I Hate Horses - I am shaking right now because I hate horses so much. I hate them the way that fat people hate diets, the way that lazy people hate work, the way that Jewish people hate Hitler, the way black people hate white people. I REALLY HATE THEM!!

Friggin' awesome. So as a keyhole subscriber I get Google earth PLUS (for an additional year to boot!) but you my fine friends can get google earth for free! It should be super duper awesome like keyhole was only googlefied and therefore much better (plus a lot free-er).
Enjoy...

Where the White Women at? My honey wrote a post on his weblog that was produced on NPR's "On the Media". It's called "Where the White Women at?" and it's funny.

Playstation Thumb I'm obviously in the wrong field as I have yet to be published. Maybe I'll switch my research to "cubicle butt syndrome"
It's a Liger - it's pretty much my favorite animal.
If you can't watch the movie, this picture on flickr sums it up. The decision to take my VCR over to Flip's house and replace the tapes every weekend keeps getting closer to reality...
And speaking of unborn children. Reminds me of that crazy aunt in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding." Hopa!

Fatal shark attack just down the beach a few miles from where Tina and I went on vacation and I swam with dolphins about a month ago. I should note that I saw a shark from our 15th floor hotel room when I was there but it was frightened off when a person fell off a float and made a splash.
Thanks for the link Dave...
I've been waiting to see the Round Rock Express for years now and I think today should be the day. We'll see how good AE is as an invitation device with only 8 hours of lead time. They're playing the Albuquerque Isotopes starting at 7:05pm, berm tickets are $5, and the first 3,000 people get an Andy Pettitte bobblehead (hopefully complete with rakish stubble).
Anybody want to car pool?

Hey moderators, is there any way you can make it so that the default action of a link is to open a new screen? I mean, phpBB does that and I like that so you should do that if you want.
Wakesurfing, including why you shouldn't do it behind a boat with an outboard motor. It's not that interesting but I need to get my post count up.

From a recent email by MrFlip, developement of the Rotary Cell Phone has been making substantial progress in the past six months. This fantastic gadget has been discussed previously.
... and this little piggy received a 1/16" deep cut Meet SawStop, a table saw with an innovative safety mechanism. It senses the capacitive and conductive difference between wood and human flesh to determine when to brake the saw, which it can do within 5 ms. At least it seems to work with hot dogs. [more inside]

You'd think that they wouldn't need writers on reality shows, right? If something happens, it happens, and if not then you're screwed. Except...
"Sometimes [telling a story] is merely challenging. Other times it is like making a fish taco out of used motor oil and a popular novel. The average day for most reality TV writers would make an amateur storyteller light his or her own face on fire and put it out with a rake."
They're here, they're unionized, get used to it.

Krumping
(aka Clown Dancing) is, they say, a new dance form invented by Shakes Tommy the Clown and poised to bust out of its South Central roots. This article is so bizarre I'm trying hard to believe that it isn't a late April Fool's Hoax.

Police Raid Mondo Kim's NYC - Kim's Video is NYC's version of I Heart Video plus 33 Degrees: all the stuff you'd never find in Tower or Blockbuster, for rent and for sale. The cops, assisted by the RIAA, confiscated mixtapes (CDs of underground remixes and mashups), cash registers, and -- most damningly -- computers with DVD burners (gasp!).

Simon's Photo Archive of Pregnant Animals - Welcome to my site! My name is Simon 'Skunky' Morrison, and I very love animals. Probably it looks bizarre, but I very much like to see pregnant animals. I very much love to look at their huge, distended bellys. I have female dog named Marta, and each year she becomes pregnant, and I very like to observe her and touch her inflated belly. It's great!
Now, I want to show you my collection of photos of pregnant animals. Some of them I have found in the Internet, some has scanned from magazines, and some has made myself. There is even one pregnant Marta's photo!
Farts on Tarts - What is all this about - you ask? Well, somebody will fart on a tartlet for you and post it to yourself or a dear friend!

Sorry ladies, Ned and Becky are both off the market. They got married in a beautiful ceremony on Saturday in Maryland, followed by a nigh flawless reception in the physics wing of the Baltimore Science center. We all had a great time, marvelled at the stunning cake (which Becky made herself), and met a bunch of their close friends. Enjoy slideshows of the Wedding, of Bachelor Party I (Austin), or of Bachelor Party II (Baltimore). [more inside]
