KRAD's Inaccurate Guide to Life

From karnythia: "This is my son's cousin. She may have run away, but we don't know that for sure. The police are treating her as a runaway so there is no Amber Alert. If you have seen this girl and have any information please contact the Chicago police at 312-747-8274. Or if you are just willing to spread the link, please feel free to do so. She's a kid and we're worried about her. Thank you."

EDITED TO ADD: She's been found!

AP and TMZ have reported that Brittany Murphy has died in an L.A. hospital after LAFD responded to a call Sunday morning. She was only 32.

No way this turns out well.............

And so the Shortest Day came and the year died
And everywhere down the centuries of the snow-white world
Came people singing, dancing,
To drive the dark away.
They lighted candles in the winter trees;
They hung their homes with evergreen;
They burned beseeching fires all night long
To keep the year alive.
And when the new year's sunshine blazed awake
They shouted, revelling.
Through all the frosty ages you can hear them
Echoing behind us - listen!
All the long echoes, sing the same delight,
This Shortest Day,
As promise wakens in the sleeping land:
They carol, feast, give thanks,
And dearly love their friends,
And hope for peace.
And now so do we, here, now,
This year and every year.

Joyous solstice, everyone!

Apparently, you could see the blizzard that hit the east coast from orbit..............

A hilarious video that represents something pretty much every martial arts instructor has had to endure at least once.
