Coming over all political for a second.

NPR reported Bush’s proposed tax rebate that the House of Representatives passed to boost the economy. We, the American people, all get some money back from the government if the Senate passes it; that’s the gyst. Did we not do this at the beginning of Bush’s presidency? Does anyone remember if it actually helped anything other than Bush’s approval rating with the stupid and the millionaires who received much larger rebates?

A-HA!

Probably making the rounds in the meme-sphere, etc., but this did make me laugh to beat the band.

Halo is no big deal.

This about sums it up. I know that from the perspective of match-making systems and other such meta-information about the game, it has made some strides, but the experience that my friends are having does not include that. So what are people going on about? (I mean, about what are people going on? ACK! Prepositions galore! About what are people on-going?)

Packed with bruises, kung fu really satisfies.

As I head off this week to intern at the nation’s largest stage combat workshop, I watch this with glee and dread. Plus, it seems to focus on some sort of autistic savant of the martial, which tweaks me in the right places. My sister has a genetic condition similar to autism that I’ve considered writing into fantasy short stories. Nothing new under the sun.

Ia! Ia! Spam Fthagn!

Perhaps it’s due to my recent Lovecraftian splurge — in just the last few days, I’ve busted open Arkham Horror, Dark Corners of the Earth, and my friend’s latest novel (although even he admits it more in the style of Stephen King than his previous) — but the spam below has horrific underpinnings, as though it were written by a cruel, arcane intelligence. The proximity of the words feline, cirrhosis, postmortem, fecal, pregnancy, nightmares and quarantine, along with the obtuse and alien words interspersed, casts an eerie greenish patina over the simple links held within it.

“It would mask when antabuse trademark including feline buy tussionex no prescription min to phenergan with codeine lortab cirrhosis.
