- Currently playing: a game where you are a little piggie on a waterski and you collect money, pay bills, buy the occasional luxury and sometimes get smacked by a massively expensive tsunami of taxes or dental work. (Hope you had something in savings!) Check out DebtSki here.

-Governor Gono is in ur bank account, lookin for ur hard currenciez. I don’t need to expound on this one, it speaks for itself.

- MainStreet’s “5 Dumbest Things On Wall Street” this week include the astonishing revelation by Kellogg that Mini-Wheats don’t make you more attentive, Apple’s shaken-baby app and others.

-Speaking of the shaken baby app, the SubGenius have been making games like that and much worse since 1996 or so – for the Mac platform, no less. Easier to do when you don’t care about bad PR. Link not for the squeamish.

-Tara Reid’s boob jobs as metaphor for our falsely expanding and inevitably contracting economy.

-AdFreak dissects the new KFC ads. Meanwhile, Popeyes causes food riots in several cities (thx Leslie):

- This headline brought to you by the “LOL WUT” department.

- Is Ken Lewis the only one who’s been pushed around by Fed and Treasury schoolyard bullies?

- Finally, if you don’t have enough to worry about regarding bank stress tests, swine flu, your job and mortgage and whether or not Timmay and Bennay will ever pull a Governor Gono on your private accounts, WSJ invites you to ruminate on whether or not Paris Hilton has defiled prosecco.
