…How To Defuse A Nuclear Weapon
They forgot to mention that you must do all of the things on the checklist in just enough time to leave EXACTLY 007 seconds left on the timer.
And remember to cut the RED wire, not the GREEN wire, or else….
Oops, maybe it is the RED wire, I never can remember. Sorry.
So, apparently tomorrow is the End Of The World.
I heard about it from P.Z. Myers, who is always on top of stuff like this.
You might remember the last time I posted about these guys, and since then they’ve been wrong on at least three subsequent occasions, so you may or may not want to actually panic.
(Oh, okay, you got me. This whole post is just an excuse to use this picture of Karina Smirnoff naked. But, hey, pretty hot, right?)
From The New Yorker: “Attention, People of Earth” by Paul Simms
Speaking of which, have you seen the promos on ABC for the remake of the 1980s TV show “V”? In case you aren’t old enough to remember the 1980s, or are so old you can’t remember the 1980s, the show was about a bunch of aliens who came to Earth, pretended to be friendly, took over the planet, and then turned out to be rat-munching lizard people intent on destroying humanity….you know, the Republican Party. And like the Republican Party today, this time they’ve got a hot chick leading them, but she’s still a rat-eating lizard underneath. I thoroughly expect this show to run right up until the 2012 election, whereupon it will have to be re-classified as a “reality show”.
My friends, say hello to Izzy.
Hmm? Lizards aren’t your thing? Well how about a slap in the face with a big, fat eel?
Not so much? How about a video clip of a likely Darwin Award winner playing with a rifle?
I think that stunt deserves a big round of applause, don’t you?
Well, no matter what, there’s always room for Jello!
I could get drummed out of the corps for this, but here’s a peek inside an actual PC, showing you just how this marvel of modern technology REALLY works!
The BBC reports that the British department store Selfridge’s will officially roll out its Christmas shopping season this year on AUGUST 2. But American retail chain Toys R Us has them beat with a “Christmas In July” sale that runs this week. (although, as far as I can tell, that’s just a sale and not [...]
On Friday, I decided to stop having Facebook scrape and post my blog feed. I just don’t feel like blog posts fit the very ephemeral vibe of FB, and, frankly, it irritates the living crap out of me when people post comments about the blog posts on FB instead of posting them here. I am [...]
In my copious spare time, usually whilst sitting in the waiting area at Charlotte’s karate studio, I have been making slow but steady progress toward adding tags to all the posts on this site. As of right now, I have completed tagging all the way back to April 1, 2008. The current archive of this [...]
Just the other day I posted about a young man from Nepal who was trying to get into the Guinness Book of World Records as the shortest man in the world. He’s only 22 inches tall, compared to the 29-inch tall He Pingping of China, who is the current record holder. Well, WAS the current [...]

Dear Harvey, Pete, Barry, Kevin, and every other weathermonkey on Boston-area TV: Enough is enough. The fucking blizzard was THIRTY-TWO YEARS AGO. It’s time to stop trotting out the same blurry videotape of cars stuck on Rt. 128 that is older than some of the people who are actually on your broadcast, just so we [...]
I recently posted about the use of menhaden in making fish oil dietary supplements and the potential risk that poses to the entire Atlantic Ocean ecosystem. One of the alternatives to using menhaden for omega-3 supplements is algae oil, because algae is the primary diet of the menhaden and is actually the source of all [...]
It’s going to be a long two months waiting for the iPad to actually ship so that all the tech bloggers and their hangers-on will stop writing so much speculative bullshit about iT and turn their attention iNstead to some other thing that’s going to Change Life As We Know iT. Since you cannot click [...]
Please, please, PUH-LEEZE stop talking about “What do we call the last decade?” Nobody could come up with an acceptable choice ten years ago, and nobody’s going to come up with one now. “Aughties” and “Naughties” are contrived and stupid, and so is the very idea that anything wraps up all nice and neatly into [...]
This week Barack Obama committed the United States to at least two more years of war, 30,000 troops in harm’s way for no other reason than saving face, and umpteen billions of dollars wasted FOR NO GOOD REASON WHATSOEVER and we are inundated with: Tiger Woods proving he knows how to put it in the [...]
