“And although it seems heaven sent we aint ready, to see a black president, uhh”
-Tupac Shakur
I totally agreed with Tupac when this song came out, and even as recently as a year ago. Maybe even a few months ago. But today I voted for Obama and so did millions others. And he won. Amazing. It’s truly historic, I don’t know what else to say…
Really. I mean, we all knew that no truly novel question was going to be answered, the teachers often had no clue what the scientific method was, and grades were usually assigned based on how pretty one’s display was.
That being said, some projects are even worse than others. One wonders just what the teachers thought- or how some of these ideas got through in the first place. Though given that one elementary school classmate’s project was called “Astro Ants and Astro Gerbil” and involved sending the family pet up as the payload of a model rocket, I guess I really can’t be too surprised.
Kosuke Fukudome Central League MVP, will probably sign with a major league team this offseason.
I expect that we could have intentional pronunciation manglings. I’m waiting to see if we’ll have “Fuck you do me!” *clapclapclapclapclap* “Fuck you do me!” *clapclapclapclapclap* chants echoing around some ballpark.
I may have posted about the hilarity of Silicon Dream’s “Andromeda” earlier. Here’s Wish Key’s “Orient Express”, one of the biggest Italo Disco hits of the 80s. I’m not quite sure what’s with this video- it looks like they shot it in the guy’s basement with the idea that adding a disco ball would automatically make things look cool. Catchy synth hooks though.
My roommate just made this. Isn’t it great? They should’ve had a few of these on the island the first Survivor was on. That would’ve made it more interesting.
Personally, I’ve always been disappointed that king crabs aren’t similar in proportion to, say, the Chesapeake blue crab. Imagine king crab legs in a blue crab body type. The body would probably be close to a meter wide. It’d be so sweet to release a crustacean tank onto a crowded beach and watch beachgoers flee in panic.
Roger will probably make some comment about Flemish Giants now.
Take a look at this article about a naked crackhead attacked by a gator.
Also, I know ’80s German synth had some weird videos- I mean, remember Alphaville’s “Forever Young” vid?- but this video of a song called “Andromeda” by Silicon Dream is the worst I’ve seen yet. The lead singer looks like a gay pedophilic Ronald McDonald(okay, more so). The dancers do not coordinate, move strangely, and leer at the camera.
Truly, the world is strange.
Blogger’s Word Verification is a complete misnomer. I know it’s to prevent comment spam, but could they at least make the funky looking letters spell a real word, instead of akjfdlauvo and qoeuizcxko?
According to American Heritage Dictionary, a word is defined as:
A sound or a combination of sounds, or its representation in writing or printing, that symbolizes and communicates a meaning and may consist of a single morpheme or of a combination of morphemes.
I hereby implore Blogger to either start using words for verification or to refer to it as String of Random Letters Verification, because that’s what it is right now.
