We'll drink to that


Posted at 12:01 am by Doug Parry, Herald staff

A new product called iBreath can turn your iPod into a breathalyzer you can use to give yourself a field sobriety test.

Apple intends to make this feature mandatory for anyone trying to buy songs on iTunes off the New Kids on the Block reunion album.

If you fail the sobriety test, it might be a good time to try airport karaoke. Travelers at the Houston airport are passing the time singing holiday-themed songs.

After long lines, intrusive security screenings and constant flight delays, a few off-key renditions of "Jingle Bells" might be just the thing to cheer you up -- or turn you into Private Pyle at the end of boot camp in "Full Metal Jacket."

Columnist David Sirota has a problem with Las Vegas -- and it's not the demise of the cheap buffet. It's the fact that all those glittering lights aren't exactly eco-friendly.

After getting cleaned out at the roulette table, Sirota calls Sin City a mirror to a culture of "cataclysmic consumption and hubristic hedonism."

We're not sure what all those words mean. All we know is the drinks are free!
