Here's an interesting item that just showed up in our mailbag. Seems some freaks in Germany are convinced that Pigdog is part of the great Tellytubbie Conspiracy. I'm figuring that some WebCrawler ran across this wonderful old RatSnatcher article, and we ended up in some half-assed marketing daturbase. And the funny thing is that he insists that this is piece of SPAM is confidential information. No, I'm sorry Robert, if you want something to remain confidential with Pigdog, you ask us first and maybe, just maybe, we'll agree to let you be one of our sooper serkit confidential information sources. But don't ever tell us to do anything... like delete an email, or not copy it or even email you to unsubscribe us from your damn SPAM list. You unsubscribe us. Cause if you sending us unsolicited email - you should know, we're JOURNALISTS GODDMANNIT, and we'll publish WHATEVER the hell we want! Oh, and one more thing, Robert... Tellytubbies suck a big gooey wad of hate and I'm laughing at you because you have to deal with them all day long. Enjoy your small pathetic life, Robert.

John Dvorak has passed. I’m of mixed emotions. First off I’m more positive about his contribution to the overall technology journalism of the early PC days through the 90s, despite how many things he got wrong. He was a firebrand and commanded attention. (More...)

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...)

The IBM Selectric Typewriter Changed My Life
I ran my hands lovingly across her frame, lightly brushing her metallic nipples with my fingers, admiring the shapes and the ways of her curves, the empathetic hum she produced as I had my way with her, the way she made it all seem so effortless and right... she didn't even seem to mind the way I roughly manipulated her knobs and tweaked her casing. She was extremely tolerant, for a typewriter. (More...)
