Quit quipping at me. You're just mad because I reduced you to gurgling epithets in the aliens debate.

Evil Canadia Poisons The World
2000-01-05 16:27:51
Damn! I was all depressed and hungover after this Y2K thing happened. Life just seems not worth living when you have a chompanyah hangover and civilization is chugging right along as usual. Then I found out that evil Canadia is doing much EVIL in the world! Beaujolais! Canadia-bashing is my favorite sport! So I have something to live for!
The deal is like this: Canadia is like the Number One manufacturer or producer or whatever of the horrible chemmie known as ASBESTOS. Asbestos is, as we all know, really nasty and it gives you bad cancer and stuff. My grandfather used to work in an asbestos plant, and his hair turned GREEN. Really, no shit! Asbestos is bad, bad, bad dangerous evil shit.
Everybody wants to get rid of asbestos because it makes you real real sick. Even the Canadian Junta has declared that all its colonial government buildings and trading posts must be asbestos-free. They're spending kajillions of worthless Canadian pesos on the project. Even France, for example, BANNED asbestos use inside the borders of la Belle Pays in 1997, and a lot of other Euro-trash countries are following suit.
But GET THIS: the oppressive Canadian Junta is CHALLENGING the French asbestos ban in the secret Star Chambers of the well-known Bilderberger side project called the WTO. Why are the Canadians doing this? Because they HATE EVERYBODY. Well, also, because grouchy French Canadians in Quebec are mad that they're losing their poisonous toxic jobs in the asbestos mines, and the Junta is afraid of the plucky Quebecois, who have been known to commit atrocious acts of barbarism when they get hopped up on speed and split-pea soup.
So the Junta will cash in some Masonic New World Order chips with the WTO, and force all French people to eat ASBESTOS FLAKES for breakfast! And because of European unity then all the other Euro-states will have to wash their hair with asbestos shampoo and drive asbestos-upholstered BMWs, too! Damn! This is exactly why everyone HATES Canadia!

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...)

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.

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...)
