Fact-checking The Rise of the Planet of the Apes: How many apes live in San Francisco? http://t.co/y5wgWBi
And just how did James Franco become the government's top ape man? He hasn't even been to veterinary school. Which is saying something, considering he's done every other postgraduate program offered by a major university.
Human-like robot comes alive aboard space station http://t.co/YZoTVIZ
On the whole, the crew would have rather been on the ground with the earthquake.
A Roadie With a Whisk http://t.co/z9pr51U
This roadie is impressive, what with his whisk, but it's worth noting that very few people on your average rock tour would be in a position to know. He could say a high drier or a plate of hummus is a whisk and the band would probably believe him. We'd probably believe him. We don't have all the answers, especially when it comes to what is and is not a whisk.
