MT-BlackList 

mtblacklist.png
I just installed the MT-BlackList plugin which will hopefully block alot of the comment-spam we’ve been getting. It also had this groovy retro-delete feature that went and killed all the old spam comments too. based on its success rate with that, i think it will work out well.



Bush on Gay Marriage 

“The sacred institution of marriage should not be redefined by a few activist judges.” - G.W. Bush

Neither should the sacred results of a presidential election.



End of Civilization 

So, apparently the end of civilization as we know it is going to be coming here in about an hour. The four horsemen of the apocalypse passed through town oiled up in booty shorts on a pride day float shaped like a giant, rainbow-colored penis. All of my married friends informed me that they plan to immediately file for divorce on the grounds that they wish to marry their siblings instead. One of the more distressing signs was that of a transgendered Michael Jackson impersonator leading the fourth grade class he was substitute teaching for to a polygamous, child marriage indoctrination session. And on my way home, I saw a woman camped outside city hall with her golden retriever and a jar of peanut butter.

Things have even become violent! The local National Guard unit was seen prancing around in pink neckerchiefs shooting random civilians with giant penis rifles to the beat of old show tunes. This afternoon I saw a group of guys dressed as the Village People assault a man and woman who commented that Dolly Parton was getting on in years. Yes, it certainly looks like the end of the world as we know it. I just finished talking to my boyfriend. He’s going to take a six-pack to city hall and watch Satan make his grand entrance.

But the real question for me is… can I use the end of the world as an excuse to turn in my final project a few days late?



Christians and Math 

Back in 2000 he (Mahatma Gandhi) topped a BBC News Online poll as the greatest man of the past 1,000 years, pushing Leonardo da Vinci and Jesus Christ into second and third respectively.

does anybody see the problem with #3 there? Damn zealots.

from a story about India’s recent elections.



I knew they were overpriced 

custom-segway.jpgCheck out this custom segway that this geek (sorry dude, you look and talk like one, but its not a bad thing) named Trevor Blackell designed and built. The guy even built a one-wheeled segway, although it doesn’t seem as safe.

Tax My ASS 

According to this story, Kerry’s wife, the wealthy Heinze ketchup barroness, paid about 15% of her 5 million dollars of income this year in taxes.

why are people always complaining that the rich pay more taxes? I paid 30% of my salary in taxes, and I sure as hell don’t fit into anyone’s description of rich (anyone that has access to the internet to read this anyway)

Micheal Moore’s movie may not be released 

So Apparently Disney is putting the Kaibash on MM’s new film. Thanks to these past 3 years with this administration. I doubt everyone now. And 30% of me is wondering if this is just a marketing ploy.

Trust no one.
