Links that I’m reading/watching/listening to/thinking about

  • Who could you take in a fight?

    Who could you take in a fight? I could take Eddie Vedder, especially since he gave such a wimpy-ass answer.

  • Valentine’s Gift Ideas

    As I know some of you are probably scrambling for appropriate Valentine’s Day gift ideas, I’ve got two here for you: boob pillows and nipple scarves. Just tryin’ to help you out…

  • Vizzini

    “You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is “Never get involved in a land war in Asia.” But only slightly less well known is this: “Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! AH HA HA HA! AH HA HA HA HA HA! AH HA HA HA—“

  • PCJM

    Wow! I got linked from Pop Culture Junk Mail on February 4. I can’t believe I missed that!

  • Shuttle Columbia

    I’ve always been a fan of political cartoons, and I found these ones commemorating the Columbia disaster very moving and powerful. It’s interesting to see how so many different artists around the world still centered on the same themes: parents and children, the shuttle as a constellation, the flag on the moon at half-mast, and the crew going home to heaven. I especially liked how many of them included a Star of David for Ilan Ramon, the Israeli astronaut. Definitely worth checking out…

  • Fabulous

    Gay Games“At a time when there is so much fear and danger, anger and destruction, this event represents an alternative vision for humanity.” Yes, the Gay Games have started in Sydney. I doubt I’ll go to watch any of the sporting competitions, but I’m really interested in some of the cultural events they’ve got scheduled. The highlight has to be Bea Arthur. When am I ever again gonna get the chance to see a Golden Girl? 🙂

  • Burn out

    Hey Dad! Check it out. This Beemer has an “easter egg” where – if you press the right combination of buttons – it’ll do an automatic burn out for you! How cool is that? (I’ve only ever done one unintentionally. <pride>It took me a while, but I can drive stick pretty well now.</pride>)

  • My name is Sue. How do you do?

    Did you know that the Johnny Cash song “A Boy Named Sue” was written by Shel Silverstein? I didn’t. Now I’m curious about his other adult stuff.

  • Too bloody dangerous

    You’ve all heard the urban legend about the Singaporean zookeeper who has to masturbate all the animals every day, right? Well apparently such activities are not all that far-fetched. Taronga Zoo here in Sydney has a male gorilla who isn’t producing any offspring. Recently zoo management proposed knocking him out and having one of the keepers “manually stimulate” him. Unsurprisingly, they all refused (“It was too bloody dangerous,” a zookeeper said last night. “What if he woke up?”) and it’s turned into a big industrial issue. So instead the poor guy is going to be subjected to something called “electro-ejaculation”. Where’s Binatang bin Goncang when you need him?

  • Ew.

    Hmmm. Sixty-eight bucks (Australian) for a pair of panties? I wonder if I could pass for a Japanese schoolgirl.
