The Scanner: The Interweb has no last-call

Hey boys and girls. I was out sick yesterday, so I didn't get a chance to get the Scanner up in time. So here it is for your weekend scanning pleasure. Not sure if we'll get a Weekend blog in today, but I'll make no promises.

In the meantime we've got cats that look like Wilford Brimley, Lindsay Lohan's mom, NBA Jam nostalgia and PBR coffins. Yeah, you only get that in The Scanner.

NXT Radio: Geekspeak with Whitney from Pop Candy

A lot of things happened at ROFLCon a few weeks back. I gained a new understanding for LOLCats, my faith in Rick Astley wavered, I was blinded - and changed forever - by Leslie Hall's gem sweaters and I sat in the back of a science lecture hall and did not fall asleep, just to name a few.

Justin is a former newspaper intern and has the scar tissue to prove it. Justin has been a staff writer for the Portland Press Herald/Maine Sunday Telegram since 2003, and in 2004 began writing a weekly column in the Monday Magazine.

If he had to pick a label, the column would fall under "youth culture," covering everything from high school dance etiquette, dealing with college debt, the resurgence of Roller Derby and Portland's one-of-a-kind music scene. This of course has not stopped him from answering letters to Santa Claus or writing about his experience riding shotgun in a drift car.

Justin is an export from the Midwest. He is a graduate of the University of Missouri and is originally from Minnesota. He enjoys bacon, cheap beer, redheads, Burt Reynolds jokes and wondering what the soundtrack to his life would sound like.

When he grows up he wants to be an international art thief. Or Captain America.

Until then he'll be bringing you dispatches about "the young people" and what they do.
