Heart Attack Grill- Killer Burgers and Lard Fries


The Heart Attack grill recently was featured in a dateline bit. They got a news flash because they were the subject of a complaint that the waitresses were "impersonating Nurses" and "demeaning the nursing profession". The HAG offers sexy nurses as waitstaff, and the single, double or triple bypass burgers with fries deep fried in PURE LARD! Now that's cause for news.
Gasp!
Dateline- flatline get it?

Offworld: Boing Boing getting bloated?



Boing Boing is adding another subtopic to it's amazingly addictive blog. Called offworld, for gamers. As "progress happens" and a site gets bigger it needs to divide itself up to keep everyone happy. RE: Microsoft bloat, tries to be everything to everyone with every possible notion of what they might try to do with a PC. It is pretty clear from the term itself "PC Bloat"
I enjoy BoingBoing's main blog and the Gadgets too, though I sometimes wish I could get a digest with it all in one place. Boing Boing TV I find less captivating, perhaps because I can't set the pace, you become a passive observer, ala TV. 
 I'm not a gamer, or I might be ecstatic about a gamer subsection just for Video games.
Adding subsections with overlapping content IS an excellent way to serve more ads, because , Hey, we all gotta eat.
