It's a Scary Baby Conspiracy, Baby
1999-07-12 23:56:04
Now this is the way to do a "Look at the scary, ugly people" site. Besides, we all know that babies are kind of weird and creepy. It's true. You wouldn't want to kiss one if you weren't related to it, and they create frightening noises and smells.
So this Dan Gillies guy takes pictures of babies and puts them through some twisted image filters and when they come out the other side, they are some crazy scary babies! Gillies' babies are like nightmare H.R. Giger creations, and for some reason, probably because they are BABIES, the result is something that is so nasty and horrible that you want to squash it with your foot.
He even has a Charlie Manson baby, and fire-breathing devil-eared babies, and pictures of babies that aren't even digitally altered but are just freaking scary because they're too cute. My only problem with this site is that there just aren't enough scary babies shown here. It's a well-known fact that there are untold millions of perfectly scary, nasty babies out loose in the world, and a site called "scarybaby.com" should be able to keep tabs on them better, before they eat our sheep.
There's even a Scary Baby mailing list, so you can keep up with all the latest Scary Baby action.

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.

It’s election night. My wife and I are holed-up in this hotel that my political party has rented out for the evening. Outside, people are being violently beaten for whom they voted for. Is this South Africa? Perhaps we’re in Haiti or some Southern state during the 60’s. Of all the places where this sort of thing happens, it’s mind-boggling that we are in Portland, Maine. (More...)

Spock Went, Spock Wrote, Spock Kicked Ass
Every Labor Day weekend a large portion of the PDJ staff joins 30,000 other freaks at one of the biggest and strangest art festivals in the world - Burning Man - somewhere on the edge of the Black Rock Desert. Our base of operations is always the ultra swank Spock Mountain Research Labs - the World Leaders in Beverage Science and Leisure Technology. This year, we hauled up our computers, printers and a massive digital duplicator, determined to become Black Rock City's third daily newspaper. Even Spock was surprised by our success - news will never be viewed the same on the playa. Read all seven issues of the 2002 Spock Science Monitor for yourself and see why. (More...)
