Getting Started - 12/08/08


  • The 67th Anniversary of Pearl Harbor happened over the weekend. Go ask 10 random people where Pearl Harbor is and report back with the results. (The Honolulu Advertiser).
  • Chalk one up for the Dutch! A crew of 19 repelled an attack from the Somali pirates over the weekend. Is it the mayonnaise on the fries? (Bloomberg.com).
  • The Australian Film Institute posthumously gave its top award to Heath Ledger for his performance in the Dark Knight. He was up against Russell Crowe, ("American Gangster"), Eric Bana, ("The Other Boleyn Girl"), and Jack Thompson, ("Leatherheads"). No surprise here. (LA Times).
  • Several computers got together over the weekend and decided who will play in the BCS National Championship Game. They decided the only two undefeated teams should not play each other, and that neither one should play for the title. (Daily Comet.com).
