Use your own judgement. A boss whould have to be a jack@ss.com to grief you over these images. I mean, yeah, there are boobies and bits, but they are like what you see in any international museum: tasteful depictions of a nude form.

Patrick and I were delighted to have Jay Allen invite us to be panel participants at this year’s South-by-Southwest conference, but there’s no way we can make it to the convention. Here’s a little bit of what I would have said on Liz Lawley’s panel on “Spammers, Trolls and Stalkers: The Pandora’s Box of Community.” The text I’m responding to is taken from Jay Allen’s letter.
“Spam, Trolls, Stalkers: The Pandora’s Box of community”
The ease with which people from all over the world can come together and create a virtual community is one of the most powerful gifts of the internet. Sites which facilitate community—from Slashdot and Metafilter to the single-author blog with comments enabled—do so first by making communication easy. Unfortunately, this also opens the gates to undesirable parasites who, at best, don’t care about your creation or, at worst, want to destroy it.
Yup. All points touch within the internet, and getting online just gets easier and easier. It’s an inescapable truth that for some people, the most interesting way to participate in online discourse is to kick holes in the conversation. Others—many of them young, but some, alas, old enough to know better—have a sense of entitlement that leads them to believe that their having an opinion means the rest of us are obliged to listen to it. Still others plainly get off on verbally abusing others, and seek out conversations that will offer them opportunities to do so. More at the link.

"A Slovak man trapped in his car under an avalanche freed himself by drinking 60 bottles of beer and urinating on the snow to melt it.
Rescue teams found Richard Kral drunk and staggering along a mountain path four days after his Audi car was buried in the Slovak Tatra mountains.
He told them that after the avalanche, he had opened his car window and tried to dig his way out.
But as he dug with his hands, he realised the snow would fill his car before he managed to break through.
He had 60 half-litre bottles of beer in his car as he was going on holiday, and after cracking one open to think about the problem he realised he could urinate on the snow to melt it, local media reported.
He said: 'I was scooping the snow from above me and packing it down below the window, and then I peed on it to melt it. It was hard and now my kidneys and liver hurt. But I'm glad the beer I took on holiday turned out to be useful and I managed to get out of there.'
Parts of Europe have this week been hit by the heaviest snowfalls since 1941, with some places registering more than ten feet of snow in 24 hours." And that, my dear friends, is using your head. And bladder.
'My labia,' I said, acting too-cool-for-this-world.
Mystified, the clerk began to laugh a little as it dawned on him that I was the one here who had no clue what was going on. 'Buddy,' he said, laughing, 'are you sure you HAVE one of those?'
Again, in a situation like this, a normal, rational person would have simply said 'oh...I guess not,' or 'I think so...what is it, again?' or hell, even just walked out.
But no. I had to lean forward, assume an expression that indicated that I was obviously trying to communicate with a retarded kid who didn't speak english, grab both eyebrows, and WHILE MANUALLY WIGGLING THEM half-shout 'Of COURSE I do! I have TWO!' Ha ha ha! Hit the link to see the full story.

We believe that there is strong possibility that the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan might be a little far away or maybe even a little too busy to be checking out the pseudopatriotic magnet on the back of a 1986 Geo Metro as it drives down I-95 or sits in an Olive Garden parking lot.
Why do you hate America?
We don't hate America, we hate that people think slapping a stupid magnet on the back of their car has meaning. Mostly everyone in this country supports the troops and hopes they will return safely. Maybe you should be telling them directly in person, on the phone or in a letter and not driving around with a big magnetic banner you probably got at Wal*Mart that simply attempts to prove to everybody but the troops that you support the troops more than everybody else.
Hey, what about the pink breast cancer ribbon, though? What are you PRO-CANCER or something you black-hearted JERK?
Oh, we're sure they're useful.
For example, say you're stuck in traffic on the Williamsburg bridge in your 2003 Chevy Suburban, and another guy, who is a breast cancer researcher, is stuck behind you talking to his wife on his cell phone. He tells her that he has just dropped the kids off at violin practice, he took the garbage out before he left -- he even unplugged the coffee maker, but he just can't shake this strange nagging feeling that he has forgotten to do something. Just as those words come out of his mouth, he glances up and sees your pink magnetic breast cancer ribbon that has "Find a Cure" written across it, at which point he comically slaps his forehead and exclaims:
"Ohhhhhh YEAH! THAT'S WHAT I FORGOT TO DO!!! YOU KNOW, FUCKING CURE CANCER! HAHA, I TOTALLY FUCKING FORGOT THAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO THAT. WTF! I TOTALLY SPACED! LOL! :P."
