1959 Johnny Cash Appearance

I Walk the Line - God bless the intertubes!

Geek Dad

Geek Dad - A Wired blog for geeks with kids. Does not affect me yet but probably about 80% of my readership may be interested. I think this and some Make projects would be a damn cool way to spend a day.

Real Time

I was talking to today that BuSh and co were traitors and should be hung. Nice opening line, huh? Anyway, seems like Bill Maher agrees. Check out Traitors don’t get to question my patriotism and from earlier Sacrifice. Both good rants.

Another This American Life Clip

Cameras in the Playground - The best thing in the media does for TV what it has been doing for radio.

Me, My Soul, and I

Me, My Soul, and I - Douglas Hofstadter has a new book, I am a Strange Loop. Must finish GEB asap.

20 Things You Did Not Know About

20 Things You Did Not Know About - Fascinating stuff! I’ve read Death and Lab Accidents. BTW, scientist who are trying to create blackholes in particle accelerators are retroactively DotW’s.

Last ZeFrank Show

Last ZeFrank Show - Favorite vodcast is no more. Hope to see more works of his in the future.

Advice to Young Men from an Old Man

Advice to Young Men from an Old Man - I love posts like this. Some of my favs:
2. Don’t hate women. It’s a waste of time
5. As a former Marine, take it from me. Don’t join the military, unless you want to risk getting your balls blown off to secure other people’s economic or political interests.
7. Don’t be a Republican. They are self-dealing crooks with no sense of honor or patriotism to their fellow citizens. If you must be a Republican, don’t be a “conservative.” They are whining, bitching, complaining, simple-minded self-righteous idiots who think they’re perpetual victims. Listen to talk radio for a while, you’ll see what I mean.
11. As a young man, you’re on your own. Society divides and conquers. Unlike women who have advocates looking out for them (NOW, Women’s Study Departments, government, non-profit organizations, political advocacy groups) almost no one is looking out for you.
23. Realize that love is a numbers game. Guys fall in love easily. You’re going to see some girl and feel like you’ll die if you don’t get her. If she rejects you, move on to the next one. It’s her loss.
26. Don’t gay bash. Don’t mentally or physically abuse people because of who they are, or how they present themselves. It’s none of your business to try to intimidate people into conformity.

Hell they are all good. Check them out!
