injaynesworld it's the "Sunday Recap..."

Breast Milk Ice Cream – yum or dumb…?

Ice cream made from human breast milk is a big hit at a shop in London.   Served in a martini glass under the name “Baby Gaga,” the frozen treat is made by mixing the mother’s milk with Madagascan vanilla pods and lemon zest and then churning it into ice cream.  And at $23 per serving, it sold out in one day.

The owner of the company says the product is “organic, free-range, and totally natural,” and really – who wouldn’t prefer their ice cream to come from free-range women as opposed to those kept in cages.  

Fifteen lactating ladies were paid to hook up to the pump and one had this to say:  “For me it's a recession beater.   What's the harm in using my assets for a bit of extra cash?" 

I have to say I hope this catches on here in the States big time.  The way Republicans are cutting social programs for needy families, we could see breast pumps popping up at grocery checkout counters right next to the debit card machine.

This week President Obama also announced that DOMA, the “Defense of Marriage Act” which bans federal recognition of same-sex marriages, is unconstitutional and that his justice department will no longer be defending it in court. 

Before anyone gets too excited, however, the administration will continue to enforce the onerous law until Congress votes to repeal (when donkeys fly) or the Supremes render a definitive verdict on its constitutionality.  

But this didn’t stop Fox pundit Monica Crowley from running her mouth with all kinds of righteous outrage, accusing the Prez of being a dictator and referring to him as “Mubarek” Obama.

Dip.  Shit.

Guns for everyone!

Texas is voting to allow guns to be carried on its college campuses because “…the best defense against a gunman is students who can shoot back.” 



Oh, yeah.  That's well thought out.  

This kind of gives the term “attack on education” a whole new meaning.

Birds of a feather...

For those of you rooting for the lovely Ms. Portman to take home the Oscar tonight for her performance in “The Black Swan,” here’s a shot of her as a youngster showing her affinity for the feathered among us even back then. 


Whose your favorite to take home the statue?

Finally, from the “Naked Gun…”


I loved that Leslie Nielsen could make us laugh with something as silly as “bingo.”  What a guy.  

It's good to share...
