gulf war 2
-
"This is a projection of the most likely outcome of a new war in the Gulf. I used sophisticated temporal algorithms and historical semiotic analysis to achieve an accuracy rating of 99.999%. It's the mother of all Flash games."People seem to be forgetting that a "conventional" war -- in a nuclear age -- is only a button-push away from becoming non-conventional. Or something like that.

Some Super Bowl Ads (Preview)
(Y&R)
-
My corporate parent company is highlighting some of our client spots which will air during the Super Bowl. To tell the truth, some have probably already been on air. A few of these, like the Sony spot, are, let's just say it, f*cking brilliant. And the Womankind spot, so tragic. You'll need Quicktime or Windows Media to view these.

Dialogue begins about 'ghetto party'
(Texas A&M Battalion)
-
'I did go to the party. I thought it was wrong from the beginning but it wasn't meant to be a racist event,' he said. 'The way people dressed, it might have looked racist, but it was just a theme. The whole thing has been blown way out of proportion.'Is it what people say -- like a Trent Lott, for instance -- or is it what they do which tells you exactly what they think about you? Wake up bruthas and sistas, they're not interested in being your friends.

Privoxy ("Privacy Proxy") is a web proxy with advanced filtering capabilities for protecting privacy, filtering web page content, managing cookies, controlling access, and removing ads, banners, pop-ups and other obnoxious Internet junk.Here's the thing: it's open source and it works! I've been playing around with this for about two weeks now, and I have yet to see a pop-up or pop-under ad. It took me about 30 minutes to grok the filtering syntax which is based on regular expressions, but I can never go back to normal browsing, never!

Bush: Affirmative action quotas unconstitutional
(CNN.com)
-
President Bush announced Wednesday that his administration would oppose race-based college admissions policies.This from a moron who got into Harvard Biz School because his father was "somebody," and certainly not because he was academically competent. Back in those days, how many qualified HBS applicants lost out because of Dubya's family ties? Is he really qualified to be the spokesman for academic fairness? Is he really qualified to lead? But you know what, this country gets what it deserves. Since we're going to hell, we deserve a flaming idiot.

Republicans Don't Really Care about Improving Race Relations
(AlterNet.org)
-
I'm a blond-haired, blue-eyed, middle-class, middle-aged white guy who has lived most of his life in Dallas, Texas - probably the country's bastion of old-school racism. Because of my whitebread appearance, many white Republicans have felt comfortable enough around me during various times in my adult life to let their guard down and express their true feelings on matters of race...A politician always wants you to believe what they say, but usually it's more instructive to watch what they've done, and what they do. For instance, anyone looking at Lott's past knows his apologies ring false. In this article, we hear about Texas Republicans who pepper their country-club chats with the N-word and disrespect the memory of MLK, but root for Emmitt Smith to score TDs. Look at those 'big bucks' run! Hooo-eee! So, how 'bout them cowboys?

The Detroit Project

Arianna: "Why not turn the tables and adopt the same tactics the administration was using in the drug war to point out the much more credible link between driving SUVs and our national security?"
I don't know if SUV owners are supporting terrorists, but I know that when I see an SUV like a Hummer, they're sure not supporting education. Only an ignorant idiot would drive a beast like that -- sorry, make that selfish ignorant idiot. It's too big. It's too ugly. It has no aesthetic. And it's just too gas-addicted. It is a military assault vehicle. But on a city street, it's just an assault. On the other hand, if we all went out and bought a Hummer or similar moron-wagons like the Escalade or Avalanche, we could deplete the world's oil supply in maybe 5 years, or less. Then there wouldn't be any need for war or terrorists, since nothing could get done. You go, girl, uh, Arianna! I like the technique of using the same bombast that they use. Fight propaganda with propaganda.

We're born nude and it just seems like the most natural thing." --Bo DerekYou go, girl.

Because she supports a peaceful group that lobbies against US military aid to Columbia. In a free country, there's room for dissenting opinions amongst citizens.
