I read this book once called "The Baghdad Blogger"... I thought it was gonna be some Jack the Ripper thing... turned out to be some guy who liked Portishead. The sort of guy you'd go for a pint with, but would prefer not to read a bloody book about.

Apple's deep dark secret: churchofsatan.com was made with a Macintosh! My goodness, can you really build Web sites with a Mac?
Apple Computer, Inc. claims that churchofsatan.com's use of a "Made with Macintosh" logo on the site constitutes dilution of trademark. To protect themselves, they have brought legal pressure to bear to get the Church of Satan to remove any Apple references from their site.
What's next? Will Apple's rabid attack lawyers demand that the Book of Genesis be rewritten to disassociate the serpent/Satan with the apple from the Tree of Knowledge? I guess I shouldn't give them any ideas.
The interesting question is: what sounds more like Satan? Would it be a bunch of neo-Nietzcheists who like to dress up in black and have cool parties, or would it be an inhuman corporation at work in the world without fear of repercussion from human law, manipulating that law to force others into constant submission and inspiring cult-like loyalty with cunning and devious lies and shady promises about the effects of the enslavement to their products. Hmmm? No offense to the Satanists, but Apple's got the schtick down cold.
Shemhamforash!

This was an old standby back in my poor college days. Back then the goal was to get butt fucking wasted for as little money as possible. The problem was we hated dirt cheap beer - and some weekends, even Henry's was far more lucre then we could scratch together. So we invented Red. (More...)

Christmas day, for the last 17 or so years has bored me. I find that the real fun and excitement always takes place on Christmas Eve. Every other year, it's the excitement of the metaphorical hunt instead of the kill. Otherwise, it's just plain bad craziness. (More...)
