Star Whores

Here's the NSFW trailer for Kevin Smith's new movie, Zack and Miri Make A Porno.

Reality check.

This story on CNN highlights the incredible ignorance of the "Religious Right".  Fucking idiots...applauding the Palin family for having the moral fortitude to support their teenage daughters decision to have her child.  

First of all, is anyone out their delusional enough to think that this girl had any say in the matter what so ever?  My greatest hope is that she got pregnant intentionally to fuck with her mother's political career.

Second, still believe abstinance is a viable solution to teenage pregnancy?  I can't wait to hear the word "abstinance" pass through Sarah Palins lips....

Third, Conservative Christian groups are seriously going to use the child of a couple that made at least $200,000 last year as an example of the best solution for teenage pregnancy?  That should be an inspiration to all the poor pregnant teenage girls living in the inner city with parents that don't make anything near $200,000.  Oh well, God will provide right?

I'm glad you've created your own reality based on your religion but the rest of us have to live in the real world.

Bling.

So Google dropped a bomb on the Internet yesterday in the form of a new browser called Chrome.  I've been playing with it, in fact I'm using it while I compose this post, and I've developed some early opinions on it.

• It looks great, very clean and simple user interface.
• The "start" page is brilliant.  It show your bookmarks and your most frequently visited sites right there where they always should have been.
• Low memory usage and it's fast.  It's using a ton less memory than Firefox 3 but its not much faster.
• Incognito Mode!  This mode allows you to browse without the browser caching anything or storing any history of where you've been browsing....in other words, best porn browser ever.
• It's not quite stable yet, typical Google "beta".
• I'm not wild about how it handles bookmarks other than the "start" page stuff.

Everyone is freaking out thinking that this going to hurt Firefox's market share of the browser market.  It's good enough and it may very well cost FF some users but it still lacks Firefox's greatest asset...plugins.  I'll use Chrome but without the plugins I use EVERY DAY within Firefox it will only be a novelty.  The real reason Chorme exists is to prepare users for Google's forthcoming "Android" mobile platform.

Another celebrity death, they always go in threes you know.


What's your twenty Snowman? The Snowman is watching out for Smokeys in heaven now...

RIP...Jerry Reed.



Here's some fun CB slang that will bring you closer to understanding Smokey and The Bandit. Eventually you MAY work up to watching Convoy...but don't rush it.

Rest in Peace

Farewell to "The Voice", Don LaFontaine.

Who's in charge?

Who's really in charge of making policy for the Republican Party? Is Sarah Palin being forced onto John McCain for his "moderate" stance on things the Republican Party holds near and dear? She is about as right-wing as you can get and has supposedly been chosen to appease the ultra conservative far right side of The Party.

The problem is that she's fucking poison. She's WAY to right wing for even the Republican Party and the only reason she's even in Politics is because of the weird social vacuum that is Alaska. So again I ask, who's really in charge of the Republican Party these days?

The Republicans have spent the last 28 years pushing the whole "trickle down" theory of economic prosperity. The first problem with that is that it appears that once rich people get even richer they are perfectly satisfied sitting at home on a pile of money eating grapes. The second problem is that the in a Democracy power is shared by everyone and not just the people with the money...which may not be true anymore if the past eight years are any indication.

Is McCain really not fit to even be running for President let alone actual hold the office?

What the hell has happened to the Republicans?

I want your baby.

The hits keep on coming with Alaska Governor and McCain VP pick, Sarah Palin. The latest dirt is that her youngest son, Trigg, is really the son of Palin's 17 year old daughter. Oops.

The major media web sites seem to be avoiding this story so maybe there's nothing to it but the information on the web points to a really piss poor attempt by the Palins to cover this up. What does this say about McCain and the ability of his staff to pick a viable VP? This is what you get when you try to pick someone that is "outside of the box".

UPDATE: Just because they are now admitting that the daughter is CURRENTLY pregnant doesn't dismiss the oddities surrounding the mother's supposed pregnancy. Sounds like abstinence hasn't been such an effective method of birth control in this instance....LOL!

Don't make me hit you again.

Apple fans are a lot like battered wives. No matter how many times Apple drinks a quart of Jack Daniels and shoves them down a flight of stairs they are still there in the morning making eggs and crying.

Please don't think I'm making fun of spousal abuse, it's a serious problem, and so is this crazed addiction that people have for over-hyped, sub-standard Apple products. Maybe we should have an intervention for them....no one can help until they admit that they have a problem.
