Steal Ben Stein's Money!
2000-01-13 15:53:49
Jeeze, a lot of people these days are real selfish with their money. But not Ben Stein. Almost everyday he goes on TV and gives everyday people just like you and me a chance to take home some of his money. That's why it makes me so mad when some people aren't willing to play by the rules. They could have gone on Comedy Central and gotten a chance to get Ben Steins money fair and square. But noooooo, they had hold him up in his garage with a hand gun!
They took all his money and his watch and his briefcase. Ummm, people, the name of the game is not "Win Ben Stein's Personal Possessions!" I bet they really sucked at playing Trivial Pursuit as children. You know, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Ben Stein didn't want to give people an opportunity to win his money any more. I mean you give and give and give and people just want to take and take and take.
Too bad he won't be able to bring charges against the guys who did it. There's no way he could prove that he didn't want to give them that money-- not after everyone in the world watched him give it away on national television over and over again. Not to mention they fact that they didn't actually hurt him. Sure they accosted him in his own garage and waved a gun in his face, but he could have resisted if he wanted to.
And what did he expect? Walking around with $1,000 and his paycheck in his wallet! I just hope he's learned his lesson the little whore....

Johnnie Royale's Guide to Wakes
Wakes can present problems for Bad People of the Future. (If you don't know what a BPotF is, you need to read more of the PDJ.) Sure, your friend is gone and you miss him and that really sucks; it does, I know. But all Bad People of the Future are gonna die, and they have all accepted that fact. They do deserve, however, to have one final kickass party to celebrate all the bad things they've done in the past, present and future. And you, as a friend, have to make sure that their desire for a final send off is well executed (sorry for the pun). That's just the way of BPotFdom. (More...)
Vacationing from Somnambulant Narrow Realities
So about six months ago, I was chilling in Chang Mai, Thailand with ICBINJ, perursing the Bangkok Times over my banana pancake and Big Chang breakfast when I spotted this article reprinted from the LA Times. It was about some kooks from California (where else?) who were claiming to have been to the front lines in Afgahnistan in mid-December and had recorded the whole feat on their website. "Holy Fuck!" I thought, "Now That's web journalism. Who are these guys!?" (More...)
