When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. And when the police investigate you for bringing your daughter tanning and the entire country goes "WTF" because you are just that incredibly weirdly tan, take that dubious celebrity and use it to make a music video. Then call it "It's Tan Mom" because no one knows her real name (it's Patricia Krentcil, BTW), just the name from all the headlines. And here is the bizarrely orange-colored lemonade for us to enjoy, looking more like a segment from the "Tim & Eric" show and featuring some effing hipsters riding those leathery coattails all the way to the YouTube viral bank.

Did you know that the U.S. Marine Corps has a policy on umbrella holding? Uniform regulations state that a male Marine can’t hold an umbrella (ella, ella) while wearing his uniform, presumably because he can't salute at the same time. President Obama probably didn't know this when he asked two Marines to hold bumbershoots over him and Turkey's prime minister during a press conference Thursday. Seeing a Marine with this particular accessory is "extremely rare," Marine Corps spokesman Capt.
