“I know the market for Dark Knight media has become a bit over-saturated (that point came around the time I stooped to posted a Batman milk ad), but a new trailer to the much-anticipated sequel just debuted on Comcast’s On-Demand service and illicitly found its way online, so I think that justifies a post. In exchange for your tolerance, I’ll stop work on my Dark Knight Fruit Snack exposé, even thought it was going to blow some minds.”

“How are the suits at Lamborghini upgrading their most sucessful vehicle ever? Get this—by replacing the Gallardo with an even better one! Since it debuted in 2003, more than 7,100 rich-guy driveways have been torn up by their “entry-level” ride (that’s actually a huge number for the firm’s hand-built standards). Five years is long in supercar years, so a call for change brings us the LP560-4, an enhanced Gallardo that pinches high-tech components and sleek design language from Lambo’s most exclusive models. A new engine supplies 560 hp, hence the moniker, while severely angled front and back ends push the car, and onlookers’ jaws, to the ground.”
