I worked nearly 60 hours last week, ergo, no posting. Hell I don't feel like posting this even. The topic is from a FedExKinko's commercial (that I don't have, yet). Other funny things heard on TV: Oral Steroid *snicker* Uhm, Elf is a funny movie. When I answer the phone from now on I will have to say "What's your favorite color" instead of "Hello."

Kerry had far more grace and dignity than Al Gore, or Teresa Heinz-Kerry at the concession speech (who nearly got left behind and almost fell backwards on stage - I blame the raisins). So you got second place. But really Kerry is in First Place in my mind. First Place Loser! Ahahahahahahahahahah!

Okay we are not quite done with the election, yet. Ohio of all states is not "officially" for Bush. Kerry is trying to draw this out despite Bush clearly winning in Ohio and several other states and in the popular vote. Waiting... Who will blink first? Oh and I fully expect this time that Alec Baldwin et al. get on a plane and finally leave the country like he said he would if Bush won. Okay

If Kerry Wins tonight, we will not be getting a "fresh start." In fact we will regress to a point before Sept. 11, 2001. A time when nuclear proliferation was the primary international crisis (remember Pakistan and India nearly nuked each other). Terrorism will be treated as a law-enforcement concern, as it was under Clinton (who rounded up and sent to jail the cell responsible for the first -

Got this from Rock the Vote (Don't Ask): Why should you vote? Because you’ve been looking for a job for way too long. Or your crappy job is not what you ever thought you would be doing. Or you can barely pay rent ‘cause you’re paying off all of your student loans. So you are forced to borrow more money and charge more things to your credit cards. So it's G. W. Bush's fault you took

REPOSTED from 6/04 We must fight. You cannot win a fight if you lack the will to fight. And we are currently not willing to fight as hard as we need to. We are loitering in Europe a decade after the fall of the Soviet Union. We are sitting on our hands regarding Iran and North Korea in addition to really dealing with Al Queda. Restraint is not what we need, we need mobilization and action.

First we hear that a Bush campaign HQ in California was broken into and only certain computers were taken - computers with sensitive info to the Bush re-election campaign. Now we learn that Kerry pulled something out of his pocket at the start of the first debate.

John Kerry wants to repeat a HUGE mistake of the Clinton Admin by giving Iran (IRAN!) nuclear material and finger-wag at them to be nice and NOT MAKE NUCLEAR WEAPONS.

CBS, and Dan Rather specifically, is imploding primarily due to the 60 Minutes II report based entirely on forged National Guard documents was an agenda-based story, not a news/investigative journalism-based story. Dan Rather has an anti-Bush slant to his line of thinking and the forged memos fit in with this thought process perfectly. Hence the sloppy or almost non-existent verification of the

Forgerygate continues unabated (I just wanted to use the word unabated in something, today). Note that the forged documents were given to CBS by the JOHN KERRY CAMPAIGN. So unless Karl Rove personally handed them to some moronic JOHN KERRY intern I don't think this was really a Bush-spawned conspiracy. CBS won't say who produced them the documents, the Kerry camp is distancing themselves (

Isn't it interesting that almost immediately after G. W. Bush claims a lead over John Kerry, who has been running non-stop on his less than 6 month tour (which somehow became "two tours of duty") of Vietnam, the media is intently focused on Bush's National Guard service during the Vietnam war. An issue that was beaten nearly to death many months ago and was laid down because it didn't harm Bush

Maybe she's been hanging out with Ariana Huffington, who also used to be on the Right side of the fence and decided to come out of the closet as a flaming Socialist Liberal (and

This was found on the Insta site: "I DON'T CARE WHAT HE SAID:" KERRY REPUDIATES HOWARD DEAN: Kerry dismissed former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean's comment that raising the terror level might be politically motivated. "I don't care what he said. I haven't suggested that and I won't suggest that," Kerry said. "I do not hold that opinion. I don't believe that.'' Good for him. It is this absolute

Regarding the lovely, tolerant, comment from Teresa Heinz-Kerry where she told a newsperson to "Shove it" the newsperson is now getting death threats and accuses Heinz-Kerry with "McCarthyism" — note that it is a Lefty and a Lefty engaged in this verbal catfight. I officially throw a Yellow flag on the field for the unnecessary claim of "McCarthyism" on the play. If either party refers to "

So the Man/Woman Marriage Only Constitutional Amendment was put down and in response Kerry wants to make a Constitutional Amendment to guarantee everyone (including illegal aliens who manage to not get deported from the country) Health Care.

Everyone is talking about the damn 9/11 Comission Report and now we see why Bush opposed it. From the report we learned the following: * A group called "al Queda" (official spelling of the US Government) plotted and executed an attack on this country on Sept. 11, 2001. * This group is "stateless" and based largely on "ideology" and wants to murder us all. * This group has a figurehead named "

A Mac news website called Sept. 11, 2001 a "tragedy." I guess this is the definition the author was thinking of: 2. A fatal and mournful event; any event in which human lives are lost by human violence, more especially by unauthorized violence. Okay, so that is accurate to a point. But unauthorized violence? Good lord! Why not just call it what it was, an attack? 1. The act of attacking, or

Saw Spider-Man 2 tonight. It was definitely better than the first one. And it definitely sets up a third movie in a variety of ways.

