Good news/Bad news....ala BBC

So there's this terrific article up on BBC news today (btw - hi! I'm back!). These research-types found out that a certain kind of food dye may actually be used to protect spinal cord injuries (in much higher doses than your typical drop or two to color edibles). This is good news, right? Sure.

On the down side, the mice they've tested with this chemical already.... sort of turned blue. Oops?

Hi - I'm an adorable blue-tinged mouse.
My spine is fine, why do you ask?

In other news:

• Divorce is bad for your health - surprise, stress is bad!
  
• Pirates, watch out! (news involving pirates is always crucial to report, didn't you know?)
  
• Firefighting robots are cool (no pun intended...really.)
  
• Jess is procrastinating - number of people surprised by this: 0.

Okay, maybe this guy.
