soapbox

Wife for sale. Cheap. Was $8M, now only $6k.

I’m sitting in a seminar right now which is ending up being far funnier than it should be.

The talk itself is somewhat interesting, talking about how best to search and match things in spherical coordinates.

The funny part is coming because the speaker is nervous and keeps digressing… “Wow, time is going fast, I don’t think it’s just me, it can’t be this soda, wow, look at how much sugar this soda has” and then back to the talk.

when someone rushes down the hall and pushes past you at the bathroom door saying “Hermione can’t see the light of day!”

WTF?

This has been making the blog rounds today. Apparently it’s originally from the New York Times. The easy way to go is to straight along my path… no D&D to liking sunlight to girls. The other paths are much much funnier though.

There are some things that can overwhelm into inaction… either via awe, fear, shock, or in this case, absurdity – R Kelly & Usher’s cover of Nephu’s “Same Girl” (my only excuse is that I set my whole iTunes library to “max shuffle”).

anyway, maybe when I have recovered  a bit I’ll post some thoughts. but for starters, does anyone else thing that this really should have been an SNL (Timberlake & somebody) item?

1. Wolfowitz blames World Bank for “unclear rules”.

Apparently the whole “give your girlfriend a crapload of $$$” is frowned upon in Europe? I mean, the US Govt is obviously fine with funnelling money to personal/private interests, so how could he have known?

2. Rapper arrested for drunk driving.

Wow, I can’t top that. Even by noting that this happened a day after Eve wrecked a Mazerati. ouch.

3. Lohan has big plans for 21st birthday party.

So she’s gonna do something different for a change? Stay sober, keep her knickers on, avoid flashing anyone, and… ? Ooops, just kidding: Lohan is excited by the prospect of going clubbing, now that her club-owning friends “don’t have to worry about getting into trouble” for letting her inside, she told host Ellen DeGeneres.
