I took a Career Guidance test in high school. I checked off that I hated everything, but that working outside was tolerable. The computer software suggested that I become a Postal Carrier.

Mandrills Create Their Own Web Site!
1999-06-08 20:04:10
Those Goddamned Mandrills are at it again! And this time they've got a WEB SITE!
Everybody knows that mandrills are real dangerous, because 1) they have big blue butts, 2) they scream and jump around, and 3) they throw their poo at you! Man, what a DEADLY COMBINATION that is!
But now, some sick bastardo has taught a bunch of mandrills how to use Linux, and they created their own damn WEB SITE. As far as sites go, it's pretty OK. I mean, HELL, you know what they say about the dancing bear and stuff. They don't even make a big deal about being apes and shit.
From what I can tell, the mandrills' main interests lean towards kracking computer games, spazzing out about Star Track, and watching pro wrestling. Pretty much what you'd expect, right? The crazy part is that they also like to make MANDRILL TECHNO music! They even have an IceCast server so you can listen to live MANDRILL TECHNO performances on the Web, as they make them! IN-FUCKING-CREDIBLE!
Sure, it's not Internet Radio Pigdog, but it's really not half bad. You can't hold mandrills to that high a standard. So definitely take a bag of mandrill treats over to the site and give them much kudos!

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...)
