This is the most annoying popup I've ever had to endure. I clicked on a link to watch a video, and instead of the promised content, I started hearing this C-grade salesman and his lame ass pitch. Took me forever to go through my taskbar buttons and find the offender.

Not really worth clicking on -- I just wanted to vent.

Just read this very positive article in today's SF Chronicle about this new website, www.imow.org

Looking forward to exploring it...

Because Bobby Carburetor is easily the coolest guy on the face of the earth (who plays drums) ...

You can again hear the REAL version of All You Zombies. It is nothing like that watered down piece of crap that the rest of the country got with their MTV.

I've been listening to Scared by Science on repeat for the last half-hour or so. I don't usually do this with a single song, but I haven't heard it since some time in the early '80s, and it was always a favorite.

Please view and listen to this excellent site.

National Association of Manufacturers blog. Every saturday they post a new video tour of some factory or manufacturing process.
Like the "Industry on Parade" films they use to show on TV when the ball game was rained out.

A poster made up with/from using the entire script from Reservoir Dogs. Very cool.

I think I'll try this new linking feature.

What "they" used to think a home computer would be in 2004. http://users.net1plus.com/scottm/HomeComputer.jpg

Wait, you mean yours doesn't look like that?

I would like to know what the giant wheel was for. I doubt they predicted "Grand Theft Auto".

That was actually a Fark photoshop contest entry, but since then has been sent along as real by many many more people than sent it along as fake. It's taken on a life of its own.
