Elisabeth Hassleback

September 11th, 2008

“Cindy came into our hair and makeup room, fresh as can be, and unlike another wife of a political candidate who shall remain nameless, she didn’t come with a list of topics that we weren’t allowed to touch. Nope, that’s because she has nothing to hide.” __ Elisabeth Hassleback.

No, that’s because Cindy McCain is, to quote her husband, a “stupid cunt”. Hey, those are his words, not mine.

In my own words, she is a vacuous bimbo trophy wife who is about as smart as a postage stamp. Seriously, this woman makes Dan Quayle look like a Rhodes Scholar. Remember her wonderfully stupid quote about how Sarah Palin had International experience because Alaska is “close to Russia”? Really. She said that.

I guess it makes sense that Elisabeth likes Cindy. After all, those vacuous bimbos need to stick together.

Sometimes Slashdot doesn’t suck

September 9th, 2008

Slashbot >> Why is Gecko worth keeping if it is outdated and bloated?

Slashdot > Because it has a cooler name than the boring sounding WebKit. Besides, it’ll save you 15% on car insurance.

Slashdot Though it was so easy, even a caveman could code it.

Why is Guitar Hero so much fun?

September 7th, 2008

So, I was lucky enough to be given a copy of Guitar Hero for the Wii this weekend. After putting in a good solid 6 hours and getting most of the way through the newbie skill level (got up to the Devil Went Down to Georgia challenge and got pwned) I finally figured out why the game works as well as it does.

The thing is, despite having no actual resemblance to playing a Guitar, the game makes you feel like you are playing a guitar, and that, ultimately, is enough.  the game is excellent, and has some great songs on it.  Be sure and check out the store for extra songs, there’s some excellnet hidden gems in there.  I got 5 stars on the Kaiser Chiefs song. :)

If you’ve dimissed Guitar Hero for any reason, you might give it a try anyway, it’s a lot more fun than I expected. Now I have to get a second ‘guitar’ for it.

The Electoral College Map

September 7th, 2008

Just a quick reminder, this is the only thing that matters for who is elected President. National percentage polls are meaningless unless broken down by states.

How do you know the Republicans are lying?

Their lips are moving.
