In our ongoing rant against the evil pharmaceutical companies, I don''t think there's a more blatantly evil product on the market than Celebrex.  Not just for the potential side effects, but for the sheer audacity that the makers of Celebrex - knowing that the product can cause many severe side effects - continue to distribute this product.  As well as continue to advertise it on television as something that anyone in their right mind would actually ask their doctor if it was 'right for them'.

This commercial clocks in at an astounding 2 1/2 minutes.  Barely enough time to mention the following list of potential side effects....

May increase the chance of heart attack or stroke, leading to death.

Increases the chance of serious skin reactions or stomach and intestine problems, such as bleeding ulcers, which can occur without warning and may cause death.

Patients taking aspirin, or that have high blood pressure are at a greater risk of these symptoms.

Some patients experienced Indigestion, abdominal pain, and nausea.

Potential stomach bleeding and ulcers.

Not to be taken if you're pregnant, or have an allergic reaction to aspirin.

Possible kidney and liver damage.

And they proudly state that "Celebrex has never been taken off the market".  You can thank the pharmaceutical lobbyists for that.

 Here's a fun idea I came up with to really annoy people! 

It would've been fun to do on April Fool's Day, but it's too late for that, now, isn't it?  But who says you can pull pranks only one day of the year, anyway?!  Where's the fun in that?!  We like to really push the envelope here at Wide To Infinity, so we put together a fun experiment you can do in your own office or home or Starbucks or wherever it is you waste time on the internet.

Below you will see a list of links.  They are all links to YouTube videos that feature the theme song from the TV show 'Weeds' -a quirky little series on Showtime that features different musical acts performing their theme song. 

If you click on each link one after another, (each link opens in another window) and then TURN UP YOUR SPEAKERS you will experience a competely annoying experience of several versions of the same theme song, being played by different artists, slightly out of sync with each other (depending on how you click the links).

Weeds Theme - Randy Newman

Weeds Theme - Elvis Costello

Weeds Theme - The Shins

Weeds Theme - Linkin Park

Again, it's just a way to break outside of the April Fool's Day box and be annoying to people any time you damn well feel like it.

Your boss/mother/father/roommate/husband/wife/lover/kids/neighbors

will get a big kick out of it!

What a kooky election year we're having.  A black man and a white woman running for the worst job in the world!  It's like a bad episode of Celebrity Apprentice.

And just to make sure we don't get bored with this never-ending race for the White House, it was announced this week that Democratic frontrunner Barak Obama is a distant cousin to Brad Pitt. 

Why didn't anybody catch the resemblance before...

Damn those cousins with their perfect abs!

And not to be outdone, Democratic co-frontrunner Hillary Clinton discovered her roots link her to none other than Angelina Jolie!....

Damn those cousins with their perfect.....everything!

It's a good thing they didn't do this for George W........

 Poor chimp.

I saw this brief newsclip of our fearless leader today on the news, and I thought it was another classic from the 43rd President of the United States, so I made a tribute of the moment and loaded it up to YouTube just for fun.

I already got 18 hits! He's a popular guy.

Here's an inspiring story!

The oldest married couple in the world are celebrating their anniversary!  Break out the party hats and the defibrillator!

I particularly like the comments by the news team...

"They look pretty good for after that amount of time!"

"Mmmm-Hmmm"

By the way, this video was captured off the TV, and there's a little glitch towards the end of the video when the couple are walking down a hallway. The video gets stuck for a split second.....but it seems sort of appropriate that you can't really tell, anyway.
