World's Only Jake Busey Fan Site
1998-11-17 02:24:00
I dunno. I just really don't know. It seems to me that with all the resources we've got on this big ol' World Wide Web, all the talent and creativity we have at our disposal, that someone, somewhere, could make a Jake Busey Fan Page that's worth a goddamn. But I guess that's not the case.
There's a link at the bottom of this page, and you can see Trav's home page, The World's Only Jake Busey Fan Site. Now, Trav's got a lot of enthusiasm, but he doesn't have a lot worth saying. And that's a crying shame.
I for one think this is a sad state of affairs. I mean, there's gotta be about 7 million Leonardo DiCaprio fan sites out there, and not a Jake Busey fan site worth crap.
OK, I've got an idea. Here's what you can do to help. We need to start a letter-writing campaign. I have compiled a list of the email addresses of a whole bunch of people who have Leonardo DiCaprio fan sites. Everyone who reads this needs to send them email to the effect of:
"Dear Webmaster: Did you know that while there are several thousand Leonardo DiCaprio fan sites, there aren't any Jake Busey fan sites worth a goddamn? Doesn't that kind of bother you? Maybe you should take some of your enthusiasm for Leonardo DiCaprio and make a Jake Busey fan site instead. Leonardo DiCaprio is great and all, but it's just a crying shame there's not a Jake Busey site out there. Signed, A Concerned Citizen."
Hell, you could even cut and paste that text. Go ahead. What the hell.
OK, here's some addresses:

If we all do it, at least one or two of these people is gonna switch. I'm telling you, it's gonna happen. You have to believe.
Anyways, send your letters, and check out Trav's page, too. Give him props because at least he's out there keepin' it real.

John Dvorak has passed. I’m of mixed emotions. First off I’m more positive about his contribution to the overall technology journalism of the early PC days through the 90s, despite how many things he got wrong. He was a firebrand and commanded attention. (More...)

Australian Troops Set for Days of Debauchery to the Tunes of Kylie Minogue
This weekend Australian troops in East Timor will be able to put their feet up and push all the images of mass graves and charred remains from their minds as they relax to the giddy melodies of Kylie Minogue - including exclusive unplugged performances in the militia-ravaged and blood-spattered border towns of Balibo and Suai.

The Ancient and Correct Sake Ceremony
Many Americans have learned to appreciate the delicate, sophisticated flavors of Japanese food and drink, along with the beautifully refined rituals of Japanese dining. San Francisco, as a gateway between East and West, has especially benefited from the flowering of Eastern consciousness in America. It is hardly possible to walk down the street without stepping on somebody's sushi. (More...)
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.

During a magnificent sunny day in a fast receding autumn, the Spock Science Monitor reporters once again blew the playa dust off of their computers and covered the 2002 Burning Man Decompression – held every year just east of Portola Hill in beautiful San Francisco. Both an afternoon and evening issues were released to the unsuspecting crowd of freaks attempting to in some small way experience the euphoria of the playa – if but for a brief afternoon far from the desolation of Northern Nevada.

Ah, it's that special time of year again. Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, crowded, dangerous streets filled with maniac shoppers rushing to the mall to buy Pokemon action figures, and getting hammered at the Xmas party and insulting the boss's hair weave. That's right: it's time to drink heavily and wait out life's little nagging miseries, holiday variety. Pigdog is here to help. (More...)
The Deep Dark Underbelly of the Star Wars Myth, or Ramayana Remembered
It's a fact: Star Wars is a blatant plagiarism of an ancient Asian legend, and the long lines of devout Star Wars freaks are really unscrupulous Asian copyright busters. From Indonesia to Thailand to Nepal, videos are available for sale or rent before they're even released in the US and UK due to this nerdy camcorder-clutching bunch. (More...)
