No one wants to eat after the faeries have slobbered all over the cookies.
I do not avoid faeries, Mandrake, but I do deny them my vital essence.

Hey, I've been a big fan of JenniCam since way way back. Hell, I even like JedCam. But I've got to tell you, I'm now hooked on Here and Now.
Here and Now is a live WebCam set in a house shared by 6 college students in some non-descript university somewhere shitty in the midwest. They lounge around, watch TV, and -- gasp -- TALK on the Web. Covered, live, 24-7-365. It's like a combo between "The Real World" and that live porn condo in Florida.
We've all seen this before: blah blah blah, look at me, I'm on the Web, here's a camera pointed at my ass, watch me pee, watch me play Quake, watch me gar gar gar. Been there, done that, right?
But Here and Now is cooler than your average WebCam for various reasons. A), they have about 200 times the production quality of your average WebCam site. Sure, you lose that personal touch, but this shit looks REAL GOOD. B), they use RealVideo, so, like, you can see what's happening EVERY SECOND of the day and nobody can run out of the room, make a sandwich, and come back to fake the same pose in 120 seconds. C), and most important, since they have an audio track too they can play POUNDING TECHNO MUSIC all the time!!
This is so cool! Just yesterday I watched this kinda homely hippy girl scratch her butt in her sleep for an hour while THUMPING ATARI TEENAGE RIOT pounded through my computer speakers. My guess is that she couldn't hear it.
Anyways, go dig on Here and Now. It's cool.

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...)
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.

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.

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...)
