I'm sure you knew that Coca-Cola used to contain cocaine, and that doctors once said you should smoke cigarettes to improve health, but did you know that 7-Up used to contain high contents of lithium, a metal/ion that is used as a mood stabilizer to treat mood disorders? Gosh, how crappy for normal people but how fortunate for those bipolar individuals out there who were undiagnosed.
I updated the Heschl's Gyrus section with some Hip that's been going around on the radio lately. I've liked the band since their song Music At Work debuted on Muchmusic it seems like eons ago now, but they were such a strange addition to rock, almost like if you mixed rock with old people and suddenly The Hip emerged from the darkness as a result. Watch his eyes, they're like closed for the majority of the video. Sight's overrated anyways.

Okay, so during Reading Week, we played this fantastic game called Telephone Pictionary. The game goes like this: You get a stack of small pieces of paper, one sheet for every team that's playing (I.e. If you have eight teams, your stack would have eight pieces of paper). Each time then makes up a phrase, anything you want. When you're done, each team passes the whole stack to the next team, who reads the phrase, puts it to the back of the stack, and then draws what was written. When they're done, the stack is then passed onto the next team, who then sees what was drawn, and then in turn moves that picture to the back and writes a phrase based on the picture.
Naturally, you can see how the phrase the game started with gets distorted, like in the game telephone. You know, telephone + pictionary = telephone pictionary. GENIUS. So now that you know, let's show you some examples of the hilarity that ensued:
"Seals Visiting Paris"
"I like donkeys"
"Albert loves Jen Bong
"dirty indian baby
"I'm all over your face
"Static" - I love this one.
"Geekbots" - Start from the top right. I love robots. But seriously, best ending ever.
"Gray rhinos"
"Hips don't lie"
And for my personal favorite:
"Bunny doing leapfrog"
