  1. This is Boo and his understudy Havoc. This kitten is more trouble than a tornado. Bonus pic: here's the garden where the cats hang out.
  2. Homer Simpson lends his voice to GPS Device If you're driving drunk, does it sound like Barney?
  3. Weird Al's Latest: Craig's List Lyrics: You've got a '65 Chevy Malibu With automatic drive A custom paint job too I'll trade you for my old wheelbarrow And a slightly used sombrero And I'll even throw in a stapler if you insist... Craigslist! I'm on Craiglsist, baby, come on! Yeah! Well we shared a quick glance Saturday at the mall I never took a chance Never approached you at all You were a blonde half-asian with a bad case of gas I was wearin' red speedos and a hockey mask Come on let's find that love connection that we missed On Craigslist! Yeah, Craigslist, come on! I'm on Craigslist Oh, baby, maybe you are too! Be bom ba chomb cadonk bin bam boo! An open letter to the snotty barista at the Coffee Bean on San Vacente Boulivard: I know there were twenty people behind me in line, But I was on a cell phone call with my mother. Didn't you see me hold up my index finger? That means I'll order my soy decaf hazelnut latte in just a couple of minutes. So what's with the attitude lady? No tip for you! Got a trashcan of Styrofoam peanuts You can have em for free You can drop by on the weekend And pick 'em up from me But the trashcan ain't part of the deal Only givin' you the peanuts, get real! Don't have hefty bag so get your own, Don't bug me with questions on the phone Don't ask for help, don't waste my time And don't complain 'cause they won't cost you a dime Just ask yourself: Do you want my Styrofoam peanuts? You can have my Styrofoam peanuts. Do you want my Styrofoam peanuts? You can have them all. They're on Craigslist! Craigslist! Oh, baby come on! I'm on Craigslist, Craigslist, Craigslist! I'm on Craigslist, Craigslist, Craigslist now!
  4. Sharks are so helpful when it comes to removing bodies.
  5. We are involved because we have allies and interests all over the globe. Abandon them and it is a very long fall. There are others waiting in the wings that would like to claim superpower status. China, Russia, Iran and India all have regional ambitions. Love US or hate US, the United States provides balance and stability in the world. Were we to suddenly disappear the wars that would be triggered would kill billions.
  6. Why? I call most of them numbnutz already.
  7. It's not really official but if feedback is any gage of how well a story is doing, Twilight appears to be a summer hit. Here are a few comments: Wow, just wow! This is electric! -R.K. A great startup. You've set the stage with a very plausible geopolitical scenario. -J.M. I want more, a lot more. And SOON! -D. What an incredible concept for a story. Scary but incredible. -E. Great thus far James, truly one of the best online stories I've read in several years. -J.R. So far one of the biggest questions is of the main characters in Twilight, Who is Gay? At this point, I'm not telling but I thought it would be fun to have a poll and see what the readers think.
  8. Oh dear. Maybe I need to rethink the cliffhangers in upcoming chapters of Twilight.
  9. Remembering Joey is posted here.
  10. Twilight Chapter 7 is posted!
  11. Is the universe a sphere or oval-shaped? The universe itself has no shape. Even if it is endless empty space, it's still the universe. Clusters and super-clusters of Galaxies take on structures that look like fibers and their overall structure looks like a web. I know the universe is expanding, but by how fast? It varies considerably. Distant older galaxies that we see through deep imaging seem to be moving faster than newer, closer galaxies suggesting that the outward motion from the point of the big-bang is slowing.
  12. I don't know if its irrational if it has happened before. My old school sat on the front of a large track of woodland. They had paths marked for different distances from 1/2 to 5 miles. It was great for our cross country runners and those of us playing other sports were expected to run too. One day after a smart remark I was asked to run the 2 mile track. When I was coming around the back side, tired and winded, I ran right into an ambush. Four big rednecks that I had had run ins off and on for a couple of years were waiting for and we were a mile away from any teachers or coaches to break it up. It was an ugly fight. It lasted more than a half hour. I was bound and determined not to go down but when I would hurt one of them, the others just traded off. There was just too damn many of them. I ended it by picking up a pine log braining one of them and breaking it over another one. They were shocked that I'd take it that far and then I ran like hell to get away. After it was over, all of us looked like we had been in a war. There was blood in my urine for a few days. It's a nightmare I have from time to time. Sometimes I'll wake up in a cold sweat. Sometimes I fight in my sleep. They asked me why I couldn't get along with people and couldn't understand why I'd give them the finger as an answer.
  13. At the moment I'm up to my slide rule in background research for Twilight Fifth Generation Nuclear Weapons, SciAm Nuclear Strategy in the Post Cold War World, USMA Press Raging Dragon, the Ascendence of China as a Superpower Jane's Fighting Ships, 2009 Military Satellites of the World
  14. I think that I have figured out what Carrie Prejean is really up to. She appeared on Sean Hannity's radio show and his TV show on Fox today. She is scheduled to make the rounds of right-wing talk shows. She is doing the rounds of the Right-Wingers crying about how mean those dirty old faggots are. I think she is making a move to become the Right Wing's pin-up girl. Expect to see her standing by tele-Evangelists and right-wing candidates and crying about how she was done in by the evil gay agenda (and not by running her mouth out of school). Organizations like Miss America and Miss California have long discussions about what their contestants can say on camera. They usually want to avoid controversy like the plague. Perez Hilton, a judge and part of the Miss California organization has made a big pucker of an asshole of himself. Rather than running his mouth, he should have let Prajean hang herself. By speaking against her, he has given her grounds to say that the organization was out to get me. Miss Prejean has known what she was doing from the start. I fear that we have played a part in creating a media monster that will turn around and bite us in the years to come.
  15. She agreed to represent the state, not run her mouth. Bu-bye.
  16. I have a story on my board where the main character recieves a magic item, a voo-doo candle in this case, that allows him to speak to his ghosts so that he can move on with his life. The visitation can only last as long as the candle can burn. It makes for a neat plot device and is loaded with symbolism. If I can make it work, you might see it sometime. There is a great ghost-story hosted here by Kip called Tappings that I suggest anyone check out. It's grate!
  17. Ermmm... it sure looks cool.
  18. Oops. I messed the eye candy requirement so... Jeff Beck and Tal Wilkenfeld Because We Ended As Lovers This is a better version with Jeff Beck and Eric Clapton tearing it the F- up
  19. Oh my goodness- this version is better than the original.
  20. Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty Baker Street Gerry Rafferty Winding your way down on Baker Street Light in your head and dead on your feet Well another crazy day, you
  21. I don't believe in the supernatural so ghosts and spooks and vampires don't really do much for me. Halloween and Nightmare on Elm STreet just piss me off: it's a waste of cute teenagers and there aren't enough of those to go around as it is. I just can't suspend disbelief for these movies to do their thing and I just end up laughing at them. NOw- the things that do scare me are the things with one foot in reality: give me a plausable monster and we're off and running. The Alien movies were great. They showed what would happen if the pinicle of some alien ecology had been reached by a parasite. That's some scary biology for any geek. Parasites are so common in nature and destructive to their host. The idea of being an incubator for an Alien and having that thing pop out of you has got to have caused many, many nightmares.
  22. I am not. I am still so shocked at being told that I'm no better than the Taliban or that I need an alibi for Matthew Shepherd's murder that I am not sure what to do. If anyone has literally bleed for our cause it is me. If anyone has had to break through barriers, it is me. If anyone knows what it's like to live amoung slack-jawed religious fanatics, it is me. I've got every right to be pissed.
