There is a very good chance now that the most powerful nation in the world is about to become an irrational killing machine, and I don't think it will know how to stop once it gets started.

CamWorld has Links
1999-01-13 19:22:00
So, I must say, "Ooh Ma Ma, there are a fuckload of links to links to links to links web sites out there now." And the reason I must say it is that it's true! And CamWorld is one of them.
Some people call them slashdot-style sites, some call them CHEK OUT MY LISTT OF KEWL LINKS!!!1!! sites. Whatever you call these things -- lists and lists of frequently-updated links to other people's crap -- you have to admit they're growing like a fleshy fungus. Hell, in some ways, Pigdog is one of them! (But in most ways, not.)
We're gonna try and cover as many of these sites as we can in the "Links to Links to..." category of Pigdog articles. Hell, this genre is ripe to be taken to the NEXT LEVEL, and you know that's what we do here at Pigdog.
Anyways, CamWorld. I would call this a memepool-style link-o-rama site: cryptic one-sentence blurbs about freak-o glossy "New Media"-style links, low production values, no flashy crap. Just pretty fair links. Hell, this is what the Web is all about, isn't it?
Cam linked to Pigdog, so I figure we should return the favor. There's dark feedback-loop implications, I know, but what the fuck. Gotta start somewhere.
I give CamWorld a B+, but that's just because I just started grading so I don't have much comparison to go on. If you can't get ENOUGH of that fucking A tag, and you want ANOTHER links to links to links to links site to diddle around with, go check out CamWorld, eh?

The Cross Canadian Ragweed Red Dirt Roundup
Went to one of the only really enjoyable outdoor concerts I can remember (maybe I didn't enjoy it enough). The finest in dirty hillbilly music: The Cross Canadian Ragweed Red Dirt Roundup. For those ignorants, Cross Canadian Ragweed is a horrendous allergan in Texas, and it's also a band. In a great show of humility, CCR was the worst major act in their line up. Fortunately, they have talented friends. (More...)

Many Americans have learned to appreciate the delicate, sophisticated flavors of Japanese food and drink, along with the beautifully refined rituals of Japanese dining.
