That's a load of crap!

The headlines write themselves:
"...Dickinson, who makes his living in the cattle business, has an environmental problem on his hands that is vexing state officials: a 2,000-ton pile of burning cow manure."

And this gem, from the same article:
"...byproducts from the massive operation resulted in a dung pile measuring 100 feet long, 30 feet high and 50 feet wide""

Hey, if that statement resembles the company you work for, time to get a new job. :)

Quote of the day...

From Kim du Toit's blog....he's quite the conservative pro-gun blogger. One of the reason's I can't be a Liberal or Conservative....I relate a little to each group. Anyway, good quote from an article a reader sent to him. Funny AND true!
In Swiss shooting culture, a few accurate hits are superior to lots of "spray and pray" shots. Before World War I, a German general observing Swiss military maneuvers asked a Swiss militiaman what [he] would the Swiss do if a German army, twice the size of the Swiss militia, invaded. The militiaman responded, "Shoot twice and go home."

Pic of the day...

Yahoo just has the best photos. Check out the link...I'm to lazy to upload it. ;^p

Inauguration Day...

In case anyone missed the last 4 years....get ready for more of the same crap:

More from David Simpson's site. I hope the people who elected Bush get exactly what they deserve. Incompetent leadership. (Not that the Dems have put up anyone better to run the show). I should just move to Canada...no, too cold. France...no, they hate us. Ah, stuck here...I'll just push the Libertarian agenda as usual. Why people don't go for this, I'll never know. Is SELF-GOVERNING your own life bad? If politics is a game of power, than friggin' take it back! It's ours to begin with, by right.

I guess in a nation with people denying personal responsibility ever on the increase, it's just easier to let power-hungry political asshats run your life for you. You know, that's called "communism" for you kids out there. :^>

In the year 2000....

...anyone working a 25-hour week yet? Have you died of boredom? Check out this article from 1961. Interesting to see how some of it (living to 85+ years old) has come about, while other parts (walls of air) are way off. STILL don't have my TV phone. Or my hoverboard, dammit!

Darth Tater?

More from George "Merchandising-Whore" Lucas. Mr. Potato Head goes over to the Dark Side:

Update: Darth Tater makes the front page on CNN!

My eyes! The goggles! They do nothing!

From the blogosphere: Bill Gates Strikes a Pose for Teen Beat Photospread, circa 1983. Warning....shield your eyes unless you can handle extreme-geek-sexiness. x^p

Hey, I wasn't available for the photo shoot....I was only SEVEN at the time. Didn't learn BASIC until I was 12. Gimme a break.

Someone set us up the bomb....

Don't catch teh ghey:
The U.S. military rejected a 1994 proposal to develop an "aphrodisiac" to spur homosexual activity among enemy troops but is hard at work on other less-than-lethal weapons, defense officials said on Sunday.

"Hard at work"....heh. Full article if you're interested.

Remind me again...

...exactly how Bush got a 2nd term? If this is the future of our presidency, I'm thinking Schwarzenegger isn't looking too bad. Anyway, your quote of the day:
"Sometimes, words have consequences you don't intend them to mean," Bush said Thursday. "'Bring 'em on' is the classic example, when I was really trying to rally the troops and make it clear to them that I fully understood, you know, what a great job they were doing. And those words had an unintended consequence. It kind of, some interpreted it to be defiance in the face of danger. That certainly wasn't the case."

Translation: "I'm a wuss"

That's why they call him "Thumper"

HOLLYWOOD stunner Kate Beckinsale has given her daughter's randy rabbit to the family cleaning lady - because it wouldn't stop masturbating.

Full story. I can't say I wouldn't do the same thing if I had to sit in a cage and look at her all day, you know. ;^> Colorful comments abound on fark.com, as usual.

Early bird gets the worm...

...but this is ridiculous:
Jeff Twieden doesn't care that it's freezing outside. He's camping out in front of the Cinerama Theater in downtown Seattle, waiting for Episode Three to open. It's only 22 weeks away.

One problem. He's not even sure the movie theater will be SHOWING the damn thing. <sigh> Check out his ongoing blog, if you're bored.
