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!

WKRP in Cincinnati aired from 1978 through 1982. Howard Hesseman played Dr. Johnny Fever, a DJ from Los Angeles who was fired from his previous job for saying the word "booger" on the air. In the show Hesseman would do some dialogue, introduce a song, and start the song. You'd hear a few notes, but never the whole song. (More...)
SF Hippies Can't Get Their Act Together
The annual 420 Hippie Hill event in Golden Gate Park, where large crowds of hippies, wannabe hippies, and hippie poseurs drape themselves in tie dye t-shirts and gather on a hill on 4/20 to smoke weed, was cancelled this year because the organizers couldn't get their act together. (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...)
I just came across this coolio essay by Pigdog Journal Science Editor binky wedged between two staves in the back corner of the submissions barrel. It's on the origin of the cyberbilly and is definitely de rigeur for any serious student of this fascinating sociological movement. (More...)

Paranoid Strippers & Psychotic Crack Dealers (Tales of Christmas Eve)
Christmas day, for the last 17 or so years has bored me. I find that the real fun and excitement always takes place on Christmas Eve. Every other year, it's the excitement of the metaphorical hunt instead of the kill. Otherwise, it's just plain bad craziness. (More...)
