I would like to be as sophisticated as Chris, and as brief, but I can’t. So I’ll start with “AAAaargh!” I understand that the Vatican is all about tradition. I understand that homosexuality is a touchy subject for them, especially as it’s turning out that many “celibate” priests are not, and at the expense of [...]

See, the thing is, I find weird stuff out there. And then I want to share it for some unknown reason. And my current obsession is with Pirates of the Caribbean. So I took a test to find out which of the characters’ unhealthy fetishes I am. And… As it turns out…
You are….
Ragetti’s dress fetish. [...]

Back in 1995, I went to France for the first time, all by my lonesome. I was there for three weeks and was terribly homesick. Near the end of my voyage I treated myself to a day at Disneyland Paris. It was great, but what I really loved were the restrooms on Main St. [...]

It looks like the Bush administration (specifically Paul Wolfowitz) is shifting its justification for occupation of Iraq to a more September 11th-related story. I really do hope the American people are smarter than the administration assumes.
It’s probably time to read the PNAC primer written by Bernard Weiner. I’ve mentioned the Project for a [...]

Just in time to fill in for Corbin Motors, a new car company in Spokane has started producing the Tango, a half-lane 2-seater electric vehicle that gets 80 miles per charge and has a top speed of 130 mph. The Seattle Times has a great story about the car’s development. It looks like the [...]

Here’s something random: a person who categorized everything he ate by calorie content, then compiled a sorted list with pictures. It’s worth reading for the bizarre meal choices (like hot dog water) and humorous notes on each meal, like:
Coke (without ice) contains 1,493 kilocalories per gallon, Gasoline (without ice) contains 31,000 kilocalories per gallon, so [...]

I usually don’t ask you to do much. This site is more of an ongoing rant than an attempt at persuasion. However, if you’re concerned about the intelligence that was presented in support of going to war with Iraq, please consider signing MoveOn’s petitiion to support an independent investigation into WMD evidence.
Online petitions usually [...]
