Mental Floss does the math. Which state is the most love-friendly? Not to spoil it, but what do you think of the slogan I just came up with for Alaska: “A-laska Is For A-lovers!” Take it, Alaska, it’s yours.

Well isn’t this fun news to wake up to. A pipeline in Alaska “ruptured during testing and spilled a mixture of methanol and oily water onto the tundra.” It was apparently a small spill, but come on BP, get it together.

To be absolutely clear, she had nothing to do with this. It was forwarded to her, and she wisely appears to have let it die in her inbox. Unfortunately for political reporters, this awful (AWFUL) joke was the most interesting thing to come out of the e-mail dump from Alaska.

According to the National Enquirer, this is the woman with whom Sarah Palin’s First Dude has been going rogue. Her name is Shailey Tripp (I know, his grandchild’s name—an added wrinkle of barf), a masseuse who has previously been arrested on charges of “maintaining a house of prostitution.” Skepticism is justifiable considering this originated in The Enquirer, but they did break the John Edwards/Rielle Hunter story, so their batting average on gross political sex scandals is depressingly high.
