SILA : 2

Sports
Vibram Lawsuit - It looks silly to me. Although if you agree that you bought some due to false advertising that somehow a shoe could make you a better person, they are trying for a class action suit.

Triathlon
Lance Armstrong being passed at Galveston 70.3. This was the topic of some discussion this week. It's sort of interesting to think about what I might be thinking in both of those guy's shoes.


Leadman Epic 125 in Las Vegas - They say this race is run focused, but it seems bike focused. I've always wondered why the sports aren't more evenly split from a time perspective. Probably because the swim would destroy people.



Misc
Mt. Dew & Doritos Cupcakes - From a place in Orlando - but the Discovery site has recipe suggestions on how to maybe actually make them.


Yes please, and my birthday is coming up if that's any incentive.

Flying car - it seems like this comes up every once and a while. This video doesn't touch on the requirements of flying said car. The website doesn't either though I think it's safe to say you need to be a pilot and it's probably not super easy to fly.

Opower - their goal is to use people's own competitive nature to try to get people to lower their power consumption. Would turn off some lights if you knew all your friends were using less power than you? I might, probably not our 3 year old though :)
