The last two months have been terrible. Mainly because I have tried to keep up with this site, and failed and...well, that's about it really. But now I have a firm window where I do this so I'll have no truck with this nonsense of no updates. So, with that in mind, here's the links....

Breakfasts
by

on Mon 08 Feb 2010 10:40 AM GMT
one of the things about living in society is that you eat. It's a simple enough premise You eat, or you appear in teen movies.
To this end there are a wide variety of breakfasts available. English, continental, cereal or fruit. Some people just like a coffee and toast. Some people prefer tea and a bagel. It's a free world. Once you start feasting on human heads, I think you want to either question your diet or buy a bib. Following this train of thought, many new breakfasts have emerged to cater for the fast lifestyles.  This is nuts. I am sorry. To make a drink out of what is essentially mush, or more accurately eventually mush, is just time saving taken to a strange level. And then to provide a container which enables to to guzzle that mush on the bus. There's something wrong. There's more bad breakfast ideas here. Monday, February 1
Rip Torn. Master Villain.

Apparently. I mean, the guy looks pretty rough.
From Here So much for aging gracefully. Emmy-winning actor Rip Torn was arrested Saturday for allegedly breaking into a bank in Salisbury, Conn., where he's a resident. Police described the incident as a booze-inspired bank job. In a statement, cops say they responded to an alarm at 9:40 p.m. Friday and found Torn "with a loaded revolver, and was highly intoxicated." The many charges against the 78-year-old Men in Black star include carrying a firearm while intoxicated, carrying a pistol without a permit, first-degree criminal trespass, first-degree burglary, and third-degree criminal mischief. Torn has had several brushes with the law over the past few years, including a dismissed 2004 drunken driving charge and a 2007 guilty plea of being "ability impaired" while operating a vehicle. He is currently being held on a $100,000 cash bond and is set to appear in court Monday.  He looks very sober, you have to admit. Sunday, January 31

The N.H.L. has gained huge attendance the last few seasons with its
annual outdoor Winter Classic, played at places like Wrigley Field and
Fenway Park. Never an organization to pass up a good idea, the Harlem
Globetrotters decided to play a game outdoors as well. Not wanting to
mess with success, they decided they too would play their game on ice.

Ed Felten from the Freedom to Tinker blog has written a post with Princeton senior Sauhard Sahi called Census of Files Available via BitTorrent.
The survey takes a random sample of files available on a trackerless
BitTorrent system. The article is full of caveats--discussion happening
in the comments--but does dig into the likely copyright status of the
works they found.

Kinda cool to park it, difficult to get in and even trickier to get the word 'tosser' off the paintwork, no doubt scrawled on the side while you were in Starbucks.

This is a really interesting article about space exploration and theoretics.
Oceans of liquid diamond, filled with solid diamond icebergs, could be floating on Neptune and Uranus, according to a recent article in the journal Nature Physics. The research, based on first detailed measurements of the melting point of diamond, found diamond behaves like water during freezing and melting, with solid forms floating atop liquid forms. The surprising revelation gives scientists a new understanding about diamonds and some of the most distant planets in our solar system. "Diamond is a relatively common material on Earth, but its melting point has never been measured," said Eggert. "You can't just raise the temperature and have it melt, you have to also go to high pressures, which makes it very difficult to measure the temperature." Take a look! Thursday, January 14

Chicken Pope

on Tue 12 Jan 2010 08:00 PM GMT
This is really cool. I came home for dinner awhile ago and My wife had
made me a good meal. We had some Chicken Nuggets in it and I noticed
right away that one was staring back at me! It was Mother Teresa.
I paused for a moment and relized It really is Mother Teresa. I turned
the nugget over and it no longer looked like Mother Teresa it was Pope John Paul II
wearing his Pontiff hat. I'm sorry I don't know the actual term for the
hat. Well with my family I know it would be destroyed or eaten so I
decided to place it up for bid. This has a great spiritual meaning for
most faiths. I truly want it to go somewhere that it can be cherished
for a long time to come.