Hey, I'm the Chinese guy selling this magnet crap -- WHAT ABOUT ME, DAMN YOU!?
Sorry Chinese guy, it's nothing personal. China's still cool.
Okay, how about some discount herbal v1agra?
LA LA LA -- I can't hear you Chinese Guy.
Why do the bottom two bumper stickers cost more?
Not only do we provide you the materials to propagate your own backlash against our backlash, we provide you the materials to propagate your own backlash against our backlash against our backlash -- AND YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT PRICE?
I've got a funny picture of somebody's car where they have combined "the magnet" with other items of embarassing political or social sentiment -- what should I do?
E-mail it to jaybarnes@gmail.com and we may post it in a gallery! Make sure it's funny, though. Let the flamewar begin. I think there are better ways to support the young men and women out there than a stupid magnet, send them a care package.
The plans for each toy are included in various issues of the ACME Novelty Library, as well as other publications. (If you don't want to cut up them funnybooks, just scan, print, and paste them onto thicker paper, like I did.) To be honest, making them takes a bit of time, but just follow the directions and you'll be alright! It also helps if you are unemployed at the moment. Awesome, you can cut them out of the books and put them together.
For thirty-six weeks, a sketchbook was sent in random order between four artists: two in Brooklyn, two in Belfast. This is the final result of their collaborative efforts. Cool collaborative art.
The temperature in Harbin reaches forty below zero, both Fahrenheit and centigrade, and stays below freezing nearly half the year.
The city is actually further north than notoriously cold Vladivostok, Russia, just 300 miles away. So what does one do here every winter? Hold an outdoor festival, of course!
Rather than suffer the cold, the residents of Harbin celebrate it, with an annual festival of snow and ice sculptures and competitions.
Snow and ice sculpture in Harbin dates back to Manchu times, but the first organized show was held in 1963, and the annual festival itself only started in 1985.
Since then, the festival has grown into a massive event, bringing in over a million tourists from all over the world every winter.
The sculptures have become more elaborate and artistic over time; this bear and cub are just one small part of a fifty-meter-wide mural sculpture.
Most of the sculptures appearing at the snow festival are competitive entries.
Each team starts with a cube of packed snow that appears to measure about three meters on a side, and then starts carving away.
Teams come in from all over the world - Russia, Japan, Canada, France, even South Africa.
Part of the fun is guessing the nationality of the team, based on their sculpture's artistic style, before reading the signs.
The sun begins to set behind the magnificent entryway sculpture.
The snow festival is actually separate from the ice festival; both take place on the wide open spaces of Sun Island Park north of Harbin's River, Songhua Jiang.
Harbin is situated south of the river, so it's a chilly ride over to the sites. It seems even chillier when crossing the bridge over the very wide and very frozen Songhua Jiang.
I was surprised to discover this sculpture of a Native American sitting in the frozen northeast of China; sure enough, I read on the sign that a Canadian team sculpted this entry.
Chinese teams had many sculptures at the festival as well, off in another section, but a vast majority didn't measure up to these amazing works.
Even the sunsets in Harbin look cold. Though only mid-afternoon, the sun was setting over the snow festival and the temperature was falling even further below freezing. But the coming darkness was actually good news, because it meant that the ice festival was about to begin.
The ice festival, a few miles away from the snow festival, is anything but dull and colorless. Crowds flocking to the entrance are greeted by dance music booming in the distance, as if at an outdoor pop concert. And bright neon colors shine everywhere, buried within huge blocks of ice forming structures as high as thirty meters, such as this huge structure beyond the entryway. You can just make out people standing atop its blue and red stairway.
A view from atop that structure, looking back on a Russian-styled building and a mock Great Wall, both constructed out of ice. Making it to the top of this structure is an accomplishment in itself - imagine walking up a stairway of solid ice for two floors with no handrails.
The yellow block wall on the right and the balcony work on the lower left are all ice, with no internal support structure - just lights.
The Great Wall doubles as a long ice slide; just sit and go. You can pick up some serious speed and wipe out spectacularly at the bottom if you're wearing a slick coat, but you won't go anywhere if you're wearing corduroy pants.
