Fixer-Upper
Reported 2017-11-10 22:30:04
By Lenny Tuberose
Shithole. If you cleaned it up some. Ness had been in worse though. He coughed—something cool and thick rose into the back of his mouth and he spat reflexively. A scurrilous wad of mucus tinged with blood landed heavily with a wet unsavory sonance to lie like a stillborn slug. The cough was accompanied by a searing pain in his chest, but the intimation of the mortality bearing down on him left no mark upon him. The viscid love letter from the cancer in his lungs quivered briefly and then was still. It seemed at home there among the refused and casually discarded constituency of debris.
Shithole. (More...)

IE6 Down for the Count
Reported 2011-03-04 17:33:54
By Baron Earl
Microsoft finally admits it: Internet Explorer 6 is a shitty, shitty browser. According to the new Microsoft web site The Internet Explorer 6 Countdown: "Friends don't let friends use Internet Explorer 6. And neither should acquaintances. Educate others about moving off of Internet Explorer 6." By educate they mean "move to IE9", but why not give these poor IE6 users a real helping hand, and help move them to Firefox or Chrome?

CIA "Family Jewels" More Like "Numb Nuts"
Reported 2007-06-29 15:47:31
By Reverend CyberSatan
When I first heard that the CIA was about to release
several hundred pages of previously classified
material that would shed light on its various
operations, I laughed hard enough to scare the clown
next to me into a career as a mime. I'd seen
declassified material before. Most of it involved
pages with vast swaths of black redaction clouding any
seriously useful information. Between the blackness
were little glimpses of wretched wrongness that no one
in their right mind would take credit for having
engineered, funded, imagined, and/or perpetrated.
Somehow, the thought of the Bush/Cheney White House
permitting a whole new, potentially more incriminating
disgorgement from the CIA was not only implausible but
utterly ridiculous. (More...)

Torture: It's not just for witches anymore!
Reported 2007-05-17 20:26:29
By Baron Earl
During the second Republican Presidential Debate each of the candidates was given a hypothetical "impending doom from terrorists" scenario and asked if they would use torture to extract information from prisoners who might have some information about a possible imminent attack. The answers ranged from "yes" to "absolutely yes" to Mitt Romney's "yes, as long as we refer to torture as 'enhanced interrogation techniques'." John McCain was the lone dissenter stating categorically "no". Too bad John McCain doesn't know his history. Torture was used to stop terrorism here before there was a USA. In 1692 the town of Salem, Massachusetts was being terrorized, and they successfully used torture to stop the terror.

The MAN-tini
Reported 2007-01-04 20:37:19
By Baron Earl
It was New Year's Eve and I wanted a signature drink I could hand to my guests. Something that they would accept with no fuss, drink quickly, and then want another. A drink simple enough that I could explain the recipe quickly -- thereby annointing each new guest as a bartender capable of making the drink -- and freeing me to enjoy myself. So I created The MAN-tini... (More...)

Christmas Claims Godfather of Soul
Reported 2006-12-27 10:37:15
By Reverend CyberSatan
So, the other half of Christmas was the 5 Liberty bash, which was once again off the hood. Never mind the generous loot that befell certain perceptive, lucky, and quick-witted friends of yours. The company was sublime and kept me there until sometime after three-thirty. Somehow, I just wasn't ready to go to bed. (More...)
