It took the California Court of Appeals to determine that pissing in public in a parking lot no less is indeed illegal.

Of course the individual arrested was not upset that he was arrested for pissing in public but rather the cops who arrested him found six rocks of crack in his pocket. Of course since he was arrested in California he was sentenced to three years’ probation.

Some of the best science starts with the words "Gee, that's funny..."

Much of science ends with the words "So, what exactly did you do before the lab exploded?"

But most memorable science starts with "Hey, watch this!"

You know you have no life when you are watching the TV show "24" and before a characters body hits the ground, you are on Wikipedia updating the characters bio to reflect he was killed off on the show. The character Edgar Stiles died at 59 minutes after the top of the hour and according to the Wikipedia history at 01:58 GMT an update was made to reflect the characters death.

It is confirmed Fall Out Boy sucks. So the song "Sugar, We’re Going Down" plays on the radio all the time and I thought the song sucked. Then I watched Fall Out Boy perform the song on SNL and I knew the song sucked. One of the biggest problems I had is half the time the lead singer just made up words that don’t exist.

Here is a clue to the lead singer, Patrick Stump – if you forget the words to the song, do not attempt to make up new words that do not exist and it does not hurt to make and effort to enunciate once in a while.

Your SNL performance just proved that without a ton of post-mixing your song sounds like even more crap than it already is.

Who even let these amateurs on SNL in the first place.

Remember, DO NOT stick it in teh crazy. If you are unsure of what teh crazy means watch this The video is of Natalie Portman rapping for a SNL Digital Short on the night she was host, proving she is teh crazy. It is perfectly fine to look at the teh crazy but do not ever stick it in teh crazy it is of vital importance.

Since most people do not under subtlety, the following is a JOKE.

So I finally watched Fahrenheit 9/11. I now know one thing for sure, I am definitely not voting for George Walker Bush in 2008.

Those who can’t do, become teachers and those who can’t do or teach become financial analysts

VHS is dead. People need to come to reality with it and move on. Most movies are on the DVD format only. That is right, stop complaining to the video clerk about how they do not have any VHS tapes, they are not made anymore, and it is not possible for the video clerk to buy something that does not exist. So just buy a damn DVD player, they cost less than $40.

Who would want a VHS copy over a DVD? DVDs come in widescreen so you can watch the movie as the director intended, 5.1 surround sound and even if you do not listen in surround the audio is still clearer and more vibrant sounding, and most importantly a DVD does not degrade in quality every time you watch it.

So, you still want a VHS copy of the movie. If you even find a VHS copy of the movie you want, I hope you enjoy only watching only half the movie with muddy audio. I also hope you do not plan to watch it many times because before long, the video will be snowy, the VCR will be unable to adjust for the bad tracking and the audio will hiss, that is of course assuming the VCR does not chew the VHS tape thereby destroying the VHS tape.

1969. Back when we were building things. Inventing things. Making things better. We were actually investing in the future then.

Now it would require a "business case" before anyone would be allowed a moment to think about CCD image sensors, much less build them. Some rat fuck middle management asscrack would probably write the group up for "unauthorized use of business resources" and start drawing up requests for department-wide layoffs.

That's of course assuming brilliant people like these men who could "after maybe an hour's work, we went over to the blackboard and we had some sketching there. We went down to our models lab and made one" would get hired in the first place. They'd be declared "overqualified" or lacking "marketable skills" before they were even interviewed.

We were on the doorstep of the solar system almost 40 years ago. Now we're all parked in front of plasma televisions bought on 28% credit watching "reality shows." Talk about toilet-ramming the future. This is what happens when entire generations of education are wasted on purpose. What a fucking waste.

As I sit here watching The Weather Man I keep wondering, how Nicolas Cage keeps getting parts in movies? I think he get parts the same way Morgan Freeman gets parts. In the case of Morgan Freeman, the script writer puts in a part for a wise old guy and Morgan Freeman just shows up for filming. In the case of Nicolas Cage, a script writer includes a part for an insecure and neurotic person with way too many facial tics and Nicolas Cage just shows up on the set. Nicolas Cage is as bad of an actor as Tom Cruise in that neither of them can act, they show up to the set, read the lines for the movie and play themselves in every single movie they do. Guess what, there is a new movie out with Nicolas Cage and he is playing the part of Nicolas Cage.
