OK Damian, I have it working now. I also use Go Daddy, and Justin's "all in one" code also caused my server to crash, so it looks like a Go Daddy thing. I love Go Daddy though, the service is great, and this is no reason to switch (believe it or not, I also host over at Network Solutions) As for the fix: First, I did not put the rewrite code i […]
Man, thanks for the great review and info. I love that it could be argued that this movie is targeted at social workers and teachers who practice LaME. On a side-note: I hope to have that indexing turned around in 36 hours at the latest. Lots going on tomorrow. Moving furniture for wood floor dude Grandma hired for us (Christmas gift). […]
Thanks..I always wanted that comment follow-up plugin but always forget about it when I'm online. You'd think WordPress would have put that in their default code by now...How are you checking to see if it really redirects? Check Justin again and try to follow his steps. I think you may have got in too deep with the move and created a unique situati […]
So I watched the Oscars last night, and I was wondering who that woman claiming to be Sandra Bullock was. Not only was this actress supposed to be a dramatic serious as opposed to a comedian, but she looked totally different. I think it’s obvious Sandra Bullock has had cosmetic surgery, like a face-lift to smooth out the wrinkles or some work on the eyes. I’m not an expert all the different types of facial surgery out there, but I didn’t even recognize her. Seems like a nosejob, facelift, Botox, or something.
She originally seemed more ethic, but now she looks like an the so-called ideal brunette Hollywood starlet, so it was a career decision that seemed to payoff with her first Oscar award. For some reason athletes can’t enhance their bodies, but actors and musicians can. It seems like the same people who get all over Tiger Woods for taking HGH say that the new Sandra Bullock looks hot. Just sayin’, since they are both performers, and sports is just entertainment no matter how freakin’ serious you want to take it.
More irony, folks: clicking Add Video doesn’t give me a preview- it gives me a white box. Clicking insert embed media gives me a flash player square when I preview this post. Ya gotta love WordPress for making this easy for me.
So let me Save Draft, download a video plugin, and then install plugin to get video to embed without changing my General Setting options. Hold on.
Wow, so I typed “youtube” in the search plugins box and received “An unknown error occurred”. Then my Dashboard froze. Is it chrome? Wordpress? GoDaddy? MagicJack? Okay, lemme Save Draft again, and go into Mozilla. Hold on.
Okay, I’m back; turns out I uncovered a NEW WORDPRESS or GoDaddy bug that doesn’t allow me to ad new plugins right now. Yep, that’s what their forums said. This is an older trouble ticket; the first person said to disable all of your plugins and then activate them. Turns out that was wrong advice, glad I didn’t do that. Next person said to change themes. Turns out that was wrong, too. (Boy am I glad I didn’t test those out.) Therefore, you can go ahead and watch Tony Vahl’s excellent video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRxt86XgTUc
Hold on, let me try to embed by simply pasting the embed code from YouTube in the HTML post tab. Ah! That worked, but the width is too much, so my right sidebar is being cut. Let me edit the width, hold on. Nope. Let me try again. Hold on. Yaaaaah! Got it! Had to change the width in TWO places in that code. Okay, without further ado- here it is:

Here’s my parody on JustinTV, YouTube, lifecasting, and the Internet. What do you guys think? Mentioned in this video: Max Headroom, The Matrix, microphones, and stuffed animals.
Let me know what else you want and I’ll try and put a skit, interview, or news brief for you one of these days.
Yeah, hi…my name is Ken Tracey, and I’ve been dead for four years now. Satan let me post to this blog just so I can get something off my chest: can the Department of Corrections please take me down from their Search for Sexual Predators website? I mean, I can’t begin to tell you how I’m being punished down here.
I swear I never meant to hurt little Timmy, Ryan, and my nephew Zack. But the demons down here don’t believe me. They give it to me worse that the felons I was stuck with at Big Pine.
How come my profile is still up there? I mean, they actually list me as deceased. They know I’m dead. I know I’m dead. Yet when people search sex fiends, there I am. Is this some eternal punishment in addition to what’s happening down here?
Can’t the database people not display you if you’re deceased?
