When the stars are right

Sunday, December 23rd, 2001

Recently, there have been two major world events of note. We elected our newest and bestest President. But in other news, scientists have discovered a new lifeform. “Baffles and Amuses Scientists”? No doubt a sign of their newfound madness. For what they have awoken has been lying dormant since the beginning of time.

These two seemingly unrelated events may appear independent. But when you look closely, you find connections. Everywhere.

And in true American form, we have found a way to make a buck off the end of the world.

Microsoft’s Real Plan for World Domination

Sunday, December 23rd, 2001

So, I have this new theory. It’s about Microsoft. You see, I don’t think they’re going to dominate the world through their ruthless business practices or through their bundling of competitors technology.

Since our government has decided that these aren’t really important issues, it must be something else.

Indeed it’s something much more insidious then any of the above. They’re going to get everyone hooked on PowerPoint.

And then godzilla came and did battle with the UFOs

I have no idea what this site says. Apparently it’s his theory about how UFOs (and most likely their little green pilots) were involved with the September 11th attack. At least by overlaying the pictures with technical sounding jargon like framenumbers and what not it looks almost plausible. Until you think about it.

Is your son a computer hacker?

You never know. They’re hiding everywhere, but with help you can help keep America great.

There he is! No.. wait.. over there!

Apparently, we’re having troubles finding camels over in Afghanistan now. No doubt they’re using some of the same cloaking technology that bin Laden got hold of.

Cynical? Or just tactless… Whatever the case may be get some of your loved ones one of these for christmas.

Holistic Computer Medicine

Saturday, December 8th, 2001
Now this is funny. It’s almost good enough to be serious. There’s enough important sounding gobbly gook there. Arthur C. Clarke once said any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. As computers become more advanced we’re sure to see this happening for real soon.
