I'm torn.



I don't know whether to be completely in awe of the thoroughness of this or ashamed to be part of a culture that wants to make McDonald's food at home.

An homage to Jonathan.



Jonathan is my co-worker and creator of (in my opinion) the most sublime blog in the history of time, The Pantsblog (link in the right column). He's going to be absolutely giddy as a schoolgirl when he discovers the power of pants as a communication tool.

Ah, Jimmy. Somebody busted you, man.

A nice little article about my trio buddies.



A nice feature article by Nick Carter about the "Who's Your Daddy?" trio (Dan Trudell, Mike Standal and Dave Bayles). They play Thursday nights at The Estate. It came out a cuppla weeks ago, but it just occured to me to post it... duh.

Aww. 'Member "Kolchak, The Night Stalker"?



I used to love this show. I think I was in the 3rd or 4th grade when it was on (and cancelled). Trio's "Brilliant But Cancelled" series lets me relive the childhood memory of this and a lot of other shows that were good and never repeated. Ace.

Kind of an intriguing little project.

R.I.P. Wes.



If you haven't heard Wesley Willis, I can't describe him to you. There is NO describing Wesley Willis' music. You have to hear it to believe it. Just follow the yellow brick links 'til you get to some MP3s. (Caution: language NSFW.)



He's the only person I've ever heard that I think deserves the following post-mortem tribute, posted to zfilter:



You will be missed, you crazy, crazy motherfucker.

The internet still regularly amazes me.



It probably shouldn't anymore. But it does.

Ah. If only all political commentary was this funny.



This little gem, from Jorge at okgo.net, arrived in my mailbox this morning:



Arnold Schwarzenegger Goes Straight To Video



Arnold Schwarzenegger, a little known California politician, has made the first commercial of his gubernatorial campaign available on his website. It's not the surprisingly violent finger jabbing that scares me; it's the fact that the ad makes it look like the man has fangs. I also wish they could have found a more flattering photograph of Maria Shriver for the homepage:

Join Arnold!



Who should you vote for, given the opportunity? The porn star, of course. Apologies to the more sensitive among you, but please admit that she has some brilliant planks in her platform, including taxing breast implants and limiting jury duty to the unemployed. It's all right here:

Mary Carey for Governor

This is BRILLIANT.



Thanks, T!

As an adult, I don't get too giddy about TV shows any more. I just assume they will disappoint or be cancelled prematurely if they're decent. But, I must confess, I'm feeling a little tingley (in a good way) about the new "Smoking Gun TV" that debuts next week. If it's even half as funny and nurtures even half the schadenfreude that the web site does, I'm going to have to get DVR.



I only hope they don't put it on opposite West Wing. That would just be cruel.

I love Bradley thousands.



My favorite quote this week (possibly of this year) is his:



"I hate people so much that sometimes it makes me hum real loud.



HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM."

I hate spammers so much.

I can't begin to tell you how much I hate spammers.



So, I get no end of pleasure knowing that the names of the losers who actually order penis-enlargement pills are now public because of pathetic vendor security. (via MeFi and Wired)
