I’m Using A Goat For a Body Shield
Next time I’m in trouble I’m going to use a goat for a shield, as the little buggers seem to be able to shrug off stun gun attacks.
MTV is The Root Of All Evil
A well-done rant about how MTV has completely destroyed our intelligence, our attention span, our communication abilities, and, most of all our patience.
Random Search Referrals
Apparently I’m the number one result for i want a penis on Google. I’m the number two result for “cell phone with vibrator,” number three for “10 pound hamburger,” number one for “invisible movie characters,” and number nine for “long penis.”
I really need to quit looking at my referral logs. Those hits came in the last few hours, so I can only imagine what I’d find if I dug around a bit.
It’s For Medical Reasons, Man
Almost 600 marijuana plants and “clones” worth an estimated $375,000 at maturity were seized in a raid on a Powell Butte greenhouse late last week. Full Story.
Sadly, when/if these old ladies are thrown in jail, they’ll probably spend more time in prison than our child-molesting cop (who is now out on bail, by the way).
Flaming Rabbit Gets Revenge
Oh my…
A rabbit set alight by a bonfire at a British cricket club got its revenge when it ran burning into a hut and set it ablaze destroying costly equipment, the club said on Friday.
Members of Devizes cricket club in Wiltshire, western England, were burning dead branches when a rabbit caught up in the waste sped burning from the flames spreading a fire which destroyed lawnmowers and tools worth $110,000.
This is a Monty Python sketch waiting to happen. Full Story.
I’m Going To Toss My AP Stylebook
Last I checked, the Associated Press Stylebook requires capitalization for the words Internet, Net, and Web. Wired is bucking that trend. I agree with them, as the words are just another common medium — we don’t capitalize radio, television, or newspapers, do we? If I remember correctly (and I don’t have my stylebook in front of me), the AP stylebook also hyphenates “on-line” which I’ve always violently refused to do, because the hyphenation makes it sound like there’s one “line” that transports all of the ‘nets traffic — similar to “on-air” (which should be hyphenated).

Update Again: Another media blog that supports the decision.
Olympic Celebration Sets Fire to Park
Apparently the fireworks shot off during the Opening Ceremonies for the Olympics managed to set fire to a local park. Whoops.
You Can Buy Anything In Bulk
On Monday, Costco Wholesale Corp., better known for bulk chicken and cases of soda, started test marketing caskets along side mattresses at a North Side Chicago store and one in suburban Oak Brook.
Forget buying one, I’d rather just build my own. Links via Waxy.
A New Date Rape Drug
Joke Sent From Craig…
Police today warned all men who frequent clubs and parties to stay cautious when offered drinks by women. Females are using a date rape drug called “beer” to target unsuspecting men. This drug comes in liquid form and is available nearly everywhere.
“Beer” as it is commonly referred to, is used by female predators to persuade hapless male victims to go home with them. Women need only persuade a man to consume a few of these “beers” and then ask him home for no-strings-attached sex, a simple approach that renders most men helpless.
After several “beers,” men will have sex with even unattractive women. Often men awaken with only hazy memories of the night before, a horrible headache, and a vague feeling that something bad happened.
Some really unfortunate men are even separated from their life’s savings in a scam called “a relationship.”
In extreme cases, females have entrapped unsuspecting males into long-term servitude through a punishment called “marriage.”
Apparently, men are much more susceptible to this scam once “beer” is administered.
Forward this warning to every male you know. And if you, or some man you know, have fallen victim to this insidious “beer” and the predatory women who administer it, rest assured: male support groups exist in every major city where you can discuss the ugly details of your encounter in an open and frank manner with similarly affected, like-minded guys.
For the support group nearest you, look in the Yellow Pages under “Golf Courses.”
