Wow, what a trip...

...now that I'm back, I think it's time for a long hot shower...but what showerhead should I use? If only there was a website to help me decide...

Rockbox Sansa Port to be Officially Supported

While Sandisk has been dropping hints for a while, this is the first time that the actually manufacturer has given its blessing to the Rockbox project. Austria MicroSystems, manufacturer of the SBC in Sandisk's Sansa series of MP3 players, told Rockbox developers last week that it will give them all of the documentation they need for the port as well as A4 form factor kits for easy hardware debugging if the Rockbox project will agree to also port its excellent open source firmware to AMS's upcoming SBC.

So that's good news to me.

Rage Against the Machine Reunites

You'll note that I actually meant to post this the day before it was "officially" announced, but didn't.

Creationism Museum

I think many people will be very interested to visit a museum of this theory of history. I believe the scientific name for it is "wrong."

Bumper Stickers

So I'm driving to work this morning and I see a really nice Lexus with one bumper sticker on it that reads "Cure Autism NOW!"

Now, I completely understand the point behind this bumper sticker, and yes I'd love to see Autism cured as well. But the sticker struck me as funny. Mainly one word stuck me as funny: "NOW!" As if the entire scientific community is taking a break, watching MTV or playing PS3 instead of doing research.

(Scene: Two scientists playing Xbox 360 in front of a huge plasma TV. A third scientist walks in.)
Scientist 1: Hey wassup Bill.
Scientist 2: So, you wouldn't believe what I saw on my way to work today!
Scientist 3: What?
Scientist 2: There were signs for Autism to be cured....NOW!
Scientists 1 and 3: What!?!
Scientist 2: Yeah!! And lots of them. Apparently people are fed up with waiting.
Scientist 3: Crap...I was on level 45 and about to get the Heaven's Axe too!
Scientist 1: Well... Bill is right. We should go ahead and get on that. The world is waiting, and they seem upset.
Scientist 2: Can you imagine how pissed they'll be when they learn that we've had the cure for AIDS, but have just been too busy playing Tony Hawk to release it.
(All three scientists begin to more toward the lab station)
Scientist 1: You know...I'm kinda hungry.
Scientist 2: Me too.
Scientist 3: I could go for some food.
Scientist 1: Lets do this later. I'm in the mood of Arbys!
Scientist 2 and 3: Yeah! Sounds good.
(All leave)

Drop curtain to thunderous applause.

Seriously though, who thought up that bumper sticker? Someone who is really pissed off, I guess. "Man they STILL haven't solved the Autism problem. I don't care if it’s safer to test these drugs on rats. I want Autism cured and I want it cured NOW!"

Hmmm... I don't know- struck me as funny. Maybe I'm the only one.

The drivers of cars parked across two spaces

....should be shot without a trial. But until that vital legislation passes, you might have to fall back on this old standard.

Actually, some of the comments eclipse the note in terms of pure humor, as measured in less-than-intelligent remarks.

Because I desperately want the future to be exactly like Star Trek

I am encouraging all young readers to pay attention to this

This post on Dave Barry's blog pretty much brings together 3 of my all time icons. What more can I say? And buy his book...or just send him some money in a box.

Good Old Pat Robertson

...always brightening our day ....is it just me or is this guy stone cold crazy?

key quote about predicting mass disasters: ""I have a relatively good track record," he said. "Sometimes I miss.""

key quote about his track record:

"In May, Robertson said God told him that storms and possibly a tsunami were to crash into America's coastline in 2006.

Even though the U.S. was not hit with a tsunami, Robertson on Tuesday cited last spring's heavy rains and flooding in New England as partly fulfilling the prediction."

Uh-oh PottBott

Bad news to hear after New Year's
