McCarty allegedly told police he wanted to be arrested “for being stupid.” When police told him that wasn’t a crime, he took police to his apartment and handed over marijuana and drug paraphernalia.

That was clearly one heavy smoke!

This is when I wish I hadn’t bunked gym at school

At the Albertville winter Olympics, condom machines in the athletes� village had to be refilled every two hours. And in Sydney the organisers� original order of 70,000 condoms went so fast that they had to order 20,000 more. Even with the replenishment, the supply was exhausted three days before the end of the competition schedule. Salt Lake City in 2002 went even bigger: 250,000 condoms were handed out, despite the objections of the city�s Mormon leadership.

Look at the lickle horses…

Posted at 8:29am on Friday, July 16th, 2004

Guide Horses. You heard me. Miniature horses for the blind. With little shoes on to protect the carpet when they’re indoors. I don’t know what to say. Apparently individuals who fear dogs are often comfortable working with a tiny horse. Really? In their houses? Are you sure?

Update on Allmusic

Posted at 12:14pm on Thursday, July 15th, 2004

Andy over at waxy.org mailed Allmusic with his complaints about the site… they responded… You have to feel sorry for them I guess - your users having the expectations they do must be hard. (Not that I forgive them - it’s still very very poor).

Lovely lovely Funjunkie

Posted at 8:47am on Thursday, July 15th, 2004

Ah, lovely lovely Funjunkie. They like stoopid games. I like stoopid games. I particularly like games with both “Monkey” and “Toss” in the name (like, say, monkey toss). I also like really fiendish puzzly games (like fruity shuffle and Lobotomy Bots). There’ll be more on Friday as well. Probably lots. Visit them.
