Overwhelmed and Looking for Hot Sauce

This week has been batshitcrazy, not just in my own little world but in the big, big world. The Olympics started off with an unprecedented ceremony in China while Georgia, Russia and John Edwards decided to drop some bombs during our distraction. The POTUS campaigns seem to be in a weird place, building up the tension for their Veep selections. And then came the news that Mr. Isaac Hays and Mr. Bernie Mac have left the big, big world for presumably something much better.

Which brings me to a needed mental break courtesy of Mr. Bernie Mac and Mr. Issac Hays. Can you dig it?

From the Department of Stupid iPhone Applications

For $1.99: Use this application to receive a real-time update of the US National Threat Level from the Department of Homeland Security.

Fig. 1 National Threat Advisory on the iTunes App Store (larger version)

It’s about as useful as the $999.00 I Am Rich iPhone application which does nothing more than display a shiny red gem on your phone.
