Not surprisingly, the gesture immediately garnered Adele fourteen more awards.

Barrymore, Drew — The E.T. and, later, Charlie’s Angels star has developed (or at least put her name on) a new brand of Pinot Grigio bearing the Barrymore family crest and retailing for $19.99.

Boys, The Beach — Tennessee music festival Bonnaroo, known for its forward thinking and eclectic lineups, has announced that its 2012 event will feature the Beach Boys as a headlining act.

Scrolls, Fart — If you’re like us here at the Brown Tweed Society, you probably spend a lot of your time poring over ancient Japanese scrolls. But none can compare to  the recently brought-to-light “Japanese Fart Scrolls,” which depict soldiers farting mighty winds upon their enemies, Japanese men farting animals up into the air, and women clamoring around a bent-over Japanese man, clamoring for the gas from his bare behind. I don’t think I need to tell you that this is the best piece of history ever. So just go look at them already. If nothing else, it supports the belief that flatulence has been used for stealthy warfare for thousands of years.