An overview of the ice festival from atop the Great Wall of ice. It's like a Disney theme park, with multiple attractions and food hawkers and kids running around and people lined up for bathrooms. The only differences are that the temperature is about a hundred degrees colder than the typical Disney park, and all the structures are made out of ice rather than plastic - and slipping and falling here doesn't result in tremendous lawsuits.
One of the popular activities at the festival is climbing a wall of solid ice. Amazingly, I didn't see a single person fall, and most everyone made it to the top.
All the ice comes from Songhua Jiang, the nearby river, which provides a limitless supply; huge chainsaws are required to cut through the ice, which can be meters thick.
The snow festival is mostly a display of art; the ice festival is mostly a display of architecture.
Nevertheless, a number of sculptures can be found at the ice festival, such as this life-sized horse. Agile youngsters with good balance climb atop the horses to have their pictures taken. Notice the layers of ice in the horse; blocks of ice are fused together to form larger blocks so that sculptures - or huge buildings - can be made.
An entire ship constructed of ice, with passengers onboard. Though it might not be seaworthy, the ship would certainly float - after all, it's made of ice. Hundreds of years ago during the Manchu days of ice lantern art, the sculptures were lit only by candles.
A Thai temple of ice, complete with hallways and rooms inside. Long ago, Disney made a Circle-Vision 360 film called "Wonders of China" - still showing at the China pavilion in the World Showcase at EPCOT - which includes a brief section on Harbin's ice festival. In the movie, the sculptures are quite low-key, little more than blinking light bulbs inside small globes and ice carvings. Things have changed a bit since those days. I got these images and descriptions via email at work. Don't know who the originator was. The full set can be seen here at flickr.
The site that you are about to enter contains Gospel truth on an important, hot-button issue. This Gospel truth includes, but is not limited to:
SODOMY IS AN ABOMINABLE SIN, WORTHY OF DEATH.
"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." Leviticus 20:13. "Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them." Romans 1:32.
See also Leviticus 18:22, Genesis 19, Romans 1:18-32, I Corinthians 6:9-11, I Timothy 1:10, and Jude 7.
GOD HATES ALL WORKERS OF INIQUITY.
"The foolish shall not stand in thy sight, thou hatest all workers of iniquity." Psalm 5:5.
See also Leviticus 20:23, Leviticus 26:30, Deuteronomy 32:19, Psalm 5:6, Psalm 11:5, Malachi 1:3, Matthew 7:23, and Romans 9:13.
JESUS CHRIST DIED ONLY FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16.
See also John 13:1, John 17:9, Ephesians 5:25, etc.
ONLY GOD'S ELECT HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO BELIEVE.
"Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them." John 12:39,40.
See also John 10:11,26, Matthew 11:25,26, Acts 13:48, Romans 9:19-24, etc.
SODOMITES ARE PROUD OF THEIR SIN ("GAY PRIDE"), AND IN THAT PRIDEFUL STATE THEY CANNOT REPENT - YOU CANNOT REPENT OF SOMETHING YOU'RE PROUD OF.
"Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the LORD." Jeremiah 6:15.
See also Jeremiah 13:23, Romans 1:24-32, Ezekiel 16:49-50, etc.
THE SODOMITES' ONLY HOPE IS TO HAVE THE UNAMBIGUOUS TRUTH PREACHED TO THEM, AND PERHAPS GOD WILL SOFTEN THEIR HEARTS AND GRANT THEM REPENTANCE TO DEPART FROM THEIR SIN AND NAME THE NAME OF CHRIST. NOT VERY LIKELY, THOUGH, SINCE GOD HAS GIVEN THEM UP.
"Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity." II Timothy 2:19. "Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness...unto vile affections...to a reprobate mind." Romans 1:24-28.
See also II Timothy 2:24-26, Psalm 5:5, I Corinthians 6:9-11, Acts 17:30, Jude 22,23, etc.
THERE IS A HELL WHERE ALL IMPENITENT SINNERS WILL RESIDE FOR ALL ETERNITY. THAT INCLUDES SODOMITES (CALLED "DOGS").
"And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh." Isaiah 66:24. "For without are dogs..." Revelation 22:15.
See also Mark 9:44, Luke 16:23, Revelation 20:15.
