B105 Things

A designer painted dozens of pairs of shoes so they appear to be decorated with butter cream, sprinkles, chocolate, and very realistic looking cherries.  You can find them at shobakery.com.

Will and Kate will take Prince George on First Overseas Trip.  They'll be heading to New Zealand and Australia April 7 through the 25th.

Tennessee State University students now will have ID badges that can be tracked where they are on campus.   This is due to a rash of break-ins and vandalism, and now will be a safety feature.

Things foreigners tell each other about weird habits we have.

  • Don't drink the water in America, bottle water is recommended
  • Americans have inconsistent social boundaries
  • Don't go nude in public, be drunk, or urinate... Americans have a strange legal system
  • The "tipping" system is terribly difficult to understand
  • Use sports to help socializing with Americans
