Flopping Malls

A couple weeks ago I found myself out of town with a couple hours to kill and a baby on board. After spending as much time as possible at the local electronics store (Fry’s, the Toys R’ Us for Us grownups), I had to think back to my wonder years. What did I used to [...]

When “Shorn Scrotum” is Too Subtle for A Corporate Website

I remember watching a “bloopers” porno with a roommate, and it featured Ron Jeremy getting shaved from head to toe. Now if you’ve ever seen Ron, they do not call him “the hedgehog” for nothing. Watching him walk around clothed only in a layer of shaving cream reminded me of nightmares I had as a [...]

Torture? In A Nutshell

“Water-boarding is torture… It’s drowning. It gives you the complete sensation that you are drowning. It is no good, because you — I’ll put it to you this way; you give me a water board, Dick Cheney and one hour, and I’ll have him confess to the Sharon Tate murders.”
– Former Governor Jesse Ventura, an [...]

My SPAM Filter – Stupid Like a Fox?

My email SPAM filter (is that even supposed to be in all caps?) is generally pretty good. Except it lets through emails with “SPAM” in the subject line. I get a bout 10 email a day with headings like “SPAM girls like dicks big” and “Why SPAM Are You Not SPAM Rich you worthless SPAM [...]

No Such Thing as a Free Internet or Fans of Hugs

I must say something about hugs. I can’t really buy into becoming a “fan” of hugs. First of all, it is too all-inclusive. Who would admit to not liking hugs? It’s like being a fan of winning World War II. Second, and my main gripe, is that it is not specific enough. Now if you [...]

Honorable? Selfish? Cowardly? Pick One

Musings prompted by the recent Freddie Mac CFO suicide.
Thraxxus and I sometimes talk about a big difference between American and foreign businessmen – the latter’s propensity to commit suicide in the wake of infamous failure. Whether they are businessmen of China, Japan, or Korea, those industry leaders seem to have a lower tolerance for professional [...]

Quote of the Day

“If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on [...]
