Today the cafeteria was crawling with roaches. I don’t know what bothers me more: roaches, or the fact that the cafeteria is filthy enough to host them. Sorry lady, those aren’t dates and raisins in the oatmeal, so don’t even try to charge me extra.
The other thing that bothers me is old people who sample grapes and cherries at supermarkets. You’ve seen them — old women loitering around the grapes, reaching their bingo-marker-stained fingers into the bags. I can’t buy a bag without it being pre-opened and a few fruits snapped off.
My worst experience with this phenomena was at the Whole Foods. I left one of my grocery bags at the cashiers, noticed I left it when I was loading my groceries in my car, and returned to get it. By the time I returned, the cashier had sent my bag to the customer service desk — where there was a woman with a fist full of my cherries in her hand. She didn’t even bother to apologize and handed me my bag with one hand, and stuffed my cherries in her mouth with the other. I stopped shopping at Whole Foods after that (until I forgot last week and bought beer and cheese there).
$12-15-a-Gallon Gas is on the way according to this article. That’s the ultimate craziness. I’m paying about $45 a week on gas, and I have a 4 cylinder car. At $15 a gallon, that’s $145, which is $7540 a year. I have friends that pay over $100 a week now. And don’t forget, when fuel prices go up, so does the price of everything that gets shipped — food, clothes, Xbox games. And food prices go up because tractors use fuel (time to buy mules). Not a pretty picture.
I’m not a cop, so I guess I’ll be the guy with the Mohawk hairdo who attacks tankers full of gas.
Superfast Interweb: Apparently there’s a new type of interweb being developed by smart people called the grid. 10,000 times faster that what you’ve got today, enabling you to download feature films in seconds. Don’t expect it to come soon to America — I’m sure the media and telecable companies and gubmint will prevent it from getting to your ‘puters anytime soon.
You might remember the ladies who did the video of Daft Punk’s Harder Faster Stronger Etcetera… they’re back with a drunk version. Video in the ‘More’ section.
Used to be credit card criminals would have to hack websites, take a photo of your card when you bought gas, sift through your trash, etc, for credit card numbers. Now all they need to do is put an $8 box next to your buttocks. See the video of how this is done:
When your credit card number is stolen and abused you get hurt, and merchants do as well, as they often take the loss when someone buys goods with a stolen card.

I don’t get much spam email at work, probably because I never gave my email address out to anyone or any company. That said, the spam I do get is typically from Pakistan or India, and it’s usually pretty funny. Look at this gem from Pakistan. Basically if you send them a bunch of money, they’ll remove your black magic curses.
Dear, friend!
IS SOME ONE USING BLACK MAGIC UPON YOU ?
Due to jealousy, heart burning or some base cause, the Tantriks use
cheap tactics to overcome the adversaries, which ruins one’s life. Are
youalso under such a spell?
We must have peace and happiness in life, and to achieve the same we
work hard. But we do not get in return to the proportions of ourlabour.
We get very little even after the best of our efforts, we toil to get
success in our business but the profits are too little. We do not want
any discontentment or discord in our family life, but inspite of our
best efforts, the peace and tranquility of our family is disturbed.
On the other hand people work very little, but get too much in return.
Businessmen have ample wealth just be putting in little efforts, bUt we
are disappointed even after continuous efforts. It leads us to conclude,
that there are some evil forces which make our strategies unsuccessful.
Tantrik Prayog : Major Causes
Whenever you face such situations, feel assured that someone has used
Black Magic on you, as a result of which all your efforts become
ineffective.
Though such prayog is not easy, but some Tantriks expertise in it and
torture innocent souls at the behest of selfish and greedy people. Such
Tantriks have made Black Magic their profession, and use it on others
indiscriminately at the behest of their adversaries, to mint money. Thus
the happy life of the people is spoiled.
Such so-called Black-Magicians, no doubt can harm others, but they do
not
possess the powers to counter such moves. As a result the victim keeps
on
suffering and sometimes it leads to the death of the victim. It is in
fact
very easy to cause harm through Tantra, but very difficult to amend the
damage done. In order to learn the art of saving, one has to WORK hard
and
only a amil of high caliber can do so.

In the past I’ve had internet arguments with folks about the Muppets singing Mah Nà Mah Nà. I’m old, and I remember them singing it on Sesame Street, but the know it alls on the interweb said it only happened on the Muppet Show. F the know it alls because they are wrong. Thanks to the Wikipedia, I have documented proof!
The song became familiar to many from its renditions by the Muppets on national television. On November 30, 1969, “Mahna Mahna” was performed on the The Ed Sullivan Show by a Muppet also known as Mahna Mahna, and the Snowths. Also in 1969, “Mahna Mahna” was performed on Sesame Street by a character that was later known as Bip Bipadotta, along with two Anything Muppet girls.

In 1976, the first episode of The Muppet Show to be recorded (featuring Juliet Prowse), used “Mahna Mahna” as the first sketch. It was performed by the Muppets “Mahna Mahna and the Snowths”. As a result, the original Piero Umiliani recording finally became a hit in the UK, where the Muppet Show soundtrack album featuring the Muppets’ version went to number one.
Here’s a sweet video of a dude who accidentally turned his skin blue by taking some kind of silver-based solution. Papa Smurf. I feel sorry for him. I accidentally turned my belly fat by taking too much pizza and beer, so I can relate!
