Insulated Island
Despite outcry from his own party, George W. Bush is planning to turn over control of six major East Coast ports to a company in a country with established ties to terrorism. In Alito's first month, the Supreme Court is already paving the way to overturning Roe v. Wade. Men are trapped in a collapsed Mexican mine. Children are buried by a mudslide in the Philippines.
And what's got Hilton Head Island's undies in a bundle? Cracker Barrel's closin'.

If iPods are outlawed, only outlaws will have iPods
It's like the RIAA is trying to piss people off enough so they throw up their hands and go back to pirating music instead of paying to download it legally.
RIAA: Take the princess and her CDs to my ship.
Consumers: You said they'd be left on her iPod under my supervision.
RIAA: I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.
Consumers (under breath): This deal is getting worse all the time.
(Thanks to Morgan for the "This is funny" link.)

Poseur Central
I was going to write a long-winded rant about the place in Atlanta Deborah, Saraq and I stumbled upon Saturday night filled with halfwit hipster wannabes who pretended to impress each other with their inane philosophies on music, politics and life when all they really wanted to do was sell each other their crappy art. (Note to hipsters, a collection of travel-size toiletries is not fine art. It's spring cleaning.)
However, I got halfway through writing it up when I realized it would bore the bejeezus out of anyone who didn't experience it. It probably would have bored Deborah and Saraq as well. And now that I think back on it, I was pretty bored as I lived through it.
So instead I'm going to sit back and take in the first Daily Show to air after Dick Cheney shotgunned a man in the face. I suppose the vice president needed to update his resume.

As you can see, my young apprentice, your friends have failed
I know I haven't exactly been prolific as of late. There are so many things I could blame it on: winter doldrums, busy at work, writer's block indifference, too many movies and TV, the rain. But I'm going to blame it on you.
Yes, you. If you're reading this, that means you probably know me. Which means your interactions with me are fodder for this site. If you do something stupid, celebrate a major life milestone or do something I can make fun of via Photoshop, it ends up here. The recent lack of posts clearly means you people haven't done anything remotely interesting for me to blather on about.
I'd suggest you get busy before I get angry. You won't like me when I'm angry.
