If everyone jumped off the Empire State building, it wouldn't hurt after a while.

Journalists arriving in the heart of the French Capital find quiet streets and life pretty much as normal. So how does one get the big story and some good fire footage? The PigDog Journal's European Coörespondant helps out.

InfoAnarchy is a nice little weblog with cute graphics and a pleasant, appealing style that seeks the violent overthrow of the US government.

I never really believed things could get this bad.

Teachers don't want kids in school with guns? OK. Teachers don't want violent kids in schools? OK. Teachers don't want kids who play with their food in a threatening way in school... what? I've heard of logical slippery slopes before, but this is NUTS.

It’s election night. My wife and I are holed-up in this hotel that my political party has rented out for the evening. Outside, people are being violently beaten for whom they voted for. Is this South Africa? Perhaps we’re in Haiti or some Southern state during the 60’s. Of all the places where this sort of thing happens, it’s mind-boggling that we are in Portland, Maine.

It was only a matter of time. The infamous Columbine High School cafeteria closed-circuit videotape has found it's way onto the Internet, despite the objections and pleas of the families of the victims, to feed your unquenchable morbid curiosity.

Earlier in the week, before the election, when the newscasts were naming Florida as a pivotal state in the election, I thought back to a book I'd read a few years ago. A book which documented vote fraud on a massive scale in Florida over a 20 year period. The book named names, dates, and places where vote fraud took place within the state and the author's attempts to expose that fraud.

The Rev lays it down on leading the Free World and spreading, uh, oil on the waters and shit.

Disregarding the law is all well and good, but you know, sometimes common sense should tell you to just read the signs, you know?

During their reign of terror & power, the Nazis set about to purge Germany of all, "corrupted" and "degenerate" forms of culture. Now, several generations later, modern-day purveyors of hate have embraced the very things that those before them wanted to destroy.

You lazy no-good cheese-ass piece of shit motherfucker. Did you even fucking register? I will gouge out your eyeballs and skullfuck you.

A 350-pound man is tied, naked and spread-eagled, to the roof of a Ford Explorer.
It's just another commute in North Carolina.

When Republican Presidential Candidates start crowd surfing or diving into a mosh pit, it's time to close up shop.

I feel so damn old today after reading the news. Not because of any of the usual things that I hear out of my peer's mouths, but because of what happened at Columbine High School this week.

I always get a kick out of all the suckers that have bought into the whole Burning Man idea, that they'll buy everything about it hook, line, and sinker. Especially those who think that Burning Man is a new & original idea. Sorry to burst your bubble, but it isn't.

Let's face it: Shockwave for the most part is a waste of time and technology. But every now and then, someone (like the folks programming in all the old classic arcade games) figures out a fantastic use for it. This is one of them.

Regular Pigdog readers will recall that last year, an article was published here that managed to turn Adbusters into mortal enemies. The article in question dared to take their (possibly stolen) holy cow, "Buy Nothing Day", and grind it up into delicious hamburger. It's a pleasure to have recently discovered that the feelings of despise for this feel-good circle-jerk are spreading like wildfire.

Man, and I thought the deadliest thing about cabbies was their driving! These S. African minivan taxi operators are trying to take out the competition with used handguns, shotguns and heavy caliber weapons. Haven't they ever heard of PRICE wars? You're supposed to undermine them with better deals and polite service, not blow their heads off!

Beat artist Byron Gysin correctly observed that writing is years behind painting, when it comes to expressing human emotion and experience. Very little writing really can really capture a moment like painting does. Lovecraft knew this. Bangs knew this. And William S Burroughs especially knew this. And together with Gysin, they created a new tool for the modern writer and journalist- the cutup.

Try to imagine this: six million people around the globe. All dancing to the same music, all getting along, all happy, and all for a good cause. Impossible you say? Read on.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I personally have had my fill of dogma sandwiches in the past few months. I'm don't need another trip to the all-you-can-eat "let's-educate-millions" buffet.

Adbusters is once again sponsoring BUY NOTHING DAY this Friday, November 27th. That's the day after Thanksgiving, which is traditionally the most frantic consumer-schlock-acquisition day of the year. Buy Nothing Day is an excellent way to say "Fuck You" to the architects of an economy based on people like you and me going into crippling debt in order to buy glitzy useless shit.

So, ironic as it is, one of the few places in this ugly world that bad people's voices can be heard is in the voting booth. Go in today and vote for bad people with horrendous agendas. Vote for evil people so society collapses faster. Or vote for good people so that everyone knows that we exist. But, ESPECIALLY, vote on propositions and initiatives -- corrupt and evil as they are, this is the embryo of direct democracy. If you flaked hard and don't even know where your polling place is, go to SmartVoter and find it, eh?

The Deep Dark Underbelly of the Star Wars Myth, or Ramayana Remembered
It's a fact: Star Wars is a blatant plagiarism of an ancient Asian legend, and the long lines of devout Star Wars freaks are really unscrupulous Asian copyright busters. From Indonesia to Thailand to Nepal, videos are available for sale or rent before they're even released in the US and UK due to this nerdy camcorder-clutching bunch. (More...)
This was an old standby back in my poor college days. Back then the goal was to get butt fucking wasted for as little money as possible. The problem was we hated dirt cheap beer - and some weekends, even Henry's was far more lucre then we could scratch together. So we invented Red. (More...)

Three Days and 25 Spocktails: A Cautionary Tale
Johnnie Royale picked me up from the dental surgery. I felt warm, safe, cradled in the anathesia's loving embrace. The pharmacy downstairs gave me a bottle of Vicodin and a few instructions: take it with food, don't mix with alcohol, don't operate heavy machinery. I put it in my pocket and we left. "Do you want to go home, or do you want to go to a bar?" asked Johnnie. (More...)
