Mark Zuckerberg says he will kill what he eats. The Facebook founder is apparently fed up with buying his meat neatly packaged on styrofoam trays and wrapped in plastic, and he should be. I understand vegetarians and have no quarrel with them but for carnivores to deplore hunting or to pretend that all the horrible things that happen to farm animals in feedlots and slaughter houses have no connection to what shows up in the Whole Foods butcher section is ah, hypocritical. Sharpen those knives, Mark- I’ll be joining you for dinner.
UPDATE: on the other hand, Zuckerberg may be adopting this new dining strategy because he won’t be able to afford supermarket food. Here’s a fascinating story about a lawsuit against him claiming that he promised someone 50% of the company for funding (all of $2,000) the start up. What was initially described as ludicrous is now gaining momentum. Memo to 19-year-old would-be entrepreneurs: be careful what you promise and for God’s sake, don’t put those promises in an e-mail.

Ok, as instructed, I’ve read everything there is to know about this “Paul Ceglia” character, and his claim to be the owner of 84% of FaceBook. Conclusion: Mr. Ceglia will be spending some time in a New York penitentiary.
He’s already spent time there, but for unrelated matters. What, you don’t believe him?
I hope CNBC puts up the interview they did with the woman who wrote the Fortune article. It is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen in my life. The woman says in a stunned voice “He ate a WHOLE chicken.” Then they ran a caption under the screen saying “His first kill was a lobster.”
If I was an intern at Facebook right now I’d be nervous…
The reason Mr. Ceglia waited 7 years to file this suit is that he had “forgotten that he had this contract until he went searching through old e-mails”. Unlikely. As with most criminals, there is always a trail of previous crimes leading up to the one you finally hear about.
Statistically speaking, being a billionaire only adds 3.5 year to the average American’s life expectancy. However, “Intelligence Predicts Health and

Mark was certainly smart at early age. He really does not have to worry about the styrofoam packaging.