It’s not enough that I have to deal with Adolf and Saddam down here, right? You wouldn’t believe the things they force me to do. At least little Timmy liked what I did to him- wait-no, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to type that. I DIDN’T MEAN IT! NO! PLEASE LET ME CONTINUE TO TYPE. SATAN, PLEASE! ARGHHH!AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
When A-Rod proclaimed to the world that his “cousin did it” (supplied him with drugs from the Dominican Republic), my first thought was CCB3. [For those of you who don't know CCB3 is one of my best friends who is now running from LA gangs thanks to a DailySkew post, and was in Korea before getting kicked out of a band for hitting on the lead singer.]
The reason being: in the official CCB3 Handbook, it says to use your “cousin” as an excuse for anything. “Cousin” is a very ambiguous term anyway, as it can refer to 1st cousins from either side of the family in addition to 2nd or 3rd cousins. When you add remarriages, you have access to half-cousins as well. Many “cousins” are out-of-state and many are out of the country. Throw in some in-laws, and you can have a whole host of new cousins via marriage. Additionally, some close friends can be considered cousins. SO, to say your “cousin did it” is CLASSIC.
But lo and behold- the MEDIA has actually uncovered A-Rod’s cousin. He goes under the name of Yuri Sucart, and lives in Miami.
“Yuri is his driver,” the source said. “He takes care of him all the time. His clothes, his food; he’s with Alex every day.”
The problem: it’s CCB3. I don’t know what kind of scam CCB3 in running now with Alex Rodriguez, but the last time he made contact from me after Korea was from Africa (he had a Pan the Goat sighting there, but I didn’t get around to publish his report.) As far as the name “Yuri Sucart”, that is an anagram of “A Curry Suit”, which means CCB3 is probably in India now.
Anyway, here is the photographic PROOF Yuri Sucart = CCB3
Overrated! Overrated! The term is used all the time, usually used to rip or attack someone whom the MEDIA, establishment, or society approves of. Many times attacking someone who is “overrated” is a straw man’s argument, i.e. there is no “THEY”, the mysterious group of people who rate people, movies, music, culture, sports, and historical figures. However, our society has a habit of making lists, creating rankings, rating systems, displaying sales charts, inducting people in Halls of Fame, and lionizing people. So, saying someone or something is overrated can actually be a true statement if you have the right list.
Thanks to the Internet, I can can read about negative comments from “smart” posters who attack even the most immortal names in sports, entertainment, and history. In other words, no one and no thing is sacred. I wanted to finish that sentence with the word “anymore”, to imply that today’s modern era of sitting in front of the computer in your underwear and attacking artists and famous figures is a product of today’s generation, but I hesitated to. I mean, for all we know, people ripped and criticized the caveman that discovered fire back in the day.
You see, the problem with the word “overrated” is that today’s society equates it with the word SUCKS. So not only is Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter “overrated”, Derek Jeter must “suck”.
What cannot be denied is that the Internet enabled a global forum for complainers, armchair quarterbacks, amateur historians, and snobby critics to have their say. What was limited to your local neighborhood pub is now world wide.
So…without further ado…here’s some stuff I found on the Internet regarding some of the best sports figures in history.
PART I
Is Michael Jordan overrated? Yes, because there is a mythology that Jordan had this aura or dominance to make his teams win. Yet, his teams won 7/15 seasons. What happened to the magic in the 8 seasons they didn’t win. Why is winning rings a criteria anyway? Bill Russell’s teams won 11/13 championships. I also found out Wilt Chamberlain was more dominant with scoring and the rules were rewritten to limit his dominance.
Is Babe Ruth overrated? Yes, because he played in a segregated league. Some of the best players were in the Negro Leagues and Cuba. Baseball during his time was still kinda bush league, and the players weren’t athletic. Ruth also corked his bat sometimes.
Is Tiger Woods overrated? Yes, Jack Nicklaus had all of the other great golfers like Player, Palmer, Trevino, and Watson. Tiger can’t be in the same league with Ben Hogan and Bobby Jones when his only serious challenge in a major championship came from the winless Bob May.
Is Jerry Rice overrated? Regarded by many to be the best football player who ever lived, I found out that almost half Jerry Rice’s catches were off 2 yard patterns, and his success was due to the 49er scheme, not individual talent. Due to NFL rule changes, it seemed like anytime Rice was touched it was a penalty. If he played “back in the day”, he would have gotten creamed.
