As the author of GGSearch pointed out to me via e-mail, if people search Google for instructions on removing his software (and nice product, BTW), the #1 result is this entry on my site — which obviously has nothing to do with removing the software. In yet another reason why Page Rank Is Dead, Andrei is having the same problem.

I need to do another write-up about how people are finding this site, similar to past entries (which may or may not be valid anymore).

He covered the entire hotel room — mattresses, pillows, sheets, furniture, TV, blankets, carpets, etc…– at the Motel 6 he was staying at with Vaseline. Apparently he had done it to a couple of other hotels’ rooms as well. He was arrested at a neighboring Econo Lodge.

I remember a long time ago the big ruckus about Saccharin, the sweetener in Sweet and Low. Everybody thought it caused cancer (only if you inhaled about 5,000 of those packets at once), then thought it didn’t.

Where am I going with this? Everything causes some disease or can be used to make you high, if you ingest enough of it. Which is the case apparently now with the seeds of Morning Glories — a fairly common flower. Apparently they’ll get you high.

Or at least that’s what kids believe:

Pharmacologist Harry Robertson says it’s unlikely someone could get high from a packet of seeds. “You have to eat an awful lot of seeds and you have to make sure you get the right seeds before you’ll find much of the LSD-like compound.”

At Halifax Seed, manager Tim Tregunno says it has been 10 years since they’ve had a customer with a hidden agenda. The problem is easy to spot, he adds. “Younger kids coming in asking for five to 10 pounds would certainly be a clue.”

You think so? When have you ever seen a younger kid do anything, let alone garden, that they would need that big of an order?

A city government employee keeps a female mannequin in his office, the mayor asks to remove it, and the employee screams back that it’s art and should stay, and he’ll sue, despite all the complaints. Weirdo.

So says his just-as-weird brother, a Rod Stewart impersonator. Personally, I’d like to beat Stewart senseless, but I quite enjoy Spacey’s movies.

Then you might not necessarily have a small penis. And somebody paid for that study.

Especially if you’re using Viagra:

In celebration of the sixth anniversary of the launch of Viagra (sildenafil citrate), Pfizer Inc today announced the launch of an innovative new savings program called The Value Card for Viagra. The new program offers men a convenient way to get a free Viagra prescription every time they fill six eligible prescriptions.

Full Story from PRBop.

Especially when they’ll consider paying $195 for this (can’t you almost buy a new iPod for that?). Link via Waxy.

The man agreed to surrender to the police and SWAT team surrounding his home, but he needed to grab a beer first.

I’ll never gripe after this guy’s been at an airport for over 10 years. The link’s a bit dated — anybody know if he’s still there?
