File Under: New Paradigm


Tonight whilst killing time on my computer, I summoned up my DirecTV guide. As I flipped thru the channels I stumbled across a channel that had one of those "Boycott satellite Taxes in North Carolina!!" length names.. It's the Google Channel, y'alls..From the Internets!! Actually, it's pretty fucking sweet, in my humble opinion. They do these cute flashbacks for the +21 viewer that is like the opening for a Sunday night Charlie Brown or Battle of the Network Stars special, and runs a computer related story from like 1981..
AndsinceI'vefounditI'vewatchedviewercreatedvideosonDafursuicidein
JapanandFemaleEggDonation. No joke.
Okay, so expect to see from now on, many more references to this new supplier. Like when you find a new connection, and it's really sweet.

Shape of things to come

After having this machine for almost 6 months, I've finally sorted out the TV tuner built in. Now, add 300+ channels from satelite, and I can become to TV what Gene Shalit is to movies... Just some teasers on the content I've recorded and *could* share if i were feeling nice:


大いちょう o-ichou on sumo wrestler


Al Roker talking with an obvious expert how to avoid bear attacks in the woods..I'm not kidding. She's wearing suede pants for fucks' sake.


This is sweet -- Normal Fell/Mister Roper talking to Cleopatra Jones.


Except for that stupid sumo documentary bullshit, who says TV is garbage?

File Under: Waste of a Domain

A typical morning - I rouse, make coffee, then settle in to read the news and whatnot. I come across this drivel and click-thru to hit the primary source -- Concerned Women of America..Jokers, I say. It's funny because I think I know many many concerned women in America and none of them hold beliefs in line with this charade of an organization. These "women" are boycotting Starbucks (no problem there) because the company "funds and promotes homosexual activism".
Ladies, I can only throw out a "what the fuck??" to that.

Check out the About page of their mangy website:

CWA is built on prayer and action. (HAHAHA Like the Greatest American Hero..No wait, he flew on a wing & a prayer)

We are the nation's largest public policy women's organization with a rich 25-year history of helping our members across the country bring Biblical principles
into all levels of public policy.

Now last time I checked, ladies, this nation is built on the notion that your Biblical principles remain separate from PUBLIC POLICY. It almost makes me wish I'd see the day when all these Ambrosia-toting, Veggie-Tales reading bitches have to bow before Koranic (?) principles melded into public policy.

And the icing on the cake with this group -- the head of their PR dept. is a dude.
Stupid people with a microphone would be amusing if the hubris wasn't so great.
