This week, I took you through a group of songs that would go well with the recovery from the stomach flu. Romantic, isn’t it? Without further ado, here they are, links for listening and all.

America’s food industries have hit a new low.

On Tuesday, Starbucks debuted the trenta drink size, a 31-ounce cup for iced drinks, essentially an even more caffeine-drenched Big Gulp.

But DiGiorno has stepped up its game too, which went more unnoticed than the new, obscenely large drink. Now, when baking a frozen pizza, there’s no need to worry about dessert, because “DiGiorno Pizza & Cookies” comes with a batch of frozen Nestle cookie dough.

I have been web-linked to my own despair. Wednesday afternoon, Twitter sent me on a journey through a labyrinth of links, only to find out information that any pop culture fanatic would be upset upon hearing.  However, I am not alone. The current victims are those devoted fans, and cult followers, of alternative rock band The White Stripes, which officially announced its breakup yesterday. Those who are familiar with the band and have heard the news may see the buzz as just another romantic makeup-and-breakup story, but on this particular occasion, the pair has disbanded in more ways than one.
