GAMES/MUSIC: These posts today are a bit childish. That being said, here's an organ simulator with a twist. Someone spent too much time making this thing and you have a bunch of options to play with. Enjoy.
Give to Pennies To Protect Police Dogs.com. I'm broke so my contribution is posting this. And by the way, don't run if you see K9 unit tags on a police cruiser.
Check out the many fighting styles of Donald Rumsfeld.
VIDEO (sort of): You gotta try this illusion. You put your hand flat on a table and then stare at a moving image for 60 seconds. When you look at your hand you'll swear you're on acid or something. This think works and probably took three days off my life.
Gas prices are out of control. Lucky for us someone has found yet another way to use the internet for good purposes. Simply enter your zip code and an acceptable driving radius and this site will find the cheapest pumps for you. Spiffy.
VIDEO: BopBush is an inflatable Bush doll that has a weight at the base so you can punch him and he'll keep asking for more. This isn't too interesting except you get to see a movie of Jello Biafra going to town on one.
Seymore Duncan and some luthiers build a 32 foot, fully functioning guitar for the Discovery Channell show BIG!. This puppy has a single 156 pound humbucker. What I really want is a 60 foot half stack.
I like PBS and NPR and I don't care if that makes me a loser. Last night the PBS news magazine Frontline had a great piece on the way the music industry is f*ed up. Includes tracking a potential pop princess and interviews with Velvet Revolver. Great program, great episode.
There's a new rockumentary about Metallica out soon called "Some Kind of Monster". They've been getting some positive feedback.
VIDEO: Here's a guy who forgot to take his Bean-o. Then he gets ahold of a harmonica. Hilarity ensues.
VIDEO: Some clips of the development of the taser. These test subjects do a mean wha-too-see. Ride the lightning, biatch.
VIDEO: Two quick vids where a snowman gets OWNED by some quality fireworks. Frosty meets his doom.

This is a good urban-legends page. They do some research and use common sense to figure this stuff out. I just linked to the photo page. Some of the content is quaint, but some is REALLY NASTY. Beware.
I guess the only reason to post something sad is to gain perspective on one's own life. Click here if you're in need of such perspective.
GERMANY: This may be the first, and possibly the last, positive post about Germany. Germany's oldest man celebrated his 111th birthday today. His secret to longevity? Avoid exercise and drink lots of beer.
This site is all about the Israel - Palestine conflict. Its brief, with some good links. There are a few very impressive and gritty pics to see.
PHOTO: So, what's that lyin in the middle of the road?
Need to rent a tiger? Check out these guys. I'm really just posting it for the "model with tiger" pic on the homepage. Awesome.
Smashmouth has been booted from the Fair St. Louis line up. They were brought in to draw a younger, hipper crowd. Yeah, right. Who's the replacement? Charlie Daniels Band?
BTW- Stltoday.com, our Post-Dispatch online sister, has the longest most inane links I've ever seen. I mean, look at all that crap for the Smashmouth link!

Face transplant surugry "inches toward reality". What do you think?
VIDEO: Since we've been getting nasty weather lately, enjoy some vids and pics of serious tornado action.
VIDEO: British doctor uses saltwater-turned-plasma to remove a girl's tonsils. The entire 15 minute operation is available for viewing (see link on right of page).
High School girl gets OWNED by friends after passing out at prom party. I've gotta start pulling this kind of thing on my "friends".
John Kerry has been "Google bombed". Basically some conservatives got together and ran a bunch of searches associating his name with the word "waffles". Now if you search Google under the word "waffles" the first site you get is johnkerry.com.
Thank God for the freedom of information act. The Smoking Gun has a transcript of Kissinger telling an aide that Nixon can't take a call from the British PM because he's wasted.

This program is some kind of a math trick (sponsored by 7Up). It would take a while to explain so I'll just say take a minute and try it. Neat stuff.
I thought this was funny. You probably won't. Its whatacrappypresent.com
VIDEO: If you want to see a group of dorky college guys make an alternative video to Beyonce's "Crazy", then click here.
AUDIO: This is very much worth reposting in case anybody missed it. Nickelback's hits are THE SAME SONG. This site has "Someday" in your right speaker and "How You Remind Me" in the left speaker. They match perfectly. Do I need to say it? Yeah, Nickleback sucks.
Auction house Christies is selling some Eric Clapton guitars. He describes them as "the cream of his collection". Money will go to his charity.
This is too messed up for comment. I'll say that a clown is involved.
NEWSFLASH: CNN reports Phish is breaking up. I'm so happy I'm bouncing 'round the room.
PHOTO: Enjoy these snaps of Miss Universe contestants in their swim trunks. Yum.
Dog-killing swans on the loose in England. The pic is the best. Look into the eyes of a stone-cold murderer.

