"TheSimpsons" news and stories

I didn't even know that this site had anything to do with a cross promotion that Burger King is doing with the new Simpsons Movie. Even though I went to the site and saw that creepy king guy before I saw a commercial for the site last night it still didn't register.

But this site works really well. You upload a picture of yourself and it turns you into a Simpsons-ish character. I can't find a good enough picture for myself (it has to be a fairly close-up face pic, in color, and at least 640x480 pixels), but a friend of mine did it and the character it created was uncanny. If you do it, put in a link to your site in the comments and show us the results!

Ever wonder why Tony Blair was so pale? Evidently, they're not doing so well teaching kids proper eating habits in Britain. In a survey of eight- to 12-year-olds, one in six believed that broccoli was a baby tree, and one in five had never seen a zucchini. The survey, conducted by British food chain Somerfield, also found that kids' eating habits were influenced by watching The Simpsons (doughnuts) and Big Brother ("alcohol, fry-ups and sweets").
