I receive while sitting on the couch in my living room.  Funny how that works. #sports
