I found a link for the Heroes fans to watch all the episodes online. Then, I found a horrible story:
“I believe he needed more than 50 stitches to repair the damage, but he is back home at this point,” police Cpl. Brad Stevens said Friday. “All we can tell you is that the injury was done with her hands. There were no weapons used.”
This made me think of Neutered-Man, which means I must go watch Orgazmo again. Ah, the simple life of a pr0n-star…
Now, how to use this information…
A common parasite can increase a women’s attractiveness to the opposite sex but also make men more stupid, an Australian researcher says.
Dear Microsoft,
It has just come to my attention that you sending laptops to bloggers who review Vista. I am a blogger. I will review Vista for the low low price of an Xbox 360 Premium, a far lower price than your previous reviews. Please contact me as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Uruloki

USAFA has already given me a Christmas present:
Troy Calhoun became the first former Air Force player to head the Falcons’ football program, rejoining the program Friday as longtime coach Fisher DeBerry’s replacement.
Color me surprised, as I didn’t know that GeneralCoach DeBerry had retired. Now it’s the time for the traditional prognosticating by some who doesn’t know shit, i.e. me. We’re going to suck, which isn’t a change, and which I don’t mind. What I do mind is losing every year to the goat-fsckers at the Naval Academy and the dirt-eaters at the USMA. If Calhoun can beat those guys every year, I don’t care if we lose every other game.
I just got the new Live album, Songs from Black Mountain. I am a huge Live fan, but their latest efforts of V, Birds of Pray, and Songs from Black Mountain are huge come downs for me from what go me turned on to them, Throwing Copper. It’s bad enough that when I popped the latest into Media Player and it was automatically categorized as POP, but I should not be seeing them on American Idol. I’m not the only one who feels this way as can be seen:
I got an advance of Songs to review and we started to listen to it together. We got four songs into it and she was pretty depressed. Ed was happy and it was killing the music. Live had gotten soft. She officially abandoned all hope when the band appeared on American Idol’s season finale last month. It was the final nail.
They are no longer on the must buy list. Another review from an admitted fan is at sokabs.com, and he seems to like it for the same reason that I don’t as much:
The River: This first track is the current single from the album, released in the USA on January 31st. It features a highly infectious groove, which Kowalczyk has described as probably “the most memorable melody we’ve ever recorded.” I would have to concur with this statement. It’s a great song, which I find reminiscent of the sound from The Distance to Here and Birds of Pray. “La da da daa, La da da da da” starts the song out, and I can’t help but sing along with this part — my 3 kids have even been singing this part all weekend. As far as radio play and hit-factor, “The River” should prove to be this album’s greatest commercial success. I certainly have Live songs which I prefer over this one, but it’s solid and will satisfy any Live fan and probably help the band catch some new ones.
It’s a kids radio song that is the best on the album. I got into Live when they were unhappy and it showed, them and Soundgarden got me through high school. Getting married and having kids may have been good for Kowalczyk & co., but it killed one of my favorite bands. It’s official, I’m old now as even my regular bands can’t measure up to the “olden days.”
The other day was the final trip to the sandbox for Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. As he was headed out, I went out to the flight line for hopefully my only handshake of more than 4,000 DVs that have transited my area. Otter planned it all and did a bang up job as usual. I did get to shake his hand and say thank you, Smash did as well (back in DC). Regardless of what some people think, those of us that worked for him and didn’t get our dicks stepped on because we couldn’t change and adapt think he did a pretty damn good job.
Look, I know I just do the grunt work around here. It’s my job, and I am happy to do it. So why am I the one that is thinking strategic in this office?
Here’s a little background. One of the biggest parts of my job is decorations. Writing and editing personal decorations and unit decorations is what I do more than anything else around here. I happen to think I’m pretty damn good at it, which I suppose maybe, just maybe, makes me think I know something about doing them.
Right now we have a tasker from our parent unit to provide input for the Meritorious Unit Award. Easy peasy. Go back over the time period in question (which is an issue in and of itself), pull the highlights, write them out in decoration-speak, and send them up. They asked for two pages, I’ve got three of which they will use, at most, a paragraph. No problem, that’s life. Here’s the issue: we do a lot of stuff here that, guess what, noone that doesn’t live here cares anything about. Not to mention the fact that there are multiple rotations for the time period in question which makes out local accomplishments even smaller.
I went through and pulled out some major events that our unit has contributed to over the period, and we’re looking pretty spiffy. As a matter of fact, I upgraded our chances of being in the final writeup from one sentence to one paragraph. And then I sent it in #2 as a “draft” when I know damn well that what I wrote was Grade-A. He pulls out the email that got sent out in the middle of the rotation to pat ourselves on the back and starts asking about all the stuff in it. The good parts I have already included since hey, they are a continuation of what we’ve been doing for years. Check, check, and check. The extra stuff? The stuff that only means anything to us? Didn’t make it in. This is strategic, not tactical. He buys off on that kind of logical thinking.
Added a few details, reprint, give to #2. Except… Except #1 is standing there and I (oh so thoughtful, that’s me!) included the damn laundry list of happy stuff with little marks next to the items that didn’t get in. “Waaaaaa” Guess who reverses course full throttle now? That’s right, #2 asks me to rewrite to include some of the happy bullets. Ok fine. The next draft (which I am still waiting on feedback for BTW) has the extra happy bullets. What I somehow think they are going to miss is the fact that the “spacing” on the document is such that they are all on the last page with nothing else. It’s not going to be very hard to lose that one…
