Man Changes His Name To “Captain Awesome” and Uses Smiley Face With Arrows As Signature
via Comcast. An Oregan man recently changed his name from Douglas Allen Smith Jr. to “Captain Awesome” last month after being inspired by a character from the NBC television show, Chuck.
The former Mr. Smith says he faced a Lane County judge who questioned his seriousness. The judge that granted the request made him swear he wasn’t changing his name for fraudulent reasons.
Awesome says that judge also allowed him to sign his name as a right arrow, a smiley face and a left arrow.
He says his bank, however, has refused to accept the signature because it could be forged too easily.

Gravity Defying Goats Scale Dam In Italy
via NationalGeographic. This is pretty amazing… These goats are positioned along the nearly vertical 160-foot-tall Cingino Dam in Italy. The goats are attracted by the salt crusted stones because grazing animals don’t get enough of the mineral in their vegetarian diets. More photos and video after the break.
“He is wedged up this sheer vertical cliff face, almost doing a yoga pose with four hooves splayed out there,” he said. “It’s the same concept [with the Italian goats]—these animals can overcome what looks like impossible topography to get what they want.” – Jeff Opperman

The Top Story in the AJC this Morning!?!@
My friend Prasanth just e-mailed me the top headline in the AJC this morning. It reads “Buckhead CVS Robbed For Syrup Used in Purple Drank.” Apparently two men robbed the Buckhead CVS and “only took bottles of a codeine-like syrup used to make a drink popularized in rap and hip-hop lyrics.” The robbers took approximately 7 to 10 (12oz) bottles of syrup.
Other names for purple drank include sizzurp, lean, syrup, drank, barre, purple jelly and Texas tea. The drink is made by combining the syrup with soft drinks such as Sprite or Mountain Dew and pieces of Jolly Rancher candy.
Only In Japan: Children Fight A Zombie In Their House
via TokyoMango. Haha… WTF?! Here is a television show in Japan where the TV crew plays a prank on three children who believe they must fight off a zombie entering their home. Make sure to read the subtitles to understand what’s going on.
[I]t’s funny that the zombie writes them a letter to tell them he’s coming over, and then takes off his shoes before entering the house. Very polite. My favorite part is when the older boy starts crying and then tells the reporter off for not doing anything to help them. The weapons they use are great too: Tabasco, plastic wrap, a toy dinosaur…
