The Daily Word in pools, government work and Yayoi Kusama action figures

The Daily Word

"Let's get cool in the pool."

Good enough for government work?

In case y'all missed it, Vice visited well-armed house of worship New Life Baptist Church.

A.V. Club wonders if indie-rock reunions are becoming de rigueur.

Planning to camp /nmfireinfo.com/2013/05/20/this-memorial-day-remember-that-wildfire-prevention-matters/[/url—or BBQ—for Memorial Day? Know before you go.

Diamonds may be forever, but this titanium-LED engagement ring is rad.

    Webgame Wednesday:The Great Gatsby

     
     

    This has been around for a while, but with Baz Luhrmann's 3D version of The Great Gatsby doing gangbusters at the box office, it seems like a fine time to revisit the (faux) NES version of The Great Gatsby. This straight-faced, side-scrolling brawler take on F. Scott Fitzgerald's seminal Jazz Age novel is fun, fitting and proof positive that Luhrmann isn't the only guy around screwing with the classics.

      The Daily Word in shady dentistry, bear bile and riding a Ferris wheel for way too long

      The Daily Word

      New Mexico's at the top of the list! Of worst droughts in the country!

      And pumping water out of the ground just isn't working like it used to.

      "El Dentista," an unlicensed dentist in Santa Fe who performed his "services" out of a van, left a trail of mouth infections and unnecessarily removed teeth in his wake. The New Mexico Department of Health is offering free counseling, blood testing and referrals to his victims. But remember, it could be worse.

      Developers in Oklahoma are resistant to the idea of including tornado shelters in their homes because it costs too much money. Sad trombone.

      Clinton Shepherd of Chicago just finished riding a Ferris wheel for two days straight. "I was thrilled and honored to be able to have all the love and support I did," Shepherd said.

      And it turns out that increasing demand for bear bile (used in a nonsense "home-remedy") is really bad for bears.
