Bye Bye Diebold!!!

I'm glad Sancho took the chance to test the crappy product Diebold puts out. I will feel much more secure in my votes in 06.

This is pretty awesome...

From representative John Dingell (D-MI), a poem in response the the truly absurd HR579 'protecting' Christmas from whatever imaginary attack it is that the completely-out-of-touch-with-reality Bill O'Reilly sees.




'Twas the week before Christmas and all through the House,
no bills were passed `bout which Fox News could grouse.
Tax cuts for the wealthy were passed with great cheer,
so vacations in St. Barts soon should be near.

Katrina kids were all nestled snug in motel beds,
while visions of school and home danced in their heads.
In Iraq, our soldiers need supplies and a plan,
and nuclear weapons are being built in Iran.

Gas prices shot up, consumer confidence fell.
Americans feared we were in a fast track to ..... well.
Wait, we need a distraction, something divisive and wily,
a fabrication straight from the mouth of O'Reilly.

We will pretend Christmas is under attack,
hold a vote to save it, then pat ourselves on the back.
Silent Night, First Noel, Away in the Manger,
Wake up Congress, they're in no danger.

This time of year, we see Christmas everywhere we go,
From churches to homes to schools and, yes, even Costco.
What we have is an attempt to divide and destroy
when this is the season to unite us with joy.

At Christmastime, we're taught to unite.
We don't need a made-up reason to fight.
So on O'Reilly, on Hannity, on Coulter and those right-wing blogs.
You should sit back and relax, have a few egg nogs.

'Tis the holiday season; enjoy it a pinch.
With all our real problems, do we really need another Grinch?
So to my friends and my colleagues, I say with delight,
a Merry Christmas to all, and to Bill O'Reilly, happy holidays.
Ho, ho, ho. Merry Christmas."

Dance across the world!

Or at least something that sorta kinda resembles dancing. Sorta.


Not really though.

Vin Diesel

1) Vin Diesel once walked down the street with a massive erection. There were no survivors.

2) If you rearrange the letters in Vin Diesel it reveals his credo: "I End Lives."

3) There is no theory of evolution, just a list of creatures Vin Diesel allows to live.

4) When Vin Diesel goes to donate blood, he declines the syringe, and instead requests a hand gun and a bucket.

5) Helicopters were invented after someone witnessed Vin Diesel pivoting while aroused.

6) There is no "I" in team. There are two "I"s in Vin Diesel. Fuck you, team.

7) In an average living room there are 1,242 objects Vin Diesel could use to kill you, including the room itself.

8) Vin Diesel can win a game of Monopoly without owning any property.

9) Vin Diesel has always been able to find Waldo, except for one time. He found himself stumped on the last page of Where's Waldo Now?, not being able to find the Waldo without a shoe. He threw the book down and screamed, "This is BULLSHIT!" They're all wearing shoes." He then proceeded to eat the book and exclaim, "IF I CAN'T FIND WALDO, THEN NO ONE CAN!" The book he ate belonged to a child that he had borrowed it from. The child began to cry and Vin ate him for good measure. The incident has since been refered to as Christmas.

10) Vin Diesel is the reason why Waldo is hiding.

11) Vin Diesel once beat Super Mario Bros 3 without even touching his Nintendo controller. He just yelled at his TV in between bites of his "Filet of Child" sandwich, and the game beat itself out of fear.

12) Vin Diesel is the only man to ever defeat a brick wall in a game of tennis.

13) Vin Diesel has two speeds: walk and kill.

14) When Vin Diesel jumps into a body of water, he doesn't get wet. The water gets Vin instead.

15) Vin Diesel can set ants on fire with a magnifying glass. At night.

16) When Vin Diesel was born, the nurse said, "Holy crap! That's Vin Diesel!" Then she had had sex with him. At that point, she was the third girl he had slept with.

17) If you were to lock Vin Diesel in a room with a guitar, a year later you would have the greatest album ever, it would sweep the Grammy's. When asked why he doesn't do this Vin replied "Because Grammy's are for queers." then he ate a knife to show the seriousness of his response.

18) Vin Diesel played Russian Roulete with a fully loaded gun and won.

19) Vin Diesel was the hunter who shot Bambi's Mother. He then wore her carcass like it was a coat while he made his rounds at the local children's hospital.

20) Vin Diesel coined the phrase, "I could eat a Horse" after he ate every last unicorn in existence.

21) It takes 14 puppeteers to make Vin Diesel smile, but only 2 to make him destroy an orphanage.

22) Vin Diesel is not lactose intolerant, he just refuses to put up with lactose's shit.

23) On his birthday, Vin Diesel randomly selects one lucky child to be thrown into the sun.

24) When Vin Diesel does a pushup, he isn't lifting himself up, he's pushing the Earth down.

25) In fine print at on the last page of the Guiness Book of World Records it notes that all world records are held by Vin Diesel, and those listed in the book are simply the closest anyone has ever come to matching him.

26) Vin Diesel can divide by zero.

27) Vin Diesel's hair is too afraid of him to grow.

28) Magnetic compasses do not point toward true North - they point in the direction of Vin Diesel. He just likes to sit on a lawn chair and shout, "Jackets are for pussies!" at the Acrtic researchers.

29) You are what you eat. That is why Vin Diesel's diet consists entirely of bricks, steel, and the tears of small children.

30) During a stay at Neverland Ranch in the 80's, Vin Diesel was awoken by Michael Jackson who was trying to sneak into his bed. Vin punched Jackson so hard that he knocked the black right off of him.

OK This Is Pretty Stupid

No clue why you'd want to put TWO engines into a crappy ass VW GTI, but whatever. The bitch asplodes. Best part is the choice of music they used at the end.

Vikings Rawk!!!

No. Fucking. Clue.

Now Comes The Hard Part

Indictments are nice, but convictions are better. Hopefully this will be the first in a long line of indictments for the crooked sons of bitches we have in Washington.

This country will be better off with more politicians in jail.

Pretty Teh Awesome!

This thing is pretty cool. I've seen another vehicle protype with a similar tilting principle, and also three wheeled, but inverted with one unpowered wheel in front and two powered wheels in back. I tend to think this guy's approach is better as it gives more forward stability, which is important for turning.

I'd love to see stuff like this get mass produced, but Big Auto doesn't care about things like innovation, safety, fuel efficiency, convenience, affordability....

Oh well.

Gee, Ya Think?

$600 sho' is a lot of money...for me to poop on!

Actually, 600 bucks is almost enough to fill up your car's tank with gas. For a week.

Bush Finally Accepts Fault For Something

Its a start. Now lets see if he'll accept fault for all of his other fuckups.


Probably not.


Of course, it took the prodding of the media, the outrage of the nation, and of course dismal polling results to get him to this point. Now it is up to the public to keep the pressure on this asshat and finally hold him accountable for the unbelievable level of incompetence, cronyism and outright corruption he has wrought on this country.

He has managed to make Bill Clinton look like a decent president.

How the FUCK do you make Bill Clinton look good!? Jesus.
