Heh
I know Kerry's been dropping in the polls lately, and one could start to wonder if maybe this is the cause. I can see, now that my attention has been drawn to it, how favorably pictures of Bush looking clean-cut and all-American in his National Guard uniform compare to pictures of John Kerry, who just looks like Herman Munster sometimes. Whether you agree with this essay or not, it's obvious to anyone with the common sense God gave a petunia that Kerry's hurting no one but himself with his insistent harping on Bush's National Guard record.

Nooo! Please, oh please, no!
According to Absinthe & Cookies:
This is going to suck. It's going to reach new heights of suckiness that even the Garfield movie couldn't exceed.

- Fox is developing a theatrical film featuring the adventures and musical stylings of Alvin and the Chipmunks, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The film will combine live-action and real actors with CG-animated chipmunks.

Random Spiffiness
My friends are always wondering just exactly how I manage to find so many bizarre websites. I thought I'd be generous and share with you all my many sources.
First, Geek Press. Four or five odd-but-true links a day.
Second, Dave Barry's blog. If you don't read his columns, too, you're missing out on a world of hilarity.
Third, User Friendly's Link of the Day. On Saturdays there's an extra two links! Check out this Flash video.
So, my dear friends, next time you want to know how I found out that humans can swim as fast in maple syrup as they can in water, or how to make magma in your home microwave, check out these sites and learn for yourself.

Why I need a Segway
It inevitably happens that whenever I'm in a big hurry, rushing to a class or a meeting or whatever, that I get stuck behind a bunch of idiots that are walking down the hallway at about the same speed a snail takes a leisurely stroll. And, inevitably, those idiots are all talking amongst themselves so they have to be lined up 3 or 4 people in a row to chat and are BLOCKING THE ENTIRE HALLWAY so I CAN'T GET AROUND THEM! So we plod onward, slower than a sloth, as I desperately watch the seconds tick by... Sometimes it's so bad I might as well exit the building and walk around to another entrance.
Honestly, people! If your life is so devoid of meaning that you have nothing to do but hang out in a random hallway, at least do a favor for those of us that have other places to be, and stay to the right! Or if you hear footsteps behind you, rapidly gaining on you, move over!
Grrr.
In other news, you know that bit in the Bible where Paul says that every word that comes out of our mouths should be positive, uplifting, and beneficial to those around us? Yeah? Well, I'm working on it.
