Malaysia bans 'humiliating' Brad Pitt ad

Might be a valid point, but “humiliating”?

Liver: clipped, zapped and snapped

Wow! What a cool idea! Take the organ out then treat the cancer then re-implant.

Here's to hoping he guts multiple felonies on his record. Young and stupid never changes.

Selig wants to discuss Rose with Hall of Famers

If you've ever wondered what human looks like when they have no moral compass or ethical standards? Bud's your man. So's Rose, for that matter.

ATL trades Millwood to PHI for Estrada

Wow, what an amazingly bad trade. “Economics” my ass. They traded a stud pitcher to a division rival for a chump catcher!

Ladies and gentlemen, what you have just witnessed was the passing of the Braves torch. PHI is going to win the division this year, yessirree. Bowa or no, ATL has just officially screwed the pooch.

'Friends' to Keep Bond Alive for One More Season on NBC

'Friends' to Keep Bond Alive for One More Season on NBC

Hah! The cast was on the cover of People this week with some sort of bullshit text talking about desire, honor, and wanting to finish what they start or something. Hah! It's the $1.2+ million per episode that they'll be getting. For 13 weeks of 30-minute shows!

That's awesome, they've got NBC by the nads and know it. The NBC offer is up to $9mil/episode (of which, I'm assuming the starts will get at least $6). Go cast! Use your leverage, it's your birthday, use your leverage, it's your birthday…

Bush Administration to Propose System for Monitoring Internet

Here we go down the Ashcroft/convicted felon poindexter highway to screw the civil libertyville. Morons. I hope they get caught in their own web of surveillance and their strings don't get them out. Alternanet here I come.

Oh, and if this ever does come into effect I will only use encrypted email, so get your PGP or GPG today!

Become a Friend of GNOME

Become a Friend of GNOME

Another year-end contribution for one of my favorite F/OSS tools. You know, if someone got a painless nvidia-Debian driver installation, I'd kiss 'em. OK, OK, I'll give you $50 instead, how's that?

Anyway, GNOME is now a charity organization so now… it's a deductible expense if you donate.

Help Mandrakesoft Live

It's probably the best distro for the new linux user available. I used 8.0 at one time and I can say that it does have a very nice installer. Support them if you can, they deserve it… although I do have to admit their “history” made me chuckle. I bet I met those VCs at some point. Heh.

PaineWebber Ex-Employee Charged with Fraud

Former sysadmin planted logic bombs and then tried to play the stock market when he let them loose. FOOL! That is SO EASY TO TRACE. Given his level of intellect, I suspect he was a MCSE, not a un*x guy.

But here's the shocker: wanna guess his age? 25? Nope. 35? Nope. He is 60 years old! You'd think he'd no better by then. Santa Vaca!

Sing For Your Supper

It's not as if we didn't know pop songs were merely commercial shills for their corporate masters already, but this really drives the point home. The worst part? It's those grassfuckers at Sony who are getting the profits from the sellout, not the artists. Pathetic. Truly pathetic. Pathetic on a scale approaching the American/Pop Idol dreck.
