Bill Maher is Offensive, South Park is Unmentioned

Try as I might, I couldn’t find a mention of South Park on Wizbang, though, despite their anger over Bill Maher.

Does politics dictate anger?

Oh Poop

Interesting article about a new exhibit that’s probably gonna prove to be pretty crappy…

Now on display is a 5,000-square-foot exhibit on excrement titled “The Scoop on Poop,” which invites visitors to explore the science of scat. The exhibit is filled with photos of animals in some of their most indelicate moments. Stool sample models [...]

Sometimes the truth squeaks out…

So… John Kerry (who, in case you didn’t know, served in Vietnam! I know, shocking, right?) has finally let slip, in a moment of unsurpassed candidness, what he actually thinks about US troops. Apparently, he thinks they’re all crap students who failed at school and didn’t work hard enough.

This isn’t really open [...]

Alienware Tries Scummy Pressure

I was going to throw a few quotes in from an article on Hexus about how Alienware tried to influence their reviews by telling them they weren’t sending them any more units after their not-so-hot review of a recent system. Of course Hexus took offense at this pressuring and called Alienware out on it.

Mike Nifong: “It’s all good…”

Utterly clueless, this guy…

The prosecutor in the Duke lacrosse rape case has heard the criticism from experts and armchair lawyers, and said yesterday he is comfortable with nearly all the decisions he has made and confident about taking the case to trial.

“I think that I have a responsibility to prosecute this case,” district attorney Mike [...]

The Railroad Continues

Check this one out, from ABC News:

As she drove the accuser from the March 2006 Duke lacrosse party, Roberts told ABC News the woman was clearly impaired and “talking crazy.”

Roberts said she tried several different times to get the accuser out of her car.

“The trip in that car from the house … went from [...]

Information Salad — Episode 16 is live!

powered by ODEO

This week was a hell of a fun show, and we talked about a ton of stuff, had some of the worst political ads ever, had a talk about carbs, and even talked to a special guest whose radio voice is so good it annoys the hell out of Slobokan and I. [...]

Spokesperson 101: Know the issue.

Michael J. Fox shows up on the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric, twitching, shaking and rocking due to Parkinson’s disease. In the midst of the interview, his microphone falls off. Of course, for dramatic effect, Katie Couric reaches over to help him clip it back on and instead of editing that mishap [...]

Why GreenPeace Was Ejected From MacExpo London:

Well, we’ve heard a lot of the breathless offense being taken about GreenPeace being bounced out of MacExpo London including numerous assumptions as to what the reasons were. What we haven’t heard, of course, is the actual reason.

Until now:

According to Bob Denton, Event Director, the removal of Greenpeace had nothing to do its message [...]

9 Reasons to Ignore 9 Reasons Not to Move to Firefox 2.0

Oh joy. Yet another list that requires a thorough disassembly.

Let’s get started. The list is 9 reasons not to upgrade to Firefox 2.0

1. The new theme is too bulky, inconsistent on different platforms, and inferior to the highly refined and very user friendly theme of 1.5 (this is despite late efforts by [...]

The RSS Readers have served our community of end users well for several years, but with Pluck’s focus in other business areas, the venerable RSS readers are set to be retired from our [...]

Yahoo to Buy a Sinking Ship?

From the No F’ing Way department:

Yahoo must have a new appreciation of how Burger King feels about McDonald’s: Constantly looking up at No. 1 gets vexing. So it should come as no surprise that Yahoo’s chairman and CEO Terry Semel is mulling a number of moves that would impress Wall Street and steal the spotlight [...]

Dress Like Captain Underpants and Be Sent Home

I’ve long defended schools’ rights to enforce their dresscodes however arbitrary and silly they might be. This time, however, I have to say the school is just stupid.

LONG BEACH, N.Y. — Captain Underpants may be a superhero, but he isn’t welcome at one suburban New York school.

Three 17-year-old girls were told to leave Long [...]

This Is Utterly Shocking

I had to re-read this twice just to make sure I was seeing it correctly.

It would appear that the prosecutor in the Duke lacrosse team rape case hasn’t spoken to the accuser yet to get her version of the story. Bear in mind that this isn’t a case that recently happened. In fact, [...]
