self explanitory

go to PETA's website then to this site...there's some really funny hatemail there.


made me think of this quote from So I Married an Axe Murderer:

Stuart Mackenzie: Well, it's a well known fact, Sonny Jim, that there's a secret society of the five wealthiest people in the world, known as the Pentavirate, who run everything in the world, including the newspapers, and meet tri-annually at a secret country mansion in Colorado, known as The Meadows.
Tony Giardino: So who's in this Pentavirate?
Stuart Mackenzie: The Queen, the Vatican, the Gettys, the Rothschilds, and Colonel Sanders before he went tets-up. Oh, I hated the Colonel with is wee beady eyes! And that smug look on his face, "Oh, you're gonna buy my chicken! Ohhhhh!"
Charlie Mackenzie: Dad, how can you hate the Colonel?
Stuart Mackenzie: Because he puts an addictive chemical in his chicken that makes ya crave it fortnightly, smartarse!
Charlie Mackenzie: Coo-coo.

I think Chris had the quiz on this site linked a while ago, but these are summaries of the positions of each candidate . If you got time, you can spend quite a bit of it here. Scrolling down to the bottom provides a nice little summary if you don't have time to read all the specifics.

credit hog

I was working on this computer just now, installing a driver for a USB NIC that needed to be used in order for that computer to get updates, since the computer didn't have a built in ethernet jack. Since this was Windows 2000, the driver was not in the built in Windows driver database so I had to find it online. I got the wrong one the first time, but the second time it was the right one. Then I had to install WinZip so that Windows could unzip the driver folder that I had just copied to the desktop. Once I unzipped the driver folder that I copied onto that computer, Windows tried installing it but couldn't find the driver. So I had to point Windows to the folder where the driver was. Once it saw the driver, the process continued when Windows popped up with a box that said "Windows has finished installing the device". Windows installed it? Yeah right, it just wants to take the credit.

This is why other countries make fun of us....

"Vaughn's lawsuit... says Imus and his former co-host Bernard McGuirk along with CBS Corp., CBS Radio, MSNBC and other media outlets that broadcast his show are legally responsible for damage done to her character and reputation.

Vaughn's attorney, Richard Ancowitz, said, "The full effect of the damage remains to be seen...
This is about Kia Vaughn's good name," Ancowitz said. "She would do anything to return to her life as a student and respected basketball player -- a more simple life before Imus opened his mouth."

Imus referred to the basketball players as "nappy-headed hos" on his nationally syndicated radio program April 4 and became the target of heated protests led by the Rev. Al Sharpton."

Now here's a holiday....

"Russians get day off to procreate, then win prizes"

"Moscow - A Russian region of Ulyanovsk has found a novel way to fight the nation's birth-rate crisis: It has declared Sept. 12 the Day of Conception and for the third year running is giving couples time off from work to procreate.
The hope is for a brood of babies exactly nine months later on Russia's national day. Couples who "give birth to a patriot" during the June 12 festivities win money, cars, refrigerators and other prizes."
