We’re quite amazed that baseball is going to formulate a super-special commission to investigate whether Barry Bonds and other current/former players ever used steroids.
In other news, the U.S. government just announced plans to organize a blue-ribbon panel to investigate whether there were Nazis in World War II-era Germany.

Currently one of the most-viewed videos at YouTube: What if Microsoft redesigned the iPod packaging?
Because a good parody is almost always closer to the truth than, well, pretty much anything. It’ll be interesting to see how this compares to Microsoft’s Origami fantasy.

Seriously, we question the decision to hand off the midday Olympics coverage to MSNBC. Mainly because it results in the curious spectacle of alleged pundit Tucker Carlson anchoring what’s essentially sports news (even saying things like [*snicker*] “Spoiler alert!”). That’s just silly. The next thing you know, Anderson Cooper will be hosting a reality show!

Answer: Self-spam with bad puns.
New content on the main TDT site:
(1) Bush’s SCOTUS nomination is going to the dog. (Trust us, the actual story is even more low-brow than that).
(2) Celebrate the New Dark Age with us! (Calculate the irony of us building an article on that with someone you can trust. Then name the band we ripped off).

So a Japanese Man Sets Record in Pi Recitation at 83,431 decimal places. Wow.
The best we can do is 53 places, but that’s as far as we got while bored in 9th grade Geometry class. But at least we can say that we’re officially three orders of magnitude less geeky than some people.
That ought to impress people.

Are you exceptionally geeky? Like logic puzzles? Feel the need to spend hours upon hours fiddling with numbers and empty spaces? Feel a competitive desire to do so faster than other logic-puzzling geeks?
Well then, look no further: SuDoku
You’ll be sorry. Or addicted. One of the two.
