Indo Jew Bowl
I'm proud to be from this neck of the prairie (my piano lessons were in Skokie). Ordered me a "Jew Style Gold" shirt. Go football-playing Jews!
Epsilon!!!
We've made it to epsilon. Is it too early to wonder what happens when we run out of greek letters?

Well I'll be.
I distinctly remember back in like 1992 when I finally got my ole 386 25MHz box really humming, sorting out all the DOS 6.0 TCPIP stack issues and getting my newsreader, email, ftp, and I think even gopher client working smoothly, and I decided to start working with WinSock in Windows 2.0 and everything got fouled up again.
Relive DOS.

don't die without seeing Britannica Boy naked
as you can on his blog, hosted on blogger. not safe for work, i suppose. in addition to being naked, donavan himself is quite the porn aficionado.
to think that anchorbutt might be mere nanometers away from the hard disk storage of 80's reference shill Donavan Freberg's vanity blog(s)... it makes you wonder.
oh, apparently there was somebody with an EverQuest character named something-something Anchorbutt in 2004. he was an elf. and a cleric.

Some London students are in for a cold but secure winter: hoods and scarves are not allowed. What's next? Don't wear gloves so we can see your fingerprints?

Britney Spears on her album "In The Zone", as interviewed by Newsweek and published Monday, Oct. 27, 2003:
When Spears talks about the South Asian musical influences on "In the Zone," she says she's "been into a lot of Indian spiritual religions." When asked if one of them is Hinduism, she says, "What's that? Is it like abbalah?"
counterpoint
Shakira, discussing her recent album "Oral Fixation, Vol. 2", in the New York Times, Sunday, Nov. 13, 2005:"I've always felt that I've been a very oral person. It's my biggest source of pleasure. From a psychoanalytical point of view, we start discovering the world through our mouths in the very first stage of our lives, when we're just born. The first album cover is more Freudian, and the second one more resembles Jung, because Eve is a universal archetype. I tried to keep a unity between the two album covers, and I chose to use some Renaissance iconography. Mother and child and original sin are recurrent concepts of the Renaissance period, and I wanted the historical character."

I placed in a famous Bad Poetry Contest
I haven't had much time for uselessness in the last few weeks. It all came tumbling out in one crazy night of bad poetry, in a contest named for Alfred Joyce Kilmer.

We're torturing everyone with unintentionally funny headlines, too.

How's this for gross?
Ants eat away woman's eye in Indian hospital.
I would make a pun based on the fact that iatrogenic sounds like Eye-ant-rogenic, but nobody would get it, so I won't bother.

How is possible
... that the only online references to the culinary cudgel that is the Spoto Burger seem to originate from Canadia?
Write-only DB
MySQL has a feature that allows you to send your data into a black hole, where it can never be retrieved again. (Turns out to be slightly more useful than it sounds.)

What do you guys think about the issue of using closed-source equipment to determine if somebody committed a crime? I can see slippery slopes on both sides of this issue.

To the moon, Alice!
Your wife decides to go out with her friends drinking and dancing....
You're okay with it, because you get to watch sports all night....
You hear her stumble into bed around 4 and laugh knowing she's going to have a monster hangover....
You wake up next morning and go outside to the family Volvo, which she used last night....
You sigh in relief because it's all in one piece....
You circle the car looking for dents and find none....but wait a minute.
