I am a fanatical Giants fan. My father got me watching the games with him at the beginning of the 86-87 season and by the time they got to the Super Bowl that year I was already hooked for life. Whenever they reach the big game we always throw a huge party, so we’re already hard at work making plans. If you had told me a month ago that the Giants weren’t really a bunch of bums, I would have planned ahead and ordered up some of these absurd gadgets to make the party even more fun.

A 7-year old girl Sarasota, Florida is being hailed as a hero for quick thinking that saved her mother’s life. When Rita Lawlor was unable to wake her mother, Virginia, she slapped her with a slice of pizza. When that didn’t work, she called 911.
She was waiting on the lawn when paramedics arrived while calmly speaking with a dispatcher on the phone. Thankfully, Rita’s mother was revived and is doing well. For her part, Rita was awarded a medal by her local fire department.
What would have been really interesting is if the pizza revived her on its own—as if it was some sort of greasy, delicious miracle drug. Then there would always be an excuse to keep it close by. Check out the associated news report after the break.

After a tumultuous 2011, Taco Bell is looking to stimulate growth in 2012 and beyond with the addition of a new breakfast menu dubbed “First Meal”.
The menu will consist of 11 “classic American” options—including breakfast burritos, Cinnabon delights, Johnsonville Sausage, egg wraps, Seattle’s best coffee, Tropicana orange juice and more.
The First Meal menu will begin rolling out next week in 750 locations in 10 Western states—including California. The Eastern part of the US is expected to follow suit in 2013 with a full nationwide rollout concluding by the start of 2014.
So, if you love Taco Bell that’s something to be excited about—but we’re more concerned with the nationwide release of the genius Doritos Locos taco.
