  • ↵↵The severed head of an investigator in Mexico was delivered to police. There’s your monthly reminder that Mexico is one of the scariest places on earth right now.

  • ↵On a lighter note, Zach Galifianakis in a swimsuit calender.
  • ↵Faces of Oprah is really getting good.

↵↵And finally, ESPN’s Brett Favre 500-TD graphic was just ridiculous last night:
