Out of town
I'll be out of town for the long weekend, but I should be back in full force on Wednesday. So, don't go through too much withdrawl and hopefully they'll be some good stuff just waiting for me to post. So enjoy the weekend and check out the newest edition to the Homestar Runner site:
Duck Guardian. My highest is wave 11. If you can get farther than that, you can guardian my ducks any time.
Liberated Games
Where you can get good games for free and not be afraid of getting caught stealing? Well thanks to someone who has as big a passion for free games as I do, you can know find a huge list at
Liberated Games. There are some top-notch ones on the list as well. Don't believe me? Take a look at this sampling of titles:
Doom,
Duke Nukem 3D,
Grand Theft Auto and
Maelstrom. Get you some.
Vegetarian Rhapsody
I see a little silhouetto of a man. Scaramouche, scaramouche will you do the fandango? Thunderbolt and lightningvery very frightening me! Take that image and instead of Wayne and Garth head-banging, picture carrots, broccoli and corn. Once you get that image in your head you are ready to see an angry tomato who is "just a poor boy." So, get your Queen on and I suggest you take
Vegetarian Rhapsody for a spin.
Priceless
Beach house: $500,000
Volvo wagon: $25,000
Sand, dirt, exhaust: $5
Sex prints on your hood: Priceless
This is one of the best craigslist posts I've seen in a while and I suggest you all
check it out.
The Blue Chamber
First there was
The Crimson Room, then there was
Viridian Room. The next chapter has arrived and it's the
The Blue Chamber. It's fun, but not particularly tough. I got hung up on the skull and bones, but eventually figured it out. If you need help, just drop me a comment. Party on. (via

The Passion of the Clerks
New shit has come to light, man. Thanks to Meghan, and her ever vigilant mission to keep me well-informed, I have learned that a new Kevin Smith movie is in the works... and it's a sequel to
Clerks.
CNN reports that the sequel will pick up 10 years after
Clerks ended. It will give an update on Dante and Randal and answer the question, "What happened to these dudes?" The working title is
The Passion of the Clerks and I hope it keep it for the actual title. Kevin Smith says he started thinking about the sequel while working on the new
10th anniversary DVD release of Clerks. Just thought you folks would like to know.
The Star Trek Enterprise Scooter
I don't know much about it, but
take a look. It's a scooter/vespa/moped/bike that looks like the Starship Enterprise. The only back-story I could find was at
I4U News, which said it was auctioned off last year in a promotion for the release of Star Trek: Nemesis, in Japan. But that doesn't mean much to me. It's hilarious. I would drive it around town in a heart beat. Now all I need is a tricorder and a phaser. Make it so.
Fuck it. The game.
It's like Tetris, except the pieces don't fall and you're trying to spell a naughty four-letter word. So, if you feel like wasting some time, try out
fuck it, but don't say I didn't warn you. This game is remarkably hard. My high score is only 350. Enjoy it, but remember, it's not the answer to everything. That revolution is over.
Condolences. The bums lost. My advice is to do what your parents did; get a job, sir. (via

Buy me a present
I've been lusting after one piece of digital deliciousness for several months now, and it looks like they just upped the ante. This new
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T3 digital camera is the more than the bee's knees, it's the rabbit's habit, the steer's ears, and the moose's caboose all at the same time! It's less than 3/4" thick, 5.1 megapixles, 3x optical zoom, a 2.5" LCD viewfinder, and weighs in at 5 oz. So, my birthday is coming up soon. Buy it for me. (via

I do not have lip fungus!
Awesome! That's all I should say, but I want to make sure you click on this link. It's three commercials for a Kyocera phone and they are hilarious. But don't take my word for it,
check them out for yourself. I haven't seen them on TV, but apparently they're out there. So keep your eyes peeled, and if you're going to get a cellphone, get a
Kyocera and support quality advertising. (via
