Sorry to do this, but I’ve had to tighten up my comment policy due to a comment spam attack. 2 days and over 100 spam comments (and that’s for a site with less traffic than 127.0.0.1). Anyone who uses TypeKey gets their comments auto published; otherwise, the comment goes in the queue. Spammers are scum, […]
Cross-examined by Lautenschlager, Vang was asked if each victim deserved to die. Vang answered “no” in some cases and “yes” in others. Stunning… have fun in prison. Link
Penn & Teller’s Bullshit! on Showtime is one of the most lucid shows out there. Unfortunately, it’s on Showtime, which I don’t get (thank you, Internet). Today, I found a link to the episode on PETA, the People for the *cough*Ethical*cough* Treatment of Animals. It’s good enough that I’m posting the video here (right-click, save […]

After dropping pretty much every decent feature from Vista, Microsoft had […]
One of the very few podcasts I subscribe to (This Week in Tech) released one of their episodes on video. This was shot live in the San Francisco Apple store. BitTorrent download. Link
“I don’t think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees.” –President Bush, on “Good Morning America,” Sept. 1, 2005, six days after repeated warnings from experts about the scope of damage expected from Hurricane Katrina (Source) Link [via Fark]
I’m currently enjoying a glass of Arcadia Ales’ Amber Ale, an excellent ale from the Arcadia Brewing Company (warning: crappy browsing experience) in Battle Creek. It will soon be chased by a New Holland Sundog Ale brewed in Holland (Michigan). Why the dopey post about microbrews? Because I had to pour out five gallons of […]
Add geography to the growing list of FEMA fumbles. A South Carolina health official said his colleagues scrambled Tuesday when FEMA gave only a half-hour notice to prepare for the arrival of a plane carrying as many as 180 evacuees to Charleston. But the plane, instead, landed in Charleston, West Virginia, 400 miles away. I […]
