Crook wrenches Salvation Army kettle from 60-year-old woman with cerebral palsy, escapes into oncoming traffic. Instant justice. The Salvation Army got back its kettle, which contained $53.97. (via Fark)

Remember Mike de la Peña?

Well, he's moving to Los Angeles in a road trip. He and Jason Persampieri visited us yesterday, and today they're in New Orleans. I've been emailing Jason's phone and he's been texting me back, and I've been a sort of remote guide to the cool stuff they can do.

I recommended Café du Monde and gave them the address and phone number, and now they just sent me PHOTOS from Jason's phone! America ganef!

This is a beignet when I'm hungry.

Any questions?

Ooo, I am so jealous -- I'd like to be watching the sun set on New Orleans with a mug of chicory café au lait and a plate of beignets! But I gotta say: the Amish are wrong. Any technology that lets friends rehash jokes from 15 years ago, even when not together, is a Good Thing.