In summary, sodomites are wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly (Gen. 13:13), are violent and doom nations (Gen. 19:1-25; Jgs. 19), are abominable to God (Lev. 18:22), are worthy of death for their vile, depraved, unnatural sex practices (Lev. 20:13; Rom. 1:32), are called dogs because they are filthy, impudent and libidinous (Deut. 23:17,18; Mat. 7:6; Phil. 3:2), produce by their very presence in society a kind of mass intoxication from their wine made from grapes of gall from the vine of Sodom and the fields of Gomorrah which poisons society's mores with the poison of dragons and the cruel venom of asps (Deut. 32:32,33), declare their sin and shame on their countenance (Isa. 3:9), are shameless and unable to blush (Jer. 6:15), are workers of iniquity and hated by God (Psa. 5:5), are liars and murderers (Jn. 8:44), are filthy and lawless (2 Pet. 2:7,8), are natural brute beasts (2 Pet. 2:12), are dogs eating their own vomit and sows wallowing in their own feces (2 Pet. 2:22), will proliferate at the end of the world bringing final judgment on mankind (Lk. 17:28-30), have been finally given up by God to uncleanness dishonoring their own bodies among themselves, to vile affections, and to a reprobate mind such that they cannot think straight about anything (Rom. 1:23-28), have wholly given themselves over to fornication and gone after strange flesh (Jude 7), must be pulled as faggots from the fire (Jude 23), and have no hope of Heaven unless they repent (Rev. 22:15), which they can't do in their prideful state (Jer. 6:15). They need to hear this truth if they are to have any hope of penitence, faith in Jesus Christ and salvation (I Timothy 4:2-4).

Jesus weeps for perverters of his works, I'm sure.
In countries like Japan, no one raises a fuss when the remains of aborted fetuses are given religious blessings. However, in America, this isn't the case — abortion-rights activists and an abortion clinic in Colorado have vigorously protested a local Roman Catholic Church's burial service for aborted fetuses.
The cremated remains of these fetuses had come from a mortuary that had been contracted by the abortion clinic to cremate its fetal corpses. The problem, from the clinic's perspective, was that it hadn't been informed that the mortuary had been sending the ashes to the Church to be given Christian burials. According to the clinic's director, the mothers are traumatized their aborted fetuses have been given Christian burials without their consent. As he complains:
They have taken it upon themselves to make a macabre ritual out of this, inflicting pain on everyone. I have women calling me who are very upset over this. These fanatics simply cannot leave other people alone with their most intimate sorrow.
But why did the mortuary send the ashes to the Church in the first place? According to a parish volunteer, one of the mortuary's employees first contacted the church nine years ago, "after discovering human remains in material received from the abortion clinic."
The clinic said it was just tissue, but when he opened it up he and his staff were traumatized. He asked the church what he should do, and our priest offered to bury it.... If we had not buried these ashes, they would have been thrown away in the trash. Why would they be upset that we are treating the remains of unborn children with dignity?
Just wait until Bush nominates a couple of more conservative Supreme Court Justices during the next 4 years, can you say bye-bye Roe v. Wade, hello back alley coathanger clinicians?
See the trailer and pics here. The trailer is pretty damn funny, kudos to the team who made this. The pregnancy test sequence made me laugh, she must have a huge bladder.
Bank of America call center drone thinks Canada is a US state?
from Mike Higgins(former co-worker of mine), he's back in Canada right now: In unrelated news I JUST finished convincing a Bank of America telephone banking lady that Canada was not a State, and that Bank Of America had no branches here. Seriously. It was a hard-fought argument. She wanted me to go to the nearest branch to make a payment. I said "But I'm not in the country." And she responded "I thought you said you were in Canada."
That one stumped me, I shut up for a minute or so trying to process it. ".........Canada is a different country than the States." (...long silence...)
"No, didn't... Canada became a state back in the 1950s or 60s or something."
"What? No it... that was Alaska! Canada's the big country to the RIGHT of Alaska."
She was confused and agitated. It was awesome. Honestly, I was sure she was going to say she was kidding after a while, but she never did. If she was kidding she carried the joke home, and she seemed a little angry that I wouldn't agree with her.
I have a feeling when I hung up she went and got an atlas to make sure I wasn't just too lazy to go to my nearest State branch to pay my fees off. LOL. I can see this conversation playing out in my head soooooo clearly. I wonder if the lady was at a call center in Dubai?