VIDEO: People smacking each other in an attempt to get concert tix. Dumb and funny.
Death by wedgie. Be careful whose undies you grundie.
VIDEO: And you thought Cobain knew how to smash a guitar?
Check out this interesting NY Post article on the "Mob's Last Hoorah". The Bonanno family head, Joe Massino, is getting tried for murder and other RICO realted charges. Turns out his brother-in-law squealed. Its a good read.
Sharks are amazing creatures. Check out some pics and vids at sharkattacks.com. They have some crazy material over there, including a video of a killer whale taking down a great white and then feeding it to its young. Yikes.
Read Sun Tzu's "The Art of War". No other book outlines combat stratagies so well. This infomation translates to daily activities as well. No, I'm not into this book because of The Sopranos. Actually, My Dad gave me a copy when I was fairly young. Here's a quaint excerpt from a review that gives an impression of Sun Tzu's intensity:
The fifth example is named after the Chinese philosopher-warrior, Sun Tzu. The "Sun Tzu" example is based on selective, instant decapitation of military or societal targets to achieve Shock and Awe. This discrete or precise nature of applying force differentiates this from Hiroshima and Massive Destruction examples. Sun Tzu was brought before Ho Lu, the King of Wu, who had read all of Sun Tzu's thirteen chapters on war and proposed a test of Sun's military skills. Ho asked if the rules applied to women. When the answer was yes, the king challenged Sun Tzu to turn the royal concubines into a marching troop. The concubines merely laughed at Sun Tzu until he had the head cut off the head concubine. The ladies still could not bring themselves to take the master's orders seriously. So, Sun Tzu had the head cut off a second concubine. From that point on, so the story goes, the ladies learned to march with the precision of a drill team.

This respectable looking site says rather plainly that the draft could be back in effect as early as the spring of 2005. I would fight, but not for this president.
In case you missed The Sopranos on Dave last night, here's the recap. you can watch the video of the list here. It was damn funny.

The Onion is going to some sort of pay-per-view tactic. In the meantime, enjoy this front page. The headline on the left side about the horse is hilarious.
...This just in- Your President and his staff are a bunch of war criminals. I say lock 'em up and toss the key. Powell is the only one who seems to have kept his head (though the FFC nepotismm issue is messed up).
Israel continues bullying. This time a three year old girl gets killed. Maybe her big wheel crossed into the wrong temple. Let's see... Israel is defying the UN (they say this is "completely, completely unacceptable). Israel is commiting a form of genocide. Israel has weapons of mass destruction. Forget Iraq, let's take over Israel.
HOLY FRIGGIN CRAP FILE: The Sopranos cast will be reading the Top Ten list on Letterman this Monday. BE THERE. My guess is that the cheering will make the jokes impossible to hear.

An entry-level staffer for Rep. Mike DeWine has a tell-all blog about her acts of prostitution with DC higher ups. This could blow up real big. I like her quote: "If you investigated every Staff Ass on the Hill, I am sure you would find out some freaky shit. No way can anybody live on such a low salary. I am convinced that the Congressional offices are full of dealers and hos."

I missed Laura Bush on Leno, but I hear it was awful. This article has a synopsis with an awesome "Laura Bush in the Specail Olympics" pic. Here's one guy's take on it:
May 20, 2004
Laura Bush on Leno
Laura Bush was on The Tonight Show last night and I really wish I had a copy of the transcript of this show. It was mindboggling. I don't know if Laura was trying to endear Georgie Boy to America but it came off as creepy and uncomfortable.
At one point Laura recalled a story when, after she had been warned by Barbara Bush never to criticize George's speeches, (hmm I wonder why) she finally did. She said as they pulled into their home, George asked her to be honest about how his speech went and she told him not too good. He then "ran the car into the garage door".
Say what? There was no explanation as to whether or not it was an accident or whether he just was so fucking pissed that anyone criticized him that he drove into the garage door. Nothing, just, "he drove us into the garage door". You'd think you might want to clarify something like that.
Also, I think another incredibly revealing part of the interview was when Laura said, "the purpose of political campaigns are to make the other guy look as bad as you can." Well Laura, I hate to break it to you but there's a large portion of society and still a few politicians that believe a political campaign should be about issues, ideals and platforms. Thanks though for summing up what your husband's campaing is about, not the issues, just about "making the other guy [Kerry] look as bad as possible".

Chris Merli
Hillside Elementary School, grade 5
When I opened my cereal box a tiny voice said, "I am the drummer of the midget band."
I turned the box over, and a little band came out and started to play the polka.
I said, "What in the world are you?"
He said, "I am from the town of Polka."
I said, "Where is that?"
He said, "It is west of Greenland."
After that, I became friends with the midget polka band. They were very weird in a way. Then my cat ate them because he thought they were little biscuits.
