CRIKEY! Sad, sad news this morning from Australia. Steve Erwin, everyone’s favorite crocodile hunting, animal planet hosting, deadly venom avoiding, alligator tail snatching, great white shark swimming Australian maniac was killed tragically this morning “by a sting-ray barb that went through his chest” while he was filming an underwater documentary in the waters off the […]
Skype the Magic Gecko, you know, the one from under my ass and on my wall, has the uncanny ability to materialize and dematerialize at will. That makes him difficult to photograph and impossible to catch. I’ve tried to do both, but the second Skype catches notice of you, he disappears instantaneously. It is still […]
Today Skype waited patiently on the wall, posing, while I took a dozen pictures with a flash. I think he’s getting more comfortable with me.
It’s just a matter of time before he’s eating right out of my hand.
7 Seven years ago I nearly agreed to be set up with a girl by our friend Jay. I despise the idea of setups, blind dates, and internet dating. I HATE the idea of committing to spend some of my valuable time with someone I’ve never met, don’t know what they look like, and don’t […]
Moronland has a brilliant collection of really retarded quotes recorded during various trials. This shit is too fucking funning. Some hightlights…
ATTORNEY: Are you sexually active?
WITNESS: No, I just lie there.”
ATTORNEY: Now doctor, isn’t it true that when a person dies in his sleep, he doesn’t know about it until the next morning?
WITNESS: Did you actually […]
Steve Irwin dies and the reptiles of the world go fucking nuts! Check out this python that ate a pregnant sheep! Awesome.
I ate and drank “all you can eat and drink” at a place called Spice Island on Wednesday night. I felt worse than this when I was done.

HER: “hi - everything ok? haven’t heard from you in a while… i’m going to the post office tomorrow to send your camera disk - anything from the western world you would like popped in the envelope?”
ME: “No darlin, I don’t need anything from the western world other than freedom of speech and a blowjob. […]
Relatively unknown band OK Go made a huge splash this year on the MTV Video Music awards with their song and “Treadmill Dance” performance for “Here It Goes”. The video for the song has become HUGE on YouTube and pretty much everyone has been talking about it for more than a week. I know I’m […]
Look at his little fingernails!!! AArrrrghhhhhh!!
The other night I trapped little Skype in a plastic food container. It was 3am and I couldn’t sleep. He was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. I played with him for a little while. Clare thinks “played with” means “tortured” and she’s probably right. In any […]
If your name is not Gilbert Yeh, do not read this post.
I have been wanting to pick up LocoRoco for PSP for months. I just realized about a week ago that it only just came to the US. It’s been on the shelves here in Dubai since at least July. I could tell from early […]
How I’m formatting my del.icio.us links… (plasticbag.org)
I like the way Tom Coates formats his del.icio.us links in daily posts rather than in a sidebar. I’d prefer something more like kottke, but his is possible because he’s not using del.icio.us. This will just be a new experiment for now, but a redesign is c

Here is Skype, getting bigger, but still very tiny, stuck up on the wall. In the second photo you can make out the little gooey pads on the bottom of his foot. Click to zoom.
I want to crush his little Sleestack head. Doesn’t he look like a Sleestack? You know, from Land of the Lost? […]
The sign above the sink in the kitchen reads, “DO NOT use sink for 3 hours!”
Ummm, 3 hours from when retard?
The sink is filled nearly to the top with dirty water and dishes and cups.
Some of you know and some of you don’t, but in 9 hours I’ll be on a plane headed for Amsterdam for a few days of work and few days of play. Unfortunately I have a chest cold and cough, which means I might have to stick to space cakes and beer which was not […]
Bollywood + midget = best video in the history of YouTube.
Although I am drunk and high and stuffed full of falafel from Maus, (best falafel on the planet is in Amsterdam and not the Middle East.) I can recognize the greatest thing I’ve ever seen. Special thanks to Kathlene for think of me when she […]
On some Australian music TV channel, Ben Folds, and maybe the rest of the Five, cover the Postal Service’s, Such Great Heights (from the Garden State soundtrack), live, in one take, using a piano, a wine glass, and a towel covered mailbox. Absolutely insane.
I know I’m late to the party on this, but I don’t […]
‘The Pika (pronounced ‘pie-ka’) may look like a hamster, but is actually a cousin of the rabbit.’
Of course, “Pikachu” is a portmanteau of the words, pika, meaning to spark or meaning a sparkle of lightning in the Japanese language, and “chū”, an onomatopoeia in the Japanese language for the squeak made by a mouse. It […]