A passenger plane landed at an Air Force base, which happens to be right next to a commercial airport. For an unknown reason the people on board were told to shut the window shades almost immediately. Obviously the

I swear I went to the hermitage and got a 10-leaf clover. And yet it doesn't show up in my inventory. WTF? Lying bastards! I don't even really know what I would have done with the 10-leaf clover (maybe pawn it or trade it for some lihc eye pie), but that's not the point. I had it, and it went away without warning. Stupid thing. And today all of a sudden I got a TON of "good" stuff. I must have

I am afraid we are at the fork in the road regarding our future role in the world. As we saw today, we are at war with barbaric animals. They are not an army, nation or state. They are everywhere and hold allegiance to their twisted religion and utter hatred for our existence. We must fight. You cannot win a fight if you lack the will to fight. And we are currently not willing to fight as hard

I accidentally got some banjo strings from the Hermit while trying to get something actually USEFUL to me. Damnit. If you can't figure out how to play the game, well, there are tutorials out there. I found a really EXTENSIVE one (that I am not sharing!) and while it is helpful I feel it is cheating to a large degree. It has cheating in the name. If I can find it, you can too. The time people

Lileks doesn't like movie reviews in blogs. Well, fine. I like them because I think it's interesting to hear other perspectives on movies. Movie-watching is a very personal experience. You get only a tiny amount of the content from a movie at any given time. And so you may miss some detail, a sound, background action, music score the first time through that someone else picked right up. That

I now know why it took so long to get House of 1,000 Corpses into theaters, it is a terrible movie. About the only interesting part is the commercial at the beginning with Captain Spaulding saying "Do you like blood?" only he says "Do you like blud?" in a non-specific drawl that makes me laugh each time I hear it. Other than that the movie is entirely derivative of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Got a callback today for an interview last week. It's going through corporate channels which means it will wind up taking slightly less than my expected lifespan to get an answer either way. At least this particular job isn't a complete dead-ender and has the possibility to relocate to other (nearby) States in case things turn in my favor. We shall see if I am foiled, again...

Has anyone else noticed that in Bruce Almighty there is virtually no religious iconography or symbolism anywhere in the movie except for a few very narrowly-tailored scenes? The two places there is any religious symbolism is the much-derided "parting of the red soup" scene which is a Christian element. And at the party for Bruce, he casually leans on a golden calf, another Christian Bible

I don't really have any more tips right now for Kingdom of Loathing, despite being a high-ranked site on Google so same. One tip I can impart to your adventurers is to find the Hidden Temple (I honestly don't remember how I did that) and spend a day going through there to build up your character.

Looks like Rush Limbaugh will be a free agent sometime soon. I find it interesting that fully half of the AP article on the pending divorce of Rush Limbaugh is spent lashing back at Rush Limbaugh for his defending of hisself against illegal medical records seizures and blatant attempts by the (staunch Liberal) DA to smear Limbaugh with overzealous prosecution and allegedly dreamt-up charges

I don't think a lot of Mac people appreciate the weight of the impending release of a Mac OS X-compatible v6.0 of the Parasolid kernel. Basically this is the equivalent to "WebKit" being available on the Mac platform (although without the very high-level API and built-in functionality of WebKit). Maybe more akin to WebCore, I guess. The Parasolid kernel powers a lot of high-end CAD/CAM/CAE

Apple has effective shut down a new Sony music "server" product called Sonos with the AirPort Express peripheral and AirTunes software.

This is why: "After taking office in 1981, Reagan began a sustained attack on the government’s civil rights apparatus, opened an assault on affirmative action and social welfare programs..." Affirmative Action? Did that start and end in 1981 when Reagan took office? Which social welfare programs have ever been terminated in this country? So he cut personally cut Social Security benefits?

I disagree with this guy on the need for higher gas prices. His world view is typical of the "do-gooder" Liberals. They see only themselves as at the mercy of high gas prices. They know nothing of the engines of commerce that make their cushy life possible. Would this guy be willing to pay more for fresh produce that is trucked in or brought in on trains that also run on petroleum-based fuels?

Heres some stuff I gleaned from playing Kingdom of Loathing: If you get a locked Orcish meat locker, get the rusty L-shaped piece of metal and the crusty L-shaped piece of metal. Combine them (with one Meat Paste). This makes a t-bone shaped key that unlocks the meat locker giving you a meat stack and empty meat locker. Place the empty meat locker at your campsite.

Instapundit Glenn equated the pure hatred the Left has for Bush to the feelings the Right had towards Bill Clinton. I don't think it's the same thing. We disliked Clinton, and we strongly disliked how he handled the affairs of the Presidency almost from day one (Don't ask, Don't Tell). What we really hated about Clinton is that he let many issues build up over time without actually dealing with
