Do you think...
...this jibes with your world? Doesn't this mean there would be a new famous person in your life every day (on average)?

I could watch this all day
"I had some spare time so I recently joined PETA. My first assignment was to save a small antelope in Africa, and the rescue was filmed to critique my effort. Let me know what you think."

Preshrunk: Come See Iraq
This is a funny shirt. It perfectly recreates the feel of those annoying Florida tourism t-shirts.
Farty McTootlepants, mark II
OK folks, she's here: Grace Lorraine Allen, born June 16 (_not_ July 16, as I originally posted); 8 lbs, 2 oz; 20 1/4 inches long. (Updated with better link, click the post title.)
HRWiki is teh roxxor
STRONG BAD: Um... no. I don't really have any interest in invading my own—
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ten-hut! Draft dodger, eh? We'll see if those trees you're always hugging save you when Gordon Lightfoot's creeping round your back stair. Company... Halt! Backwards... March! 
BTW: New Teen Girl Squad today.
Tune in Tonight
Don't forget to tune in to Dial-A-Dork tonight, 9pm 1300AM if you're in Cleveland or on the web at the icecast location. Or, listen tomorrow by download.
This just in...
russ belongs to more bizarre niche groups then anyone else, notably the one of eight people (currently) in the continental US who knows who Serge Gainsbourg is, and the one of 12 people that saw Naked in New York in the theater. The previous holder of this dubious distinction was our own Ryan Leaf, who owns a jumpsuit, but not a pacemaker
Film Reco
I recently grabbed Primer off of Pay-Per-View (incidentally, DirecTivo + PPV = no more trips to the video store, as you can record your movie choice and watch it later, all for $3.99, which might be double a rental but there really are no late fees -- as I can testify because I've had Ray downloaded since ferrevah and still haven't watched it).
Interesting little movie, I believe it just came out on DVD. See if you can get your hands on it. It's a sci-fi time travel reality play in a very ordinary current day setting. It is somewhat-to-fairly confusing. And it's pretty watchable, for a movie that cost seven Gs to make.
Since I'm one of...
about eight people (currently) in the continental US who knows who Serge Gainsbourg is, I offer this wacky clip of him making a bumbling pass at Whitney Houston.
O, I wanna dance with some-body.

Signs of Strength and Frailty
Mario is a hero in the classic archetypal style. Bowser is clearly Mario's estranged father, against whom Mario must struggle for his own atonement, in order that he may eventually transcend his father's greatness and embark upon the apotheosis to godhood. Since we’re dealing with classic archetypes, wherein only the males are worth a damn, the Princess clearly should have known better than to go out into the world with a vagina unprotected by a husband. Her folly distracts Mario from his true goal of sitting around all day, eating magic mushrooms, and having sex with Toad.

Mütter Museum
Seems like a lot of our readers are from Philadelphia. That makes me remember the time I went to visit the Mütter Museum and sent back the post card of the guy's colon who couldn't poo.
Administrivia
The skyrocketing readership and frequency of postings on Anchorbutt has prompted me to make some tweaks to the page layout.
Here is a summary of the changes:
- bumped the number of posts from 32 to 64 so that they don't fall off the bottom as fast
- removed the "previous posts" section from the side bar, since that's pointless
- switched the archive frequency from monthly to weekly
Not that anybody probably cares.
Also, if you're one of the roughly one-third of the readers who is hitting the site with Internet Explorer, be cool and upgrade to Firefox.
BTW, if you like the graphs in this post, you can find more of them by clicking the "site meter" button down at the bottom of this page.

Ok, readers...
...how did you find us? Tell us in the comments.
I'm going to feel really sad if the answers are all "so-and-so poster told me to read it."
And cause I'm supposed to, here's something dumb to catch your interest:
Karate Kid
The this kid has a sweet mullet. (posted here since the Minimalist blog has no comments section)
Separated at birth?
The jumpsuited one observes a tabbish similarity between the Power Panther site and the site of a certain software company.
Scavenger hunt! Who can find other such tabs on a web site? (No fair creating your own web site with colorful tabs just to score points.)
I opine that aloof != cool
If the only reason you're doing something is because everybody else does it, well that's pretty lame. But if the only reason you're not doing something is because everybody else does it, well, then that's lame too.
Discuss...
This one goes out to...
...Mani. In all its preserved glory.
In other news, I was not really cognisant of the fact that Weird Science was a John Hughes movie. Weird. Another classic Bill Paxton role, tho.
Product Review: Market Pantry Diet Cola
It's what I'm squeezing now.
I went to Target yesterday and picked up a 12-pack of store-brand diet cola for $1.99. Seemed like a good deal.
The can says "Save on every sip of soda. Each Market Pantry flavor delivers great taste for less". Geez, this stuff is awful. If "hardly anything" had a taste, it would be this, and if overcarbonation is a word, it applies to this soda!
DIY corpses
If that "Girls and Corpses" magazine caught your eye, here's how you can make corpse replicas from unwanted poultry. Don't know how you're going to make your own girls. Maybe someone else can blog that.
Yes, I know you already saw it on BoingBoing. Dag, yo. Blogging just isn't fun anymore, because by the time you get around to blogging something, it's already been on BoingBoing.

Atom / Blogger observation
I'm not very Atom savvy, and I am not certain how blogger constructs its feed, but all of the content entries are not formatted the same way. Content entered through the blogger interface shows up with the html escaped. Entries made from a third party interface, like the Firefox BlogThis plug-in show up with the html unescaped. This seems to impact how some feed aggregators interpret images.
Super-awesome internet radio
WOXY used to be a Cincinnati FM station, but now it is internet-only. I've been listening to it for a couple of days . . . I haven't heard any drivel yet, and have heard from quite a few off-the-beaten path artists that I like. Robyn Hitchcock is playing right now.
Sitemeter Added
I dropped a site meter link on the bottom of the page. Feel free to click on it and see what kind of traffic we're getting.
