Before I go into my usual thing, I wanted to bring up a site for ya if you have some spare cash. The gamers over at Penny Arcade have put up a site called Child’s Play. Their goal is to get a bunch of toys and books purchased for the Seattle Children’s Hospital and to let people know that gamers aren’t a bunch of anti-social thugs. Head to the site, check it all out and get a toy for a child if you wish.

Can’t say I’ve necessarily been busy this past week or so, but time just flies by somehow. Anyway, it hasn’t been for lack of stuff to point and laugh at. Let’s begin:

You pretty much can figure out what I think our own current presidential administration. So it will be no surprise to you when Evil Ned sent us some instructions about Google and I laughed and laughed. Go to Google, type in the phrase “Miserable Failure” and click the “I’m Feeling Lucky” button. Basically that button leads to the most referenced and linked site related to your search term. In this case, its due to a Richard Gephardt quote and website. Not that I’ve woken up and become a Gephardt fan, but hey, it sure is a sign that we’ve got a presidential election coming, right?

Speaking of negative advertising, the GOP has already gone and starting calling anyone who questioned whether or not we should have gone into Iraq a “traitor”. Yes, that’s right, its now apparently treasonous behavior to even question your government’s motives. This from the same pack of imbeciles who want to replace FDR on the dime with Reagan. Last I checked, the whole country hadn’t become the Republican party.

Speaking of a bad combination of liberal political correctness and conservative “family values” nonsense, we have the following about a boy suspended from school for talking about his gay mom.

And now, idiots on parade. A Kansas couple gets too into the heat of the moment. Mind your tongue. Bubba lives in Illinois. A teacher ruins it for the kids.

Payback time. A backlash on the whole LA county “master/slave” thing from the tech-focused cartoon User Friendly. An in-yer-face response to the Britney Spears Hollywood star thing – give one to Alice Cooper as well. And just because I love the idea of public humiliation for low-lifes, Maine is putting up a website for all its registered child molestors so everyone can recognize those two-legged scumbags wherever they go.

Some leftovers for ya, being that time of year and all. How to spend $25,000 (AU) researching toast. A piece of technology the president can’t even operate is being tested for the battlefield. Plus, the return of Space Invaders.
