* Hankering for Lost? Can’t wait to see the upcoming end of Alias? Desperate for Desperate Housewives? ABC will be offering new episodes this month on the web. For free. (If you’re outside the US, here’s how)

* I was excited when I found out JJ Abrams would be doing a new Star Trek movie. Turns out it might not be true after all. I was looking forward to see Uhura do some Sydney Bristow moves.

* I’m still hoping Starblazers (Yamato: The Space Cruiser to some) will still get the live-action translation it truly deserves. Depp as Derek Wildstar!

* In the same vein as Post Secret, I found this site called The Saddest Thing I Own via BoingBoing. The saddest thing I own? A pair of size 32-inch waist jeans which I can no longer wear.

* You know that old joke about fruitcakes? That there aren’t any new fruitcakes being made – they’re just being re-wrapped and passed around every year? Well, this guy rediscovers a fruitcake from 1962.

* New reality show: porn stars to do Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard in “My Bare Lady”. Time to start deleting those Martha Stewart episodes from the DVR.

* I can finally get that Air Supply tattoo! UV Blacklight Ink would only show up under blacklight and not under normal light. Of course if I do get a tattoo, I won’t be worried getting drafted into the Chinese military: they’ve banned snorers and tattoo-wearers.

* This article made me very, very confused. Apparently, pushing food into your spoon using your fork isn’t the proper way to eat. Must be a French thing. (via Nitpicky)

* YouTube goodies: Secret Wars Re-enactment Society, Casino Royale French Trailer, X-Men 3 clip featuring Sentinel, Stephen Colbert at the White House Correspondent’s Association Dinner and a Superman Returns clip.
