I want to put this on a t-shirt and wear it to work one day. Just to see what happens.

tomLate last year we discovered that MySpace cofounder Tom Anderson, arguably the most popular individual on the Internet with 240 million MySpace friends (he is added by default to every MySpace account) was actually 37 years old, not the 32 that he continues to claim on his MySpace page.

Now we’ve learned a much more colorful part of Anderson’s history: In 1985, when he was fourteen and in high school in Escondido, California, Anderson was subject to one of the largest FBI raids in California history after hacking into a Chase Manhattan Bank computer system and subsequently showing his friends how to do it. He was never arrested because he was a minor, but the FBI confiscated all of his computer equipment and some newspaper accounts of the incident stated incorrectly (see image below from a 1986 LA Times story) that he was “convicted in federal court of computer hacking and placed on probation” (the statements were corrected in subsequent articles). Anderson used the hacker name “Lord Flathead.”

I guess Tom should have used the name ZeroCool. It would have been much more fitting. And yes i know he did this shit before the movie ever came out. And i don’t care.

marioIf you’ve read the headline and are already flexing your fingers ready to write an outraged response on the T&G message boards telling me that I’m more evil than Wario and Bowser’s demonic offspring, let me explain why I think it’s about time that Nintendo’s most famous character is put out to pasture.

I kind of agree with the writer of said article. Mario is the king. Always has, and always will be. Nintendo does not need a new mascot. They have one. Put him on the throne outside of Nintendo HQ and let someone else have the spotlight for a while. But don’t let anyone forget who runs shit in video game land.

I wonder what the world would be like under the evil rule of Sonic? That is of course if he were to win the video game wars of the 90’s.

Casting Mike Tyson’s Punch Out: The Movie - Asylum | Men’s Lifestyle | Humor, weird news, sex tips, fashion, dating, food and gadgets
Ever wondered who would play the roles in a movie version of the video game Mike Tyson’s Punch Out?

No? Really?

We’ve been thinking about this our entire lives. After many vicious arguments around the boardroom table, we’ve assembled an all-star, master cast of the best talent. Some of these guys are too old to box, some of them aren’t even actors, but they definitely look like they should be getting the smack down from Little Mac.

Let the body blows begin!

Oh man, this shit is right on point. Poor Owen Wilson. He has to play Good ole Glass Joe. Mr. 1-99. The shame. I wonder who would play Gabba Jay in the sequel? Maybe that old guy from “A River Runs Through It” & “Top Gun”. I was just informed that his name is Tom Skerrit. That would be the tits.

Christianity explained.

Who ever knew it was this simple all along. I guess it’s time to go convert folks. Those Saturday morning door busters got nothing on these people.

I never have any time to update the site anymore. Between trying to work doubles, fixing up the apartment next door [so we can rent it out] and any other miscellaneous things that come up, there is never time to just sit down and write anything. Not that this is something new, this has been the norm for what seems like the entire year in general. Off the top of my head, this is what has been going on in the past few months:

Went to a few concerts [Slipknot, Maroon 5 (freebie), Mastodon, Counting Crows (freebie)]. Have had and went to a few parties around the area. Worked and worked some more. Spent some time out of work cause I was hurt.

I hope I can think of some more shit to put up here later on. I got nothing but time.

I guess i got linked on trynewshit.com. they want me to get off my can and try something new. thats kind of hard right now when i am at work. what the fuck am i going to do that’s new? maybe i can go read the goddamn happy meter on the wall or recite it to someone. you know what that happy face gauge is. It’s that thing that has the 10 faces that progressively get from good to worse. believe me, if i had something more entertaining to do, i would be doing it.

i would rather play some warcraft right now. i doubt i would be able to connect anyways. stupid big brother hospital internet. eh, whatever. i cant run wow on this thing anyways. i need more memory. i found some, but it eludes me as to why the memory is 89 dollars. i know it’s old, but come on now. i could go get some brand new kingston memory for much cheaper. not like i use the laptop that much anymore anyways. i really only use it when i absolutely need a windows machine for something i cannot do on a linux machine. which, by the way is few and far between now a days. Ubuntu FTW!
