Here’s quite a Mythbusters story making the rounds about their accidentally blasting a cannonball out of their usual shooting range and into the neighboring residential area… and the most interesting find was from a blogger (at laslow.net) who saved a pre-accident photo of Kari Byron posing with a cannon:

Why is this a big deal right now? Well, here are links to some of the popular stories about what happened after this photograph was taken:

It’s been just about 9 months since we learned of Mareena Silva, the woman in Colorado who went to Safeway to pick up an antibiotic prescription and was instead given methotrexate, which is an anti-cancer drug that works by hindering the development of fast-growing cells.
Unfortunately for her, “fast-growing cells” is a great description of a fetus. So, last we heard, she was waiting to see how damaged her very-much-wanted baby would be. At worst, the drug can trigger a miscarriage (and has even been used for abortions).
A Google search hasn’t turned up anything yet. Does anybody know if her baby was born healthy? Any updates on the story or the inevitable lawsuit and/or settlement?

Wow, this is one of those “time flies” kinds of things. Anyone remember “Whiteboard Jenny” — the “15 minutes of fame” girl who supposedly quit her job by writing a series of notes to her boss on a hand-held dry-erase board? That was actress Elyse Porterfield, who’s now Elyse Anderson after having gotten married last March. Belated congratulations, Elyse!

Okay, I’ll admit that I’ve dropped off the scene for awhile as well… but I didn’t have a national real estate television show with thousands and thousands of fans. So, what have Richard C. Davis and Ginger Alexander (and the rest of Team Trademark) been doing lately?
Their online radio show (with live video) has been gone for more than a year (formerly at www.trademarkradio.com)
The Richard Davis twitter feed is updated every few days with a sports link or a real estate link, but not much more than that.
The Trademark Properties twitter feed hasn’t been touched in months.
The merchandise sold through www.trademark-productions.net must not exist anymore because that domain has lapsed into a search site (but it had some fun Trademark Properties t-shirts and hats in 2008…)
The Trademark Properties YouTube site hasn’t been updated since 2007 and the last login was a year ago.
Wow! That’s about as close to “dropped off the face of the earth” as you’re going to get. What happened?

It’s old news now that “Jenny” who took a dry-erase marker to a white board and quit working for her boss “Spencer” was a hoax by the people at The Chive.
But who really is Elyse Porterfield?
ABC News has a nice story about her:
- 22 years old
- Colorado native
- Move to L.A. in June 2010
- A “featured extra” in the movie Project X (on the set July 16th according to her Twitter account)
It’s pretty common knowledge that she was named an Angelina Jolie lookalike by People Magazine last January.
She also has a Facebook page and a Twitter account
And alas, guys, I’m guessing she has a boyfriend — or at least seems pretty cozy with Matt Anderson (who, as of this writing, has a photo of himself with her as his Facebook profile photo)
Maybe he’s just a cousin or neighbor something… but assuming the Matt Anderson she went on vacation with is the same Matt on Twitter who she calls “my baby” I’m thinking the rest of you guys are going to need to cool your jets…
Does that help?

Was Ginger pregnant? I know it’s a a stupid question becuase the answer should be really simple… but for the life of me (well, “for the life ‘few minutes of Googling’ of me”) I couldn’t figure out if that was just a rumor of if there’s a little Richard C. Davis running around somewhere?
Sorry that I don’t have better Trademark information here; you gotta admit, the buzz kinda died off.
Comment and let me know if Ginger’s pregnancy was real or just a few people looking at the wrong photos at the wrong angle…

Bree Lindsay (not spelled Bree Lindsey, BTW), the “entertainment reporter” from The Onion, is actually Brittany Umar of New York. She rose to fame (if you can put it that way — it’s just one video) by appearing in The Onion’s review of the new Star Trek movie. Read more from her at her Twitter link below:

Thanks to a comment from a dedicated att.ention.net reader, we learn that Kari Byron really is pregnant.
Unless Adam Savage’s Twitter account has been hacked or he’s more than a month early on an April Fool’s joke, he reports the breaking news:
This just in Mythbuster fans: Kari Byron is pregnant! Congrats Kari, I can’t wait to meet the new mythbuster!
