Mucho Madness

Can't beat those 'Mericans for astonishing acts of idiocy - my new favourite is the dosing of an entire French village with a LSD derivative as a little experiment back in the Fifties. As appealing as hallucinogenic baguettes sound I can't think why the boffins felt the need to try such a large scale test, specially as they'd been testing it on unwitting service personnel already. Mind we weren't much better.


James Brown's body is missing from his crypt. A zombie Godfather of Soul stalks the land? His daughter reckon's he was murdered too.

Scientologists aren't too impressed with an upcoming documentary to be shown on German TV and are accusing them of trying to "create a mood of intolerance and discrimination against a religious community" - eek - those Xenu lovers really love to spread the hate around. Hopefully the German's will stand firm as I like a bit of idiot bashing & hopefully someone will upload a fan-subbed version soon.

True but Strange

Some guy has written a bit of a thinky article about PKD and video games, via Metzger i think

Deforestation might have a silver lining, shame though as we'll be flooded out before they get a chance to have a dig. via new scientist

Via Dang Minds & Gizmodo is a nice graphic of our nuclear insanity, proper mad.

Can't even begin to imagine what a Lynch directed Return to The Jedi would've been like but surely better than the one we got. thanks scifwire

Last post ever using words Guff and/or Stuff

Fascinating article by a Venezuelan gamer faced with a new law banning "violent" games that quickly descends into a perspective on Chavez's revolution. via boingboing

Cory Doctorow, co-founder of said BoingBoing, also writes in my favourite daily the Grinuada and he's done a nice piece about Pappa Murdoch's recent Interweb thinkings.

Glasgow North East is in and it's Labour win, hardly a surprise though. A record low turnout and the Conservatives only just beat the BNP into third with 1074 votes or something, I'm not really sure what any of that means but I'm fairly sure Cameron isn't selling his juju over here but at least they beat the retarded BNP scumbucket, scuse me, I'm sure whoever you are you're a charming, loveable bigot.

Peculiar earthworm looking tool Hannity fessed up to "making a mistake" but not for deliberating trying to mislead people after Jon Stewart called him out on a bit of video-feed trickery pokery. Maybes it was me but he seems especially punchable.

Nice South Park this week aimed squarely at mega-clown Glenn Beck. Not sure if this link will play, if it's blocked get a proxy thing like Hotspot Shield or something else.

Glenn Beck is such a Dum Dum Dummy - his words

Presumably Glenn Beck decided Stewart & Colberts 3 week hiatus was the perfect time to unleash his full nuttiness. Here's the Huffpo link to his latest idiotic spouting and the clip demonstrating his dire need for schooling.



and here's Beck reassuring us he's not a tool.
