    Crazy Bird Call Man Interrupts U.S. Open [VIDEO]

    By Todd Wasserman | Mashable – Mon, Jun 18, 2012

    Who says golf is boring? If you made the mistake of tuning out of this year's U.S. Open, for instance, you missed this extraordinary interview with champ Webb Simpson.

    True, the interview itself, with NBC's Bob Costas, is initially about as exciting as a sand trap, but things change when an odd man wearing a Union Jack hat arrives on the scene to do some impromptu bird calls. Simpson may not have been too amused initially ("Enjoy the jail cell, pal," he says), but the Internet is, sending the video to the top of Reddit. Simpson also came around, tweeting a picture of himself with Bird Call Man with the message, "My new friend."

      Rick Perry, the Texas governor and 2012 "oops" presidential candidate, is spending the beginning of this week in Connecticut. Perry, as the governor of Texas, has little on-its-face reason to be in Connecticut. Except, of course, for one: Texas's unemployment rate, which at 6.4 percent in April is significantly lower than the national average, is still not quite ideal. Perry wants to bring jobs to his state. And, as he sees it, some of those jobs could come from Connecticut.

      In a preview of the many pronouncements to come on the floor of Congress as the House debates a legislative ban on all abortions after 20 weeks, allow us to introduce you to Rep.
