Must’ve Been Bad Karma

In yet another example of the perverse sense of humor of the universe, an Indiana Wiccan stabbed herself in the foot with a sword while conducting a good-luck ritual.
MSNBC shares with us the story of Katherine Gunther, of Lebanon, IN. While performing the ceremony under the light of a full moon1 in a cemetery — […]

Calorie Lab Posts Lies, Defends Itself by Attacking the Messenger

“Calorie Lab” is a website that ordinarily publishes more or less useful commentary on diets and diet plans, generally skewing to the reality-based side, but this last week they published a very credulous workup of Stanley Burroughs and his “cleanse” diet plan here.
The article presents the diet in a more or less legitimate sounding light […]

Grandmother of Dr. Who

Or not, perhaps. Delia Derbyshire was apparently responsible for the mix of Ron Grainer’s Dr. Who theme in 1963, but damn, she did some other innovative, amazing work in the analog era.
Hit this link and listen to her piece under the ‘Timeless’ header; or just hit this.
That was last week, right?

On the Quantity of Methane in Unicorn Emissions

Yes, another reply to a riposte from James Lileks of the Minnesota Star-Tribune. If it keeps up at this rate I might have to add another category.
Thursday he was in rare form, and opened with a nice salvo:
Another day in the Land of Inversion, where the obvious is not an option. I heard more interviews […]

BREAKING: Black Man Refers to Blacks as ‘Niggers’

Oh, those terrible liberals and their too-free plays on words. Fox News, the leader in unbiased nonslanted Actual Journalism, reported that while Jesse Jackson was saying he wanted to cut off Barack Obama’s nuts, he also used the other n-word when referring to negroid negro dark black people.
The horror, the horror of it all! Damn […]

In Which I (re)discover New Order

It’s surprising sometimes what you can lapse. Remember Bomb Pops? The red-white-blue multi-veined popsicles peddled from the back of the ice cream truck?
Well, okay, maybe not — and this isn’t a post about childhood nostalgia nor longing for the Days of Old When Things Were So Much Better, gag.
Several months ago I began re-ripping my […]

Complicated Men want a Salad.

It was the title on the post that got me.
“What Men Really Want for Father’s Day”
It’s pretty simple. Men aren’t complex. For birthdays, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Passover, we all want basically the same thing.
What baffles me, at least, is why this clear desire is sublimated into political agendas, subterfuge and chaos.
What do men really want for […]

GM: Hyuk Hyuk, we’s Stoooooooopid!

There doesn’t seem to be a lot of comment on the fact that Gm has announced a shutdown of four plants; the facilities were producing trucks and SUVs, and only an inbred cretin like Bush could possibly be surprised at the news “news” that big fat-assed gas pigging vehicles are not what we want or […]

A Cavalcade of the Clueless

One of the problems about the claim of the US being “the lone superpower” is that the claim is patently false. While it’s true we’ve got a hell of a lot of nukes, what we don’t have is an infrastructure to speak of (focusing our entire economy on service and nonskilled labor for the last […]

Good? Definitely. But … but what if your kink is a para or quad … and science, not caring at all, just up and refixes the situation in, say, 2021 or so?

The Difference of Twenty-Four Hours

I’d like to take credit for this, but I can’t. Las Vegas didn’t make their smog go away overnight because I advised them to do so yesterday.

The real cause? Twenty-four hours of steady southwesterly wind, approximately 20 MPH, with gusts to 40.
It will be back, though.

Dumping Pandagon

Ordinarily I don’t mention when I un-roll another blog, but I thought I should go into why I’m not following Pandagon any more.
The warning signs came a few months ago when Amanda was still pushing for Edwards. At one point in an entry, she was dispensing advice on how to affect primaries so Edwards would […]

Hymenoplasty is a procedure used to surgically re-create the hymen in a woman’s vagina. Muslim women in Europe are undertaking the procedure in order to circumvent their religion’s idiocy regarding virginity.

While I’ll agree that it’s no one’s business whether a woman is a virgin or not, if there’s a surgery which can be used to shoot even a small hole in small-minded bronze-age hocus-pocus, I’m all for it.

Apparently someone rustled up enough cash to take out a hit on Kevin Federline. It’s amazing what the pennies that fall between the couch cushions can accomplish, isn’t it?