Is Rocky Marciano overrated? Of course. It took him 9 rounds to beat an old man Joe Louis. Rocky fought in one of the weakest eras in boxing, and didn’t have tough opponents, which is why he had an undefeated record. Half of his opponents weighed less than he. He was only 185 pounds anyway…he would get beat up today.
DS: I’m sorry, am I supposed to ask you questions? Okay, Octopus Man, how can we solve this global financial CRISIS?
R: We need an immediate reversal of this process by facilitating the creation of long-term liquidity pools to purchase assets – rather like John Pierpont Morgan’s 1907 money trusts. These pools are best managed by those with long-term liabilities like insurance companies and funds with investor lock ups, but the authorities could capitalize these liquidity pools by issuing ten-year government bonds. Under existing rules, these pools would not mark-to-market, and it is better that long-term investors, not governments, buy assets on a strictly commercial basis. These liquidity pools need to operate internationally and therefore need to be capitalized and organized internationally. The IMF may perform this co-ordination role.
DS: ………………………
R: What? Because I am Octopus Man, I’m not supposed to know these things?
R: RAW is smarter than I am. I’m working. He should be working.
DS: Did you happen to read Neil Gaiman’s Batman #686? Is that comic in continuity?
R: Yes, it is. There are infinite number of Batmans.We are seeing how many of them died.
DS: Was Chris Jericho justified in hitting that fan?
R: Yes, security was not adequate enough, and the fan attacked him first.
DS: Thank you so much, Octopus Man. Any final thoughts?
R: Yes, I am tired on being on TV and YouTube with the words “WARNING this program contains graphic and upsetting images”. It makes me feel like a monster. I am a MAN!
1) Smarter than you, and will let you know it 2) Actually makes money online and doesn’t need to work 3) Writing proposals to President Obama 4) The official spokesperson of the Internet Community 5) Knows what it is in your interest 6) A public speaker and consultant 7) Believes the bailout money should go to his blog/wiki/online community Enjoyed twittering the Minnesota U.S. Senate recount 9) May very well be your future master, so bow down 10) Your intellectual, moral, and civic SUPERIOR
Yet he
1) In his 32nd year of being single 2) Isn’t even in the real wikipedia, so he had to start his own 3) Looks better with black rectangles for his eyes 4) Has no practical experience around the house or in real life 5) Gets 0-2 blog comments per article…from spammers 6) Has lips that are always between smug and sarcastic 7) Would shrivel up into a mound of gelatin if his Internet connection goes out for 10 minutes Enjoys posing in front of white backgrounds, with a lavender hue 9) Will gladly take your money to hear his innovative ideas 10) Doesn’t believe in any form of exercise or socializing, if it’s not done virtually
Did somebody say Phil Hendrie? This REAL news story made me LAUGH OUT LOUD, especially when I heard the NAACP guy, who sounds like Phil’s preacher. The actual news reporter reminds me of an Onion character, too. I mean, what’s the implication: that Obama is racist against black people? The sad part is that this news story is TRUE!
MSN had this headline article I felt compelled to click on:
10 Sexy Careers You Never Thought Of
And it had this to say about the IT Department:
Although IT workers have earned a bad reputation for not understanding the plight of the computer-illiterate worker, they aren’t the office villains some people have made them out to be. And if power is sexy, then these men and women probably outrank everyone. Whether you’re low on the totem pole or an executive, if you can’t open your e-mail account or figure out why your monitor is flickering, you call IT. In many offices, IT workers have the most lax dress code of all the departments, so you can’t help but envy them.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!
Although I shudder to generalize, I actually have many points of references from other workplaces other than my own, where I can assure you, honey, IT is NOT sexy. And I DON’T envy them, although I do respect their high IQ they tell me about all the time.
I’m sure there are good ones out their that break the stereotype, but…I’m just saying, the word “sexy” is not even on the list. IT is known for their brains, not their sex appeal. “Sexy” should be reserved for other professions.
“Lifecasting” is a hot trend, and a symbol of humanity’s growing infatuation with social networking, video, reality TV, and watching other people’s lives. The irony is, of course, that all being “social” online is a contraction.