So, after consuming pot brownies and getting a little too drunk on
thanksgiving a friend and i decided to buy 1500 live ladybugs from
amazon, which was a great idea until they came in the mail. Now they're
sitting on my windowsill and I have nothing to really do with them. If
i set them free they'll die in this weather, if I leave them on my
windowsill they'll die.
So, if you have a greenhouse or some kind of animals to feed them to it'd be awesome. I don't want to ruin 1500 lives. Email me and tell me what your'e gonna do with them, and if you can come pick them up. And they're yours. Monday, January 11

Memo to Female Readers -- I'm just curious if you know this -- guys will do pretty much anything in order to play with your boobs. You know this already, right? Sometimes I wonder, given all the emotional and logistical acrobatics you go through. In fact, if you end your MC posts with ..."oh, and you can play with my boobs, too," you'll most likely find what you're looking for. That's when the real misery and disappointment begins, however, but that's outside the scope of this quick, heartfelt, holiday memo. Okay. Carry on. Love, Michael

Listener Doesn't Like "Boner Ads" Friday, January 8, 2010
Jack and Joe,
I'm a 68-year-old female retiree. I thought the general consensus was boner ads are a really bad idea. It's hard to imagine a more avid fan of your program than I am. I am a writer and I drop in a cassette each morning. Yes! a cassette! I record your show each day because I do my best thinking and writing in the morning. At 3 PM when Michael Savage comes on I play back your morning program while I do dishes and tidy up the house. I believe I've been doing this the entire time you've been on Talk 650. I love you guys. BUT! I'm turning off Talk 650 until you get rid of those boner ads. After about 7 PM when Talk 650 turns down their power, KFI in Los Angeles comes in clearer,640. Do you know how many boner ads KFI has? Zero. Joe, you have a young daughter. Isn't it embarrassing to her to hear ads about Grandpa's boner? Why should this crap be crammed down the throats of kids? It's about as welcome to hear, as another 9 year old performing oral sex on your youngest daughter. My theory is that men are so in love with their junk that they think the world revolves around their dicks. They need a reality check. The world doesn't. And it shouldn't. Jack and Joe, as grown men, how would you like to hear ads about whether Grandma's virginia gets juicy or not during sexual arousal? Yucky, huh? Young people don't want to think about Grandma's juiciness or Grandpa's boner. They don't want to think that they are even sexual beings anymore. I'm turning off Talk 650 and once a week I'll check back in to see if your station is really so crass, classless, and desperate that it really needs to advertise boner ads. I'll miss you guys a lot, but I won't have Grandpa's Boner shoved down my throat. Goodbye (but I hope it's not forever) Katie Thursday, January 7

TOP FMLs
by
ed
on Wed 06 Jan 2010 10:00 AM GMT
from the FML Website, some of the funniest FMLs.
Today, I forgot to do my French homework, but since it was an online worksheet, I told my teacher my internet wasn't working. I told her with an e-mail. FML Today, I babysat 3 year old twins. They have a huge dry erase board hanging inbetween their beds. After they fell asleep I drew a very detailed and large drawing of a penis. When I went to erase it I realized it was in Sharpie. FML Today, I thought it would be funny to fart in my roommates mouth while he was asleep. I walked over to him and pulled my pyjamas down and let loose. To my surprise it was a very wet one and I accidently took a dump on his face, he woke up and beat me until I was bleeding. FML Today, I woke up a little after seven. I felt sick to my stomach because last night was my bachelor party and I drank more than I ever have before. I checked my phone, and I had received 42 missed calls. It was seven o'clock pm. Today was my wedding day. FML
Agony Aunt of the week

Dear DoubleTake,I have been in a relationship with a
man for about two years now, and I fear I am wasting my time. He has
three kids by three other women, and he's only been married once.I guess my question is, am I wasting my time? He is a good man but is very selfish.I
also have a son by him, which makes four children for him. He hasn't
mentioned anything about being marriage. He did ask us to live with
him, but to me that's still not good enough.He's never bought me
jewelry, which to me symbolizes how special a person is. I'm not sure
if this makes sense, but I really don't feel this man cares for me like
he should or even plans on making a future with me.What do you think?
What would you do? I can guess. Read the reply here.
I am sorry?

I knew companies sponsored events, sports etc.
I wasn't aware they sponsored demolition, but... IRVING – Texas Stadium will come down this spring in a "Cheddar Explosion." That's the name that Kraft Foods has given to its promotional campaign for the implosion of the iconic structure. In its last act of 2009, the Irving City Council on Thursday unanimously approved Kraft Foods as the official sponsor for the demolition. "It's a good deal for us and a good deal for them," council member Rose Cannaday said during the 15-minute special meeting. <more> Tuesday, January 5
