Music: the unwitting architect of evil
I love music. My 2-year-old daughter loves music, dancing with naive, precious abandon to almost anything we throw at her (personally, I think she’s going to be a drummer as every single drum break in any song causes an ecstasy of butt-wiggling and head-nodding). But that doesn’t mean there isn’t a dark side. I have [...]
Google Earth Causes Aneurysms
If you have not downloaded Google Earth yet you are missing out on possibly the coolest, most useful bit of geographic exploring software ever. They’ve combined the Google Maps functionality with satellite and topographic data from their Keyhole acquisition to make the most compelling piece of software of its kind. Here’s an example of some [...]
“It eclipses the very SUN!”
My friends are sources of great humor. Javahead hadn’t seen the new satellite imagery at Google Maps yet. I informed him of it via ICQ. His response: [15:24] Javahead: you can always tell when someone google’s your address by the GIANT FLOATING BUBBLE above your house.
Inadvertant Netflix Humor for April 4, erm, 5th
Yeah, so it’s Tuesday and not Monday and I missed last week to boot. That’s fine though, Netflix is still there waiting for me like an old friend with particularly poor taste in film.

Inadvertant Netflix Humor for March 21st
Brought to you by Netflix, increasingly overpriced in relation to its competitors but still strangely compelling. New releases you just can’t miss for the week of March 21st through March 28th. Space Pirate Mito - I’d quote the teaser paragraph if it weren’t quite as ludicrous as it is. Hell, this sentence summarizes quite well: “Mito, [...]
More Inadvertant Netflix Humor
Again, from the Netflix New Releases This Week: Matango: Attack of the Mushroom People - This would likely be my top choice of flick to watch while being crushed by a hydraulic press or while being devoured by marmosets. Dial D for Demons - Dial “P” for “Putrid.” Bad Girls from Mars - Perhaps they were hiding behind [...]
Inadvertent Netflix humor
Netflix New Releases This Week (from the actual feed). “Bellydance: The Art of the Drum Solo” - now that’s what I’m talking about. “Really Really Pimpin’ in Da South” - it ain’t pimpin’ unless it’s got “da” in it. “Mike and the Mechanics & Paul Carrack: Live at Shepherds Bush London” - kill me now. “Fat Spy” - Why [...]
That’s customer service
An old woman is upset at her husband’s funeral. “You have him in a brown suit and I wanted him in a blue suit.” The mortician says “We’ll take care of it, ma’am” and yells back “Ed, switch the heads on two and four!” Many more where that came from.