JustinTV, founded in San Fransisco, CA, with a Linux box and a mobile streaming camera, is constantly growing and evolving. It was originally one channel- the life of Justin Kan walking around 24/7. Now it has many lifecasting channels, not to mention unauthorized live streaming of sporting events, satellite channels, TV shows, movies, etc. With live chat, you can read and post comments while watching whatever stream is on.
You can also watch other people play video games online. 2,385 people are currently watching birds eat in a cage. I KNEW I should have brought the cameras to see Pan’s World.
And, of course, it is the place to chat with live underage teens for free.
It’s Youtube, MySpace, craigslist, reality TV, reruns, and The Truman Show all rolled up into one. And it’s FREE!
The rules: no nudity (not enforced). Copyright? Copy wha-?
By the way, it’s NOT cool to mention the JustinTV suicide while chatting there. That kid cried wolf so many times, it’s not even funny. No trolling! LOL Well, gotta run. I gotta watch people sleep on JustinTV. If I get bored, I can always change the channel and watch Star Trek channel, which plays every episode from every series. That’s over 400 hours of enjoyment right there. I can also check out the boxing or wrestling channels. But there are no commercials or pause button, so you have to urinate in a glass.
JustinTV: keeping people at home one day at a time.
Welcome to the Matrix, I hope you enjoy your stay.
The recent trend of travellers trying to get past their cheesy Sno-globes past the TSA has created a new sub-culture of renegades- Snow globe Insurgents. They believe that the Bush/Cheney fascists that run the airports are violating their unalienable rights to bring a LIQUID onto an AIRPLANE.
Do you know what the first reaction of office-mates and Internet message boards is when I explain the “plight” of one of them that had to hand over his snow globe? “Why didn’t he check it in with baggage instead of carry-on?”
Here’s a message from the TSA..in fact they created a nice-EASY to remember slogan called 3-1-1:
Make Your Trip Better Using 3-1-1
3-1-1 for carry-ons = 3 ounce bottle or less (by volume) ; 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag; 1 bag per passenger placed in screening bin. One-quart bag per person limits the total liquid volume each traveler can bring. 3 oz. container size is a security measure.
Consolidate bottles into one bag and X-ray separately to speed screening.
Be prepared. Each time TSA searches a carry-on it slows down the line. Practicing 3-1-1 will ensure a faster and easier checkpoint experience.
3-1-1 is for short trips. If in doubt, put your liquids in checked luggage.
Declare larger liquids. Medications, baby formula and food, and breast milk are allowed in reasonable quantities exceeding three ounces and are not required to be in the zip-top bag. Declare these items for inspection at the checkpoint.
Come early and be patient. Heavy travel volumes and the enhanced security process may mean longer lines at security checkpoints.
TSA working with our partners. TSA works with airlines and airports to anticipate peak traffic and be ready for the traveling public.
Note: Unfortunately, I did not take the photo down quickly enough, and ATB put a warrant for CCB’s arrest. He is currently in exile as a drummer in Korea:
Soviet Premier Vladimir Putin has released this proclamation on Soviet TV yesterday, on the heels of the Russian Stock Market Crash: We must finalize and adopt a federal law on the southern border of Russia’s Arctic zone. This is our responsibility, and simply our direct duty, to our descendants. We must surely, and for the long-term future, secure Russia’s interests in the Arctic. This region has strategic significant for us. Its development is directly tied to solving the long-term tasks of the state and its competitiveness on global markets.
Global warming has been good for Russia, good for the people, melting its vast icy territories has revealed previously inaccessible oil and gas reserves.
There is no question that most of the Arctic is in Russian territory since an underwater ridge links Siberia to the North Pole’s seabed. We will be prepared to do whatever is necessary to secure our future.
OFFICIAL JOHN McCAIN TRANSCRIPT FOR THE GAS TAX PETITION...plus McCain’s VP Pick!!
Good evening my fellow Americans,
America has seen tough times before. But we’ve always known how to get through them. Believe me- I was there during the Civil War–hahahaha. And..and… we’ve always believed our best, err, days are ahead of us. Guess what? I believe still believe, I mean I believe that still. Eer, we must rise to the occasion, as we always have; change what must be changing, er, changed; and make the past, I mean, future better than the past.