The Chick is caught with the office Stud. This is what happens when you turn your back on your desk! Bam! Yon stallion rides the Hershey Highway like a chocolate champion!
We've partially shifted some of our blog images to Flickr. It is a great site to store and view images. I'll still be utilizing Hello for some image storing, I like how Flickr is set up, and the tag system for assigning multiple categories for images (like snarkyspot) in the tag search section is great.

Now available are quality prints of a painting entitled "To Protect and to Rock" which depicts Steve Perry, former lead singer of Journey and defender of freedom and justice, as Robocop.
Price per print is $20 and includes shipping. If you're outside of the US, email me and we'll work out a price. Payment can be made via Paypal sent to nailhead00@aol.com.
If you prefer to send check or money order please email (joe@peachstapler.com) for that info. Doesn't really look like Steve Perry to me, but what do I know? It's still pretty cool. I want to be Robocop!
After studies indicating that Prozac is linked to a higher risk of suicide in children started emerging last year, the controversy has just become even more heated in the past weeks as confidential documents come to the attention of the medical community and the media. The British Medical Journal received secret drug company documents suggesting a link between Prozac, suicide attempts and violence from an anonymous source and has now turned them over to the US FDA after publishing them not long ago. Documents dated as far back as 1988 suggest Eli Lilly, the company producing the drug, had evidence that in clinical trials Prozac could cause behavioural disturbances. Patients and relatives report that coming off the drug has decreased their suicidal tendencies. Oops.
Found this image trolling around the net, I've seen this modern artist's work in art mags somewhere before, can't for the life of me remember what his name is (if you know, please leave me a comment telling me his name, I'll update this post), he takes photos and adds in a creepy, realistic computer generated creature. Freaky.
Two Player Tetris. Plug it into yer telly, and rock. Or drop. Whatever the correct term may be. A$79.95.
There’s probably only one thing better than being able to play Tetris on a big screen TV at home…and that’s being able to play it with or against someone else. Go head to head with your chosen foe - find out who has the best Tetris technique, before awarding the crown of tournament master. The box says world’s most addictive game and we’d have to agree - flip the blocks and clear the lines, the popularity of this game’s totally justifiable!
Not much info on this collage, website is in Swahili or something, it just caught my eye. Sorta hooked me, you might say. Or I might say. Yes, I did say.

"It's been a few years, now, since the US Army released a video game as a recruiting tool. Of course, along with becoming a video game company, the Army has now discovered that this can require more than just producing a game. Broadband Reports has the story of how the Army is now threatening to crack down on game cheaters -- and they're making it clear that you're not just messing with some gaming company, but the US Army and US Army computers, which makes cheating a cybercrime. The threats from the development team aren't specific, but they're clearly designed to 'shock & awe' the griefers and cheaters who are trying to cause trouble." Hackers will run circles around the slow moving behemoth that is the Army, I bet.
"Pssst!! I hear there are Muslims and Baptists and Zoroastrians in government too! Some of them remove pieces of their children's penises as part of a bizarre ritual!!!! Some starve themselves for days at a time!!!!" I don't know which is more interesting, the story or the comments on Mefi.
"LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Movies like 'Braveheart' and 'Legends of the Fall' are on the viewing list for men in a growing Christian movement that calls for them to throw off their 'nice guy' personas and emulate warriors.
The book which inspired the movement, John Eldredge's 'Wild at Heart,' has already sold 1.5 million copies in English and been translated into 16 languages, most recently Korean." Hot damn, gear up for the next Crusades!
To all Christian men converting to this movement: Don't throw up your kilts and moon us.

"The question, a la Carnac the Magnificent: The No. 2 and 3 industries in Norfolk, Neb., if the owner of a potential Johnny Carson shrine there has his way.
That would be Jim Pruett, who has turned to auction giant eBay in his effort to sell Johnny Carson's boyhood home for possible conversion into a Carson museum. Pruett posted an eBay listing for the property on Sunday afternoon, shortly after Carson's family announced that he had died at the age of 79." Damn, the vultures are quick. Carson's not even buried yet, and already it starts.
LOL. Dumb and simplistic Flash animation, but it made me laugh. Make sure to have your headphones on, or the cursing will make your supervisor frown at you.

This was a sample page on Blogger where someone hit the 'Next Blog' at the top of the page.
Whoa.
I thought long and hard (heh... I typed 'long and hard', huh huh...) about it before posting this and thought:
