My Kind of Class

29. January 2009

1 Comment

UC Berkley is now offering a Starcraft class. Where do I sign up? BTW I do still play this game, but prefer Total Annihiliation. After you read the article, check out the comments, they are classic. Thanks to Karzack for this article reference. Good show!

The Cutting Edge

28. January 2009

1 Comment

I am alwys amused when I find out that something that I have been doing for a while, or researching on my own, has, unbeknownst to me, and with nothing to do with me, become a movement. A few years back I started buying meat in large quantities because it is cheaper like that and [...]

What’s Next!?!

28. January 2009

Americans take their pets very seriously. Ridiculously so in my opinion. Trust me. I have pets and my wife and I have spent so much money on them to keep them well that we could have paid for two round-the-world travels packages for less. Our cat, Bailey, we now refer to as Bailey Billions because [...]

The Epitome of Rock Gods

27. January 2009

0 Comments

I’m not one of those music romantics. I don’t believe in music as some kind of powerful healing force that can topple walls or make even the most hardened criminal gooey inside. But sometimes a time, a place, and a song just coincides with a force to move. This is one of those events: Even if [...]

Actor Interviews

27. January 2009

0 Comments

This is easily one of the best interviews of an actor, or in this case six, that I have ever read. I wish I could have seen it on film. No matter what anyone says, Pitt and Downey Jr. are funny as hell to me. Oh and Rourke is a god, a jacked up surgically [...]

Bugs Bunny – Adults Only?

26. January 2009

0 Comments

I was always a big fan of Warner Bros. Cartoons. I had read before that the cartoons, and moreover the scripts, were much more focussed at adults that most people realized. Well I dug this tid bit up and felt you might enjoy it. The original post can be found here on squidge.org. This is the [...]

Preconceived Bullplop Regarding the Automotive Industry

23. January 2009

2 Comments

Disclaimer: Yes, I am talking about cars again. The Detroit Three on life support is a once-in-a-lifetime scenario, and can not be overstated. Imagine if Microsoft suddenly goes belly-up in 75 years and goes crawling to whatever black, lesbian, quadriplegic transsexual is running this country for a loan. “We could not predict that Red Hat Siamese [...]

Google Drive

Read this. You combine that with the announcement that Google is taking Google Docs offline so that you may use Google Docs when not logged into the web and you get this: Owning a Netbook (which I just bought one) makes a lot more sense. I am now the proud owner of an Acer Aspire [...]

Too Bad Their Burgers are Half as Good

20. January 2009

Like everyone else with a mute button and/or a DVR, I avoid TV commercials at all costs. Generally, after all these years they continue to suckle at the teat of Pandering and Tedium. However, I admire creative advertising – even if I cannot relate. Case in point, this Burger King web campaign. Ditch your Facebook [...]

The corporate site for this dream job is here. It turns out that the company received so many applicants that for a while there their site was down. Rumor has it something like two thousand video applicants were sent in almost over night. Suffice it to say you have about as much chace of getting that job [...]

The World Today

If you really believe that the United States of America is above ridiculous levels of parental douchebaggery, well, you are wrong, blind, mis-informed, and just might be the guy the rest of us are scared of. Examples!! First we have this idiot who is upset that the guy he sold his 14 year old daughter to didn’t [...]

Mark Eaton Would be Flabbergasted!

I have been rejected – nay, denied! – from playing in this local basketball league. What is this motherfuckery, you ask? Well apparently you must have all Asians on your team in specific divisions where my friends want to play. The DreamLeague website offers me no explanations in the FAQ or rules and regulations. However, [...]

Interweb is a mysterious place.

Obviously we have a blog, you are reading it now, well hopefully. The weird part is that people can leave comments on  our blog, which we moderate, about practically anything. We receive comments as well as links, spam, linkbacks and other oddities. What gets me is just how much crap exists on the web now, [...]

Ann Coulter: Somewhat, Maybe, Vaguely, Ever So Slightly Correct

8. January 2009

I’m going to throw out a word I do not use often. Actually, I can’t remember the last time I used the word “cunt”. Sorry if I offend, but if anyone is deserving of the word it is Mrs. Coulter. I would link you to her interviews for her new book but I’m hoping if [...]

We start with this article. I don’t want to go over how angry that article makes me, I think it is self explanatory. I will, however, show you Will Smith’s perspective on the same subject, with a different spin. I would normally imbed the video from youtube, but it was requested to not be imbedded elsewhere, [...]
