News: Mindreader out-verbiaging other blogs
Sports can produce some curious words and phrases: during today’s Denver Broncos/Arizona Cardinals game, CBS analyst Jim Nance noted that the Broncos were “out-yardaging” the Cardinals.
Afterwards, Nance’s high school English teacher proudly declared that Nance is clearly out-commentarying all other analysts on TV today. Also, he applauded Nance’s linguistic innovation, saying he is “breaking down antiquated barriers between nouns and verbs.”

In searching for Milli Vanilli lyrics (don’t ask), I stumbled across a site called Crap From The Past, the web presence of a radio show featuring pop music from the past. Though some of the site’s content is amusing, it was not the content that caught my eye; it was the site design. It is outstanding.
