Fucking took forever and a day, but stil…

Gitmo detainees get lawyers, and it’s about bloody time, too. The deeply disgraceful, shameless SCOTUS has, for once, done the right thing and defended the Constitution against the hunting buddies of the court. “Due process is kewl,” says Justice O’Connor.


the poverty of big label music….

June 24th, 2004

…is demonstrated right here. It’s hard to believe that legions of music fans are this dumb, that they’re satisfied with the pap they’re fed. And I can’t believe how incredibly improved Nickelback is when played this way.


Not that I’m your #1 source for news, but…

June 23rd, 2004

…just to make sure no one has missed it, the new terror report doubles the number of terror-related deaths in 2003. In case you were wondering how effective our campaign on terror has been. I wonder how the deaths in Iraq will be classified. After all, the war was over a long time ago, right? [...]


Running some numbers…

June 22nd, 2004

Poor Kim Sun-il was beheaded in Iraq, and his body was turned into a bomb. On the heels of the beheading of Nick Berg, this comes, unfortunately, as no surprise. I have often thought that, given the nature of Iraq, that this sort of thing should have been entirely predicted before the war. Think about [...]


Oh, and comments

June 19th, 2004

I’ve turned on comment registration. It was misconfigured until a little while ago, but it should be working now. If you’ve commented here before, it should all just work as normal (I think). Otherwise, I have to approve your first comment, and after that, you’re golden. Or something like that. I could have it wrong, [...]


Jokes

June 19th, 2004

Isabel has made up two jokes. They will cause her to break out in wild laughter, which of course cracks me up as well. Joke #1 (singing): Row, row, row your boat Gently down the stream Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily Life’s a bowl of spaghetti! Joke #2 (also singing): Twinkle, twinkle, little star How I [...]


splaining myself

June 17th, 2004

So mon pere has apparently read my blog, and read enough posts of mine that tap the “fuck Dubya” vein, that there’s some worry that I’m either jeopardizing my future with these public, sailor-mouth comments (fuck ashcroft, too), or that I’m burning with the nuclear rage of a thousand suns and am stressed and unhappy. [...]

Johnny Ramone is fighting prostate cancer, and is losing that fight. Dee Dee and Joey are already gone. The world sucks more now.


MT 3.0

June 16th, 2004

I’ve upgraded to MT 3.0, and it appears to have gone smoovely (knock wood). Let me know if anything is not working correctly. I’m debating whether or not to require registered commentors: I don’t want to make it a pain in the ass to comment, but mt-blacklist doesn’t work with 3.0, so I’ve had to [...]


Gays Have Been Marrying For A While Now; Wrathful God Silent

June 15th, 2004

Just wanted to remind people: all kinds of gay marriages taking place here in Massachusetts. The moon is still in the sky, streets are angrily not filled with rampant fucking, nor are they running with the blood of the unbelievers. Society is functioning, and indeed, is bored with the idea already: several thousands years worth [...]
