The Bird Flu
Now, I am not saying that they shouldn’t be working on medecine and stuff like that, but this whole BIRD FLU PANDEMIC (YOU ARE ALL GOING TO DIE) coverage on the news is really overdone. I don’t want to be labeled a callous asshole here, but there are 12 people diagnosed with Bird Flu in Indonesia. That creates the total of 68 people worldwide since 2003.
I am not saying that we should UNDER-react and not work on diagnosing this thing, creating medecines, etc, I am just tired of people over-reacting. The news in this country has had Bird Flu on the tips of their tongues for months now with very little statistical information about the flu. I hazard to say that maybe they are just afraid that US News audiences wouldn’t take their reports seriously if they knew that the number of people infected worldwide was barely more than half a hundred.
Michael Jackson says Jews are ‘like leeches’
“They suck,” the King of Pop is allegedly heard saying on a voicemail message left for the ex-adviser. “They’re like leeches . . . I’m so tired of it . . . they start out the most popular person in the world, make a lot of money, big house, cars and everything. End up penniless. It is a conspiracy. The Jews do it on purpose.”
Allegedly molesting kids wasn’t enough to declare Michael Jackson legally insane. This is definitely good enough to push him over any edge he might have been leaning over.

The Attempted Assassination of Bret Michaels in Chicopee Mass
It is just speculation, but I am guessing the next time that Mr. Michaels is feeling uppity he will remember this, shut his mouth and start playing those G and C chords so that the people can hear Every Rose Has Its Thorn.
Does Your Bar Have an IPod Port?
I am wondering if this can come to Cleveland so that my favorite bars in suburbia can be saved from the overplayed sounds of Scott Stapp and his fellow Creed-mates.
Teri Hatcher Suing Tabloid
I think Teri Hatcher should allow this kind of reporting. Would any of her fans really complain as they sit there trying to imagine this situation that the object of their affection gets it on in the back seat of a Volkswagen?
I think not.
Coming Soon from Skinemax
“The next contestant comes to us from a quadruple murder where she had drugs and guns in her car. She also claims that she was framed and doesn’t belong here. Please welcome Conchita Ortiz to the Miss Penitentiary stage.”
Penn and Teller Bullshit
I am totally addicted to the Penn and Teller show on Showtime. I have been renting all the DVD’s from Netflix. Whether they are taking down the Intelligent Design folks, or debunking the benefits of recycling anything other than aluminum cans, or calling out PETA as supporters of terrorism, or killing the people who do Feng Shui, I just can’t get enough.
I want a whole TV channel around programming like this. Penn and Teller, the Mythbusters, the dudes from Freakonomics would be a good start for this channel. Once you got it established with these people, certainly more people who are actually almost without an agenda other than truth would be identified and join up onto the channel.
Now that would be something worth watching. Hell it could even start a movement or political party with people who are obsessed with the truth rather than silly left or right ideals of what they think they are supposed to be.
I can dream, right?
Who’s Afraid of Google?
Except, I would argue that consumers aren’t afraid of Google. If you read some of Bob Cringely’s analysis, I think you will be happy that someone is thinking this big. Sure they could be the next Microsoft, but really, would that be such an awful thing? Microsoft gets a bad rap around the internet, but they have done a lot of great things for desktop computing even if they have stifled, cheated, lied and stolen along the way.
Maybe Google will even be able to stick to its mantra of “Don’t be evil.”
