What if a fish swallowed Google?

Google is currently holding a contest for the next Google logo and everyone can vote for their favorite drawing done by students in various grades.  The theme for the drawings is "What if...".  I have found the ultimate logo.

Vote for this Google logo.  You don't even need to see the others.  They suck.  This rules.
Poogle!

The worst week of my life.

At least I passed chemistry.  Now all I have to do is memorize 5 pages (front and back) of theorem proofs for Modern Algebra on Friday.  Oh, and learn Modern Algebra.

Some things I forgot to mention about that projector:  The remote is the Millennium Falcon WITH removable stand.  It can also recline to project on the ceiling.  AND there's a video of it that you can watch here.  This can all be yours (or mine!) for only $2900.

Water is terrifying because:
1) It, in itself, can kill you.
2) It can create whirlpools, which make water kill you faster.
3) Huge, monstrous, unknown creatures live in water.  They can and will eat you or severely maim you, thus causing water to kill you.

 The punch line is: Over half our planet is covered in life threatening water.  Joke's on us.

There are some words which I have known since I was a schoolboy. "With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably." These words were uttered by Judge Aaron Satie -- as a wisdom, and warning. The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, we're all damaged.

Which Fantasy/SciFi Character Are You?

Yes, Jean-Luc, yes.  Out of all fantasy/sci-fi characters, I am you.

Spotlight on Clevelands:

In honor of Bill Cleveland's 21st year of life coming to a close, I decided to point out some of the strange similarities between Bill Cleveland and Cleveland.

The first electric automatic traffic light was installed in Cleveland.  Bill Cleveland often utilizes electric automatic traffic lights.

Cleveland is home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  Bill Cleveland likes listening to rock and roll music.

Cleveland is the first city to be lit electrically.  Bill Cleveland uses electric lights and electricity every single day.

The Drew Carey Show is set in Cleveland.  Bill Cleveland has been known to watch the Drew Carey Show.

And perhaps the most damning similarity of all:
Bill Cleveland's last name is Cleveland.  Cleveland's name is...CLEVELAND.

Bill vs cleveland
Bill vs cleveland
Happy birthday, Bill!!!

I think the internet's down again...

This is the straight dope: Comcast sucks.  It is completely unreliable and slow.  My internet connection goes down at least once a day, I can't consistently stream movies or download music, and I can't switch to another ISP because Comcast is the only one servicing my neighborhood.
For example, before I could create this blog I had to power cycle my modem.  Now, approximately 7 minutes later, I have to do it again because my internet just stopped working.
Fucking comcast....
