Tiga – Sexor

This is a great electro pop album. Probably not for everyone, but try it out and see if it is to your liking.

Mourning Maureen

It's just not the same. Since Maureen abandoned her blog a few months ago, it's since been a shrine to her greatness, an insurance ad blog, and now this:

All South Park


This website has managed to legally upload er, host every episode of South Park for your viewing pleasure. For free. Like the cool insomniac I am, I am watching season 9 backwards right now.

UPDATE: Yeah, site was taken down. No surprise there.

UPDATE 2.0: YAY! Back online! It was just bandwidth problems/costs!

Not A Big Truck

Earlier this week, Senator Ted Stevens spoke on net neutrality using the analogy "the internet is a series of tubes". It only got better as he continued his report. Now he's got a techno remix of his speech and a viral video to boot. I don't remember the original site with the mp3, but I'll upload the song later.

Stormy Weather


The weather widget looks neat during storms, no?

6Q6 Spam Poetry

I got the weirdest spam today. It has no pictures and no links advertising viagra, horny bitches with webcams waiting to make me hworrnnniey, no stock tips. Just a little poem which breaks just about every rule from English Grammar 101.
without question. If someone starts fumbling or asking questions I'll hit
triple cartwheel, his feathers flashing white sunlight to a beach from
doing it for the greenbacks? You so and so, I thought to myself, what do you
foremost leaders were marked. Of course, he thought, the Breakfast Flock

Upon further perusal of the email, the really weird thing is that it wasn't even sent to me. Nothing in the to or from information contains anything remotely like any of my email addresses.

Abstemious Bullshit

I love Penn & Teller's show. This is their episode about on the government burning money on an ineffective abstinence only program. Eh, a few scenes are rather not work safe (boo, titties) so watch where you watch.



How pathetic were those virgins? Clearly the only real reason they were virgins was because no one would fuck them. They even said they'd do it bareback and still no takers.

I do want to sit in on one of their abstinence magic shows. Flash paper is pretty flashy. But then again, I'd probably rather sit in on one of Penn & Teller's own magic shows. Still, it would be amusing to see them make horrible analogies for sex while they torch their toys. Fire has got to be the worst metaphor for sex. Ever. It's a chemical process that completely changes the fuel into something else. Also, fires die. I've always like a car-driving analogy much more. Driving a car can take you to really fun places. Hell, maybe even the drive itself is a blast. Driving can dangerous but that's why we have airbags, anti-lock brakes, and five star crash ratings. When will the government stop wasting so much money?

Ms Chimpac Man

Wee! Monkey. :)

I wish I had those kinda pac-manning skills. I wonder what role video gaming will play in the evolution of monkeys. Hopefully they won't go back to primodial soup.

Random Old-School Video Game Ad


Ha ha ha! That game is intense! I have yet to beat it. And I've only gotten as far as I have because of the internet. I can't imagine actually playing that game through without help.

Everyone Loves Italian

I almost fogot to congratulate Italy for its victory yesterday over its one-time ally Germany.


Yeah. Good job, boys.

Happy Explsives Day!

Of course today is Independence day and everyone's favorite way to celebrate our national independence is to blow things up. (I don't know what it is about this country, but we really like to blow stuff up. I think the explosion needs to be our national flower.) Anyway, we didn't get any spectacular fireworks here, but they looked kinda neat in NYC from what I hear.

In other explosives-related news, North Korea tested its virility today with the Taepodong missle. Unfortunately for North Vietnam, they've hit that age where they could possibly use a little help to get it up. (I love that part one of the subtitles in that BBC article is "Strong condemnation". Clever Brits.)

America, never one to be out done, managed to finally get their shuttle in orbit. If you hadn't heard they had to reschedule a few times; Mother Nature couldn't work us in her schedule until today. Anyway, we're in space, the North Koreans are militarily impotent and the New York skyline is exploding. Intentionally.

Dependence Day


A Memphis church plans on unveiling a $2.5 million dollar replica of the Statue of Liberty on July 4. The real tragedy is that they've desecrated one of the most powerful symbols of American liberty, replacing her torch with a big splintery cross. Bet you can't guess what they replaced her stone tablets with. The pastor of the church says people won't be able to drive by the Statue of Liberation without thinking about their relationship with god. (After all, what could be more liberating than believing you are't powerful enough to control your behavior on your own?)

The article provides a glimmer of hope for Memphis in the form of 11 year-old girl named Evelyn Douglass who can see that this is just a little warped. She recognizes that the Statue of Liberty is a national symbol of the liberties our country has and that the cross is a religious symbol (and new S&M device). "It's not right that they are mixing the two."
Story.


The pastor also said that after a while people will get tired of the cross so he plans on mixing in picket signs reading "Abortoin is murder!", "Marriage is between a Man and woman!" and "Support Our Crusaders; Nuke the Middle East!" (Would you put it past them?)

Five Page Memoirs

Really sad story from NYC. Some crazy model typed up her life's memoirs at a Manhattan Apple store. One day she went in to check her mail and the next thing she knew her whole life's story was just there! What an accomplished life. Oh, PS she's currently homeless. That's why she had to go in to the Apple store to check her mail in the first place. So sad. She's really not that pretty either. Story.
