Sometimes you look at a site and think “How the hell do these people make so much money?” or “Why didn’t I think of this?” There are several of those here, including the Million Dollar Homepage, Doggles and Santa Mail.

Great Practical Joke
What do you do when your buddy leaves for a few days? Get busy and flip his room upside down.
Is There A Zombie In The Vatican?
Apparently the Vatican has emerged as a source of spam traffic. Not intentionally, I’m sure, but there is probably a zombied computer somewhere in the Vatican that is sending out spam (and according to one study, 80% of all spam comes from zombie computers). So if people would just run their computers effectively — patch often, run a firewall, run antivirus software, use Firefox instead of MSIE, scan for spyware regularly — I’m sure the world would have far less of a spam problem (wishful thinking, I know).
And before I hear it, yes, they could buy a Mac or use a Linux machine and not have these problem. But realistically, that’s not going to happen for most people, and I think we all know that.
I could also see this being a new Mac commercial: “Devine intervention is still not going to help your PC stay clean.”

When Applesauce Is Outlawed…
…only outlaws will have applesauce.
PHILADELPHIA — A customer at a city grocery tackled an armed robber and beat him with a can of applesauce when he refused to drop his gun, police said.
The suspect shot himself in the head during the struggle, and passed out after the 66-year-old customer administered four blows to the head with the Mott’s applesauce.

Why Take A Gadget-Filled Road Trip?
I’m not sure why you would take nearly a dozen gadgets on a trip in the Mt. Hood Wilderness, but this guy did (including a video iPod, a MacBook Pro, and Sony PlayStation Portable). Out of all the gadgets of his I might have brought, it’d probably only be the satelite phone, in case of emergencies. Otherwise, you can’t really enjoy the trip because you’re constantly playing with your gadgets.
Thanks Mrs. H for the link.
I Never Thought I’d See The Day
South Park was nominated for an emmy for making fun of Tom Cruise in that now infamous Scientology episode (view the episode here).
I’ve Been Hit By Digg.com
My Life Is Now Complete. This site has been hit up on Digg thanks to the morons who keep posting comments on this really old AOL story. So I’ve now been mentioned on Digg and the New York Times because of AOL morons because of this.
So welcome Digg readers! Feel free to post a comment here. And you’ll be happy to know that despite all this traffic, my server’s barely been pushed at all (thank goodness for MovableType’s static page creation).
