The Best Job in the World

Perhaps some of you have been following Tourism Queensland's intense campaign for the Best Job in the World. 

Basically, they're going to pay someone approximately $100 000 to become an "island caretaker" on the beautiful Hamilton Island in Queensland, Australia. 

The finalists for the job will fly to Australia tomorrow to be interviewed for the job in-person.

This is Why You're Fat

"This is Why You're Fat" is a website that collects pictures of the shock-inducing, disgusting concoctions that people are putting in their mouths these days. Sometimes it gets horrifyingly gross. If anything will make you want to eat healthy - it's this.

(Though, I did eat 2 big nasty cheeseburgers for supper today... I'm sure my heart hates me.) Hey, heart! Trust me! It could be worst buddy....
