Apeforce

It seems like every child star on the Disney Channel these days is an actress/singer/fashion designer.  It’s something that’s been going on forever.  Somebody becomes famous for doing one thing well, then tries to do something completely different - counting on their accumulated fame to carry the new product.  Scott Baio’s self-titled release should be proof enough.  […]

OK, I don’t know how many of you enjoy either one of these series, but I really enjoy both.  Even when I was a kid, I wanted to be Robocop.  Why?  Because he didn’t waste time.  He got the job done, regardless of the cost to the private sector.
And Terminator.  Not even human, yet smart […]

For all you net users out there, here is a portrait I commissioned of myself.  Looking at it with the blueish background - I dunno.  Does it look a little “dark elf” to you?

This droid always made me laugh.

Girls can tell other girls that they’re pretty.  They take it as a compliment and go on about their business.  There’s nothing sexual about it (even though in guys’ minds there is).

When a guy says that another guy looks good, it’s gay.  Actually, if he says anything complimentary about another guy, his friends have a duty […]

This might be funnier to me than most, being an ex-sousaphone player and all. But, I’ve got to say that this is absolute gold from The Onion

OK, so I’m reading an article on PopSci.com and notice that the Greenland ice cap is shedding huge amounts (150 gigatons per year) of fresh water due to global warming.  The article goes on to say that this could cause worldwide devastation…yadda yadda yadda.  I’m sure it’s at least partially true. 
But since I’m in a weird mood today and I’m […]

OK, so this is nasty. But aren’t nasty things sometimes just so funny that you can’t stop laughing about it?
OK, here’s the story. I’m at the urinal yesterday and I’m doin’ my thing. Then I look down and notice that I’m a little…unkempt. Usually when I’m at a commode in […]

Oh Snap!

You’ve got to wonder how much longer this will continue. A lot of people bemoan the cruelty to animals involved with bullfighting, but it’s the harm to people that will eventually kill this tradition.
Do all the participants sign waivers before they run? The Euros just have a different stance on personal responsibility and lawsuits […]

Well, this is where it begins.
 Godzilla!
Oh sure, 1.2 cubic meters of radioactive water isn’t dangerous to the environment.  Pay no attention to that HUGE THING on the side of the building.  It’s a plume of black smoke you say?  Granted he’s a newborn - smaller and still a bit amorphous, but that’s him.  You just wait.  And hope […]
