In an ominous sign of things to come for the country, a local Mormon church has spontaneously burst into flames one day after Mitt Romney announced his bid for the presidency.  In other Romney news, he’s made his second misstep of his fledgling campaign (the first was announcing) by kicking off his candidacy on the museum steps of that old Jew-hater himself, Henry Ford.  Either Romney or America is totally screwed, not sure which just yet.

Everybody loves a snarky foodie…

You’ve gotta hand it to Anthony Bourdain for his smackdown of some of the heavy hitters of Food Network, especially the total decimation of Sandra Lee:

I would likely be arrested if I suggested on television that any children watching should promptly go to a wooded area with a gun and harm themselves. What’s the difference between that and Sandra suggesting we fill our mouths with Ritz Crackers, jam a can of Cheez Wiz in after and press hard?

True dat, but she can make one fierce tablescape (which she just can’t wait for you to see, by the way), so there is some there there.  Well, not in a food sort of way, but you know what I mean.
