The problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind.

I'm Proud to be GATT, Y'all, and that's a FACT, Y'all

Check it out! Weirdness and bizarre brainfucking from the WTO! Web devolution is the only solution! Freak out the squares! Beaujolais!
Man, I gots to say, I like these RTMark guys. There's something about cybersquatting as a subversive act that has gen-you-wine appeal. Names are powerful! Misuse the intellectual property system! is kind of the message as I understand it.
They did a superb job of creating fear and loathing with their gwbush.com site earlier this year -- a Web site that ostensibly represents blechy loser George W. Bush, but in reality exposes his horrible hypocrisy and lies. HAR HAR! Stupid George Bush got all hopping mad about the fact that they'd seized his name and used it against him, but it turned out to be fair use and so SCREW GWB. HAR HAR again!
Anyways, these RTMark boys are back in the ring to take another swing. This time, it's all about that crazy WTO stuff. What they did is create this sicko GATT.org (GATT is the Global Agreement on Trade and Tariffs -- it's the masterpiece that the WTO is spending all their star chamber time working on) and it's all full of bad crazyiness and cruel jokes at the NWO's expense. The site, based around a mutual fund investment metaphor, chronicles practically every backlash and uprising in the sad but beautiful Western world.
Beaujolais! Go see the madness! You might learn something.

Clowns Take on God in Mysterious Annual Ceremony
Last Sunday's (the 6th) Grimaldi Service at a small church in East London was a red-letter day for clowns worldwide.

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.
