What's For Lunch At Cafe Columbine?
2000-11-17 15:29:08
It was only a matter of time. The infamous Columbine High School cafeteria closed-circuit videotape has found it's way onto the Internet, despite the objections and pleas of the families of the victims, to feed your unquenchable morbid curiosity.
But let's not dwell on the ethical issues. It's online, and nothing can change that. Instead, as you watch the videotape, think about some of these overlooked points as the controversial footage plays on your monitor:
1. Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold should have built test bombs, before deploying the ones they had all over the school.
2. Harris and Klebold were terrible shots. They certainly would have benefited from taking basic marksman courses offered by their local NRA chapter.
3. No one was killed because they dared to say "Yes" the question "Do you believe in Jesus?" but I am a firm believer that the two families on the fundamentalist Christian lecture circuit should be shot for claiming that their kids were killed for that reason.
4. The videotape really isn't all that exciting.

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.
