A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago

DON'T FORGET -- A FOAMY LATTE MAKES HIM ALL FARTY AND BLOATED: Congratulations to former SNL star Will Ferrell, who finished the Boston Marathon today, his third, in 3 hours, 56 minutes, 12 seconds, a half-hour better than his previous best. According to the Boston Globe:

''It's truly an amazing event. Along with the history and everything, it's a bit of a blur,'' Ferrell said. ''Heartbreak Hill felt like a lovely summer day ... and then you get hit over the head with a hammer.''

His numbers, via the computer chip in his sneakers (bib #9999), reflect a very consistent pace of 5K every 27-28 minutes:
