As far as I can tell, my salary is for useful programming, and the options are for total lines of code. Which given the current stock price, seems fair and just for everyone.

Pigdog Mourns Bourbon Fire

GAR
This is such a senseless waste... I don't even know where to start.
That 20,000 gallons of Wild Turkey are in flames isn't the worse part. Bad as it is... acidents happens. (Tho' if they ever prove that this fire wasn't an accident... there will be a bounty on the head of those that set it.)
What pisses me off the is that _they_ decided that a little booze in the local water system is a bad thing. Man, I dream about getting a bourbon and water straight from the tap... and when it actually happens they close down the town. FUCKERS.
For those of you that have been around Pigdog for any length of time you know that I dispise alcohol abuse... and I have never, ever, in my life seen such waste and abuse of alcohol. I wear black, I mourn.

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.

My dear and close friend, Porn Maven Shannon Mariemont, sent me a titillating message the other day about her new project: the PornOrchestra. Her desire, at most, is to reinvent the porn soundtrack and, at least, to receive a cease-and-desist order like all her cool friends did last year. (More...)

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
