Weird: FoxNews has the story of a man who collected some 80,000 empty beer cans in his rented house over the course of 8 years. That means he drank 24 beers every day. Judging by the pictures, he was fond of Coors. The cans were returned and the deposits totalled $800.

Da Vinci: Steve Camp went to see the Da Vinci Code movie and wrote a small review. Not surpisingly, he thought it was awful. This is pretty well what most reviewers are saying–it’s just a bad movie.

Reviews: I recently updated Discerning Reader with many new reviews, including some written by the new editors. Take a look and get caught up!
