Family Circus
Not by wrath does one kill, but by laughter.

Now this is pure genius!

The Nietzsche Family Circus pairs a randomized Family Circus cartoon with a randomized Friedrich Nietzsche quote. [Source]

Note the poor little server is getting hammered. Wired had it. Wonder if it got dugg.

These are so apropos! Like mirrors into our lives. Big, gigantic mirrors!

Giant Insect Spotted in Germany September 28, 2006 12:26 pm

What would we do without Google Maps?! This bug was last seen in Germany making a toxic spill in a farmer’s crop.

So, can I assume by this image that:

  1. Space bugs are invading
  2. Roaches live in space
  3. The high imaging satellite was infested
  4. We don’t really have satellites in space. Google maps are done with studio trickery just like the moon landing and this bug walked across an artist rendering just as the picture was made. Btw, the Earth is flat.

Now that the Jeff Goldblum is watching you poop website is gone (yes, that link is intentionally broken) we have to look to other sites to remember why Jeff Goldblum is watching you poop. Of course, the Wayback Machine has the site. Looks like med school took presidence.

So, onto replacement sites! Now we have the Ceiling Cat watching you masterbate. I thought everytime you masterbated a kitten died? What if the Ceiling Cat was that kitten?

Patent Pending August 18, 2006 8:37 am

So, this tells me a few things.

  1. Anyone can get a patent.
  2. A patent doesn’t make it a good idea.
  3. This patent owner has obviously never owned a dog. (probably an irrate petless walker that has stepped in one too many landmines)
  4. You don’t have to know how to use Photoshop to get a patent.
  5. Peanuts come from dog butts.

This comes at a timely moment as I am quoting a patent attorney on a web project today. I’ll have to share patent US 7,090,268 B2 with them.

Another reason to love Firefox July 31, 2006 9:23 am

So I described a day in our lives. A highlight of Friday’s funnies was a sudden and dramatic power outage. I would say we had lightning very near the house. We lost the upstairs cable box (try living without your digital guide a couple of days! How 90s! How did we ever live before?) and my Linux server was scrambled (after reseting the cmos and some integrity checks, it lives again).

What does this have to do with Firefox? I had been on BusyMom’s site typing a long comment and was moving my mouse to press the post button when the power went out. When I restored all the machines my window came up with all my typing still in the form field. I believe I have SessionSaver .2 to thank for this!

I can’t wait to start making this house more self-sufficient regarding power.

Can I thank Barry enough?! Code Monkey by Jonathon Coulton brings it home for the programmers! This is really a great song and Jonathon provides the cords. Now where’s my guitar?
