Ten top reasons to vote for Ralph Nader in 2004:

1.Nader hasn't started a war to impress his Daddy.
2.Michael Moore doesn't want you to.
3.Ralph's rogueish misunderstood-anti-hero charm.
4.Those other candidates are phoneys and also lie too much too.
5.Because you hate liberals and conservatives equally.
6.You're stubborn and ornary and so is Nader.
7.Confuse the terrorists.
8.Nerds should only vote for fellow Nerds.
9.Freak out the pollsters.
10.Nader doesn't run stupid and annoying political campaign tv ads.

Have you lost your voter virginity, yet?

Apparently this is a real slogan an independent group is using to encourage Americans between the ages of 18 and 29 to vote.

Only five more weeks to go and then another few months to figure out the correct vote count! Will this election ever end????

To Be or Not To Be...

Exciting news for Shakespeare aficionados. The British Library has digitized 93 copies of 21 plays written by the most genius writer of all time. The quartos can be viewed online at The British Library web site.

Here is some background information on the quartos from the web site:

"Why are the quartos important?

None of Shakespeare’s manuscripts survive, so the printed texts of his plays are our only source for what he originally wrote. The quarto editions are the texts closest to Shakespeare’s time. Some are thought to preserve either his working drafts (his foul papers) or his fair copies. Others are thought to record versions remembered by actors who performed the plays, providing information about staging practices in Shakespeare’s day."

Who can't respect President George W. Bush for taking the time to visit Russia in order to pay tribute to the victims of the Beslan school siege?

Down...Set...Hike!

Grunts. Bellowing. Football. Lots of male testosterone--something I will never understand. I think of my brothers playing Madden Football, or any of the guys I know, and chuckle. I guess its almost like Kizze and Foggity Bloggity and Dirty Dancing.

To live some of the experience of Madden Football listen to none other but NPRs very own Morning Edition.

Sounds like something from a movie this "Black Triangle" sighting phenomenon. The Black Triangle seems to appear out of nowhere and isn't very shy when it does. Read the story on space.com.

The Star Wars Kid made one mistake. But one mistake is all you need to become ridiculously famous.

The Star Wars Kid was a 15 year old high school student in Quebec who dreamed of being like Darth Maul. He makes a personal video tape of him reenacting Darth Maul's fight scenes. Little does he know that his so-called friends find the video and post it on the Internet for all the world to see. The Star Wars Kid has become an international sensation as varieties of his original film have been created and posted online.

To experience the Star Wars Kid et al go to Screaming Pickle.com and download video clips featuring the Stars Wars Kid himself.

A Must See

Watch out for Control Room, coming soon (hopefully!) to a theater near you! It only played for a few days here in Austin and that was because an activist group here sponsored the showings.

Control Room is quite thought provoking and I feel pretty disheartened about the information we receive, both from the media and from our nation's leaders.

Warning: While the movie is not rated, it does have some graphic scenes and intense moments.

Listen to a dialogue about political commentaries, including The Fog of War, Fahrenheit 9/11, and Control Room, on Talk of the Nation on NPR.

Goes to show that a high falootin' education doesn't mean a thing....

Is he speaking at grade level?

"First of all, we're in the country now, so no more black."
"No more black, are you insane?"
"You heard me. Only high-powered and neurotic, castrating Manhattan career b$%*!es wear black. Is that what you wanna be?"
"Ever since I was a little girl."

Here's a fun movie: The Stepford Wives

Men can learn a lot from it!

In cases of doubtful morality, it is usual to say, Is there any harm in doing this? This question may sometimes be best answered by asking ourselves another: Is there any harm in letting it alone? -- Colton.

So here is a web site that lists more recent movies and their offensive content.

To be taken with a grain of salt.

Goes to show that everyone can be called to jury duty.

You're Vatican City!

You're pretty sure that you're infallible in all that you do or say, and
it's hard to say whether you're right.  You have a lot of followers, most of whom will
do whatever you say without question, or line up to see you ride around in your spiffy car.
 Religious and reserved, you have some wisdom, but also a bit much contempt for everyone
around you.  You're also fabulously wealthy, no matter what you say to the contrary.
