I love quotes. I collect them and read them and treasure them. I'm not very good at expressing myself verbally so quotes are always fun to say. To get started you're gonna get a quote and then the news after that.
Quote of the Day:
If a guitar's what you got, a guitar's what you fight with.
-Steve Earle
News:
Steven Seagal Speaks Out
This is a little weird. It's a clip from a movie, but if you look closely it's much more than a clip from a movie. Steven Seagal did the movie in 1994, but the things he's saying in the clip ring true to this day. Watch the clip, it's only five minutes long, you'll see what I mean.\
Monkey Terrorists
It looks like the Taliban have a lot of time on their hands. Lolz from terrorists?
DARPA Makes Fake Blood
The title explains itself. We are living in a time of science fiction. This could turn out to be a good thing, especially for our soldiers, but I'm skeptical of whatever DARPA is involved in.
Drunk History of Nikola Tesla
This is hilarious. I love Nikola Tesla much more than Edison. Tesla was the original mad scientist and he was awesome. He had a death ray! This is a great little history of Tesla from Funny Or Die.
GodBlock: Keep Your Children Safe
This a download for your computer that keeps your children from seeing or reading anything religious online. This is awesome. I've been waiting for someone to do this. I don't want my kid to think that if he does something wrong he's gonna go to hell. We can raise our children correctly without having religious indoctrinations and "values" in our lives.
Perfect Citizen
Motherfuckers. I hate this shit. This is an article about the NSA's new project called Perfect Citizen. It's to notify the NSA when it looks like somebody's gonna make a cyber attack on the critical infrastructure of America. They say that they are only gonna look at a couple of the big computer networks. They're not. This thing, this new security measure is only to take more control. It's to watch us more closely. It's just another invasion of our privacy cloaked with a promise of keeping us safer by looking inward instead of outward. And "Perfect Citizen"? Can this shit sound anymore Orwellian? I mean what the fuck?
P.S. I don't mean to swear a lot but our government makes me angry.
Pictures of What's Happening To The Gulf
This is so horrendous and sad. Because of the media you probably won't see these pictures on tv. This is what corporate controlled government does to Mother Earth. We need to stop them.
Digital Drugs
This is actually pretty cool. All it is sound. That's it. I tried it and I like it. It just makes you relax. I mean I can't speak for other people but this is very cool. I think the parents of those kids need to try this and understand what their kids are doing. In the article, one kid talks about hallucinating and I think they're lying. I mean you need more stimulation and chemicals than sound to hallucinate. People who have seizure disorders shouldn't listen because they might have one but I really am not seeing a downside. It causes euphoria, oh noes! Happy people are coming!
Bill O'Reilly Is An Asshole
But I bet you already knew that. This is a very short clip of him a few years back trying to wrap up a taping of Inside Edition. Very funny.
Plague In California
Los Alamos Campground has been shut down because squirrels there tested positive for the plague. The campground has been shut down for ten days so specialists can eradicate the plague. Yay camping!
Extremist Christians Creating Armed Militias
I'm all for arming yourself against the threat of the government, living off the grid, etc., but armed Christians wanting to reconstruct America where God is the highest power scares the shit outta me.
How To Live Without Air Conditioning
This a really cool (hahaha) article about how to survive without air conditioning. The person who wrote the article also wrote a book about the subject. I find it easy to live without ac, fans do the work just as well and it makes it lighter on the electric bill.
Violate The Patriot Act The Easy Way
This article discusses the Patriot Act and its uselessness. Oh fun! The Patriot Act's vagueness makes everyone a criminal.
Trailer for Centurion
This is the official trailer for Centurion, a movie about Roman soldiers in Scotland(?) trying to get back. Looks good and full of action.
That's about it for today. I know it was a very long post.
