Pigdog Journal Articles
2002-10-11
So, yeah, this is the part of Pigdog where Mr. Bad rants incomprehensibly about Esperanto, the Official Language of Bad People of the Future. Or where other Pigdog authors put up links to harsh critiques of Esperanto, or where El Snatcher puts up Protocols-of-the-Elders-of-Zion-style incomprehensible Esperanto conspiracy slurs. So what's the news in Esperanto-land? toki pona.

Yet more Esperanto fun for the crazy Esperanto set! You know who you are, you swingers you! I love the lot of you! Serious! I mean it! Let's do lunch and shit.

Bujholej! I'm pleased to report yet another fine RealAudio Internet radio show. But this one is in ESPERANTO. Bonege!

It's the latest thing! Kerjillions of madmen and freaks are combining the universal interlanguage ESPERANTO with the universal operating system LINUX! Insanity, by definition, must ensue!

Hot diggity DAMN! I thought I'd seen everything, until I saw DAVID RADIKULO, Esperantist wiccan BLUESMAN! I FUCKING love this TOWN!

Well, I just got finished writing a 12-paragraph rant about morning radio shows, and my browser crashed just as I was trying to submit it. I'm too pissed off to re-write it right now, so I'm going to punish all of you and put up another Esperanto link.

Check it out! You haven't heard the news until you've heard it in Esperanto from Radio Tallinnin! Yeah, baby!

So years before he was known as Capt. James T. Kirk, William Shatner starred in this movie called "Incubus." What makes this film worth noting, is that the entire dialog is in Esperanto! No, I'm not kidding! Esperanto!

The annual 420 Hippie Hill event in Golden Gate Park, where large crowds of hippies, wannabe hippies, and hippie poseurs drape themselves in tie dye t-shirts and gather on a hill on 4/20 to smoke weed, was cancelled this year because the organizers couldn't get their act together. (More...)

About 14 years ago when I was on a road trip and stopped in Seattle, I was invited to a party. At this party there were these little tiny glasses sitting in a flat-bottomed bowl of ice. Thin cylinders about an inch in diameter and 4 inches tall, with thick glass at the bottom. Into these were poured frozen AKVAVIT... also known as the water of life. (More...)
Clowns Take on God in Mysterious Annual Ceremony
Last Sunday's (the 6th) Grimaldi Service at a small church in East London was a red-letter day for clowns worldwide.

Albany, CA's homeless hooverville by the Bay, "Hobo Junction," is going to be torn down by The Man. Entrances are already being blocked off, and it's now difficult and dangerous to get there.