Obama may talk the talk; but he don’t walk the walk.
I do!
Hard-working American families are suffering from high gas-gasoline prices. I will call upon Congress to sus-suspend the 18.4 cent federal gas tax and 24.4 cent diesel tax from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
International demand for oil is bolstered by federal purchases for the SPR. Now I don’t know what “SPR” means, but it sounds good. Or bad. I do know that there is no reason to fill it when oil is so expensive, the overall SPR is of adequate size, and when it places further upward pressure on prices.
Ethanol subsidies…wow..I never thought this stuff could get so technical–hahaha– tariff barriers and sugar quotas drive up food prices and hurt Americans. However, we cannot take the wrong direction and cut off trade for American goods.
I have seen Republicans and Democrats achieve great things together. I really have. When the stakes were high and it mattered most, I’ve seen them work together in common purpose, as we did in the weeks after September 11th. This kind of cooperation has made all the difference at crucial turns in our history. It has given us hope in difficult times. It has moved America forward. And that, my friends, is the kind of change we need right now.
Thank you and good night.
Oh. Yeah, I forgot. {chuckle}I’m sure you all wanted to hear about John McCain’s Vice President Pick. Now, now, remember I told you guys you had to wait until 11:00 AM Friday. And not with those newfangled dang text-uhm-iPod things. No, I’m gonna use a facsimile transmission. Okay, I’ll leak my pick right here on the DailySkew, since Damian had already inaugurated me President of the United States! {laughs}
Everybody, I would like to introduce my running mate, and future Vice President. Everyone, let’s give a warm welcome to..
Hi, my name is Mannbay2004. I was caught on Dateline NBC by Chris Hansen. I thought my life would be over. But the truth is I only served a few months in prison, and got my old job back as a computer programmer. No one knew. I would have thought being on Dateline would have ruined my chances to make something for myself, but my father called my job as said I had to go back to India for six months. Now I’m back, and working at my old place. None of my co-workers have any idea. I thought it was very ironic and interesting that Americans just don’t watch that show or can even remember what I look like or my name. It also shows you how overrated it is to be on national television.

JOHNSON COUNTY, Kan. — Johnson County deputies said a doctor thought he was meeting up with a bumble bee to have sex. Instead of the bee, deputies answered the door.
Deputies from Johnson County’s internet investigation team chatted with Dr. CCB3 online and when they say he tried to meet the bee, the team made its 51st arrest.
“I’ve known CCB3 for several months. Dr. CCB3 is the kind of person we all want our children to grow up to be,” defense lawyer Damian Hospital said.
From a computer at his home, Johnson County Deputies said CCB3 met who he thought was a bee.
“He showed up to have sex with the bee and instead he found a group of deputies and is now in jail,” Deputy Arnold Roberts with Johnson County said.
CCB3, who was practicing medicine at a hospital in Missouri, made his first court appearance today, and pleaded not guilty. He has been charged with felony electronic solicitation, and bad fashion.
“Let’s all refrain from rushing to judgment until more facts become available,” Damian Hospital said.
This isn’t CCB3’s first run-in with the law. He pleaded no contest for domestic violence in 1996. His gay partner Jeremy lives in Tampa, Florida.
“His former partner Jeremy was very surprised to hear about the allegations, unfortunately from a Johnson County Sheriff’s Deputy who called and left a message on his voicemail,” Hospital said.
Co-workers at his office were also surprised. In a written statement, a spokesman at Annabelle Hospital said CCB3 has been relieved of any and all responsibilities at Annabelle Hospital pending the outcome of any criminal charges that may be filed against him.
“If you’re going to commit a crime like this in Johnson County, we’re going to catch you,” Roberts said.
CCB3’s lawyer said the doctor is prepared to defend himself against the charge. CCB3 is expected to be out on bail tomorrow night.
He will be transported from the West back exist of the Johnson County Courthouse at exactly 7:05PM.

This time around I realized that the raccoon was free from suffering now. It's a shame its life had to end like that- it was blameless; humans built roads in the middle of his ancestor's forest. Progress and technology broke that raccoon's legs and took his life tonight. But now the suffering has ended for it. I mourned the raccoon and the way […]
