cool little graph comparing the brits and yankees on certain key political/national/moral/environmental issues ... i was surprised to find that yanks n brits both dont like teh immigants ... unfortunately i wasn't surprised that most americans still think that 6000 years ago there was a garden with happy naked people frolicking with animals until a snake made one eat a piece of fruit thusly banishing them from this garden. comon america.

america + brain (aka any kind of critical thought) = britain.

and

i now have a new standard for hair metal.

Dith Pran, Photojournalist and Survivor of the Killing Fields, Dies at 65

He's the dood from the Killing Fields. Good movie, highly recommended by the Scarlett Pimpernel. And it's got Sam Waterston in it.

(Really struggled to try to make my 4 tag minimum on this one)

NEWSPAPER CAPTION: "BUNNY" MASK: Little Flores Chrysollsus is all wrapped up in his chemical mask made of chemically impregnated material. His mother has tied the mask firmly around his middle. The "bunny" mask has been approved by the U.S. Army chemical warfare division. The big rabbit ears are for fun. Vision is possible through the composition glass window.

Bizzaro World of Politics and Law

The Supreme Court just overruled Bush. They said Bush can't tell Texas that the state is prohibited from executing foreigners when refusing contact between the condemned and their native consulate. Yes, you read correct: Bush was trying to stay an execution.

And on a lighter note: dood writes check on TP for waterbill

And yes, it's legal. (UPDATE: Educate yourself on the law)

Fitting that I spent Easter morning buying Popeye's. Maybe this was the reason for the 25 minute wait in the drive-thru line.

... yes, but is it art ?

spam.
the scourge of all people who use email as a major conduit of communication.

brent gustafson is an american video artist who uses video games as not only a form of inspiration but as a sort of base medium. he lent a piece to the gallery i work for last summer as part of a group show entitled "Gameplay: Video Games in Contemporary Art Practice". the piece was R.I.G. a "video of three games played simultaneously through one video connection." pretty cool. but the piece i really like is entitled AXBX and is a web based work. around the time this show was up i started collecting the strange gif attachments i was receiving in my spam. i have long been a fan/hater of spam. i hate the volume, but love the sometimes beautifully strange messages that are fabricated. i started collecting these gifs with the intention of doing some kind of collage or visual project with it. after studying AXBX, i saw an easy way to apply the new computer graphic structure to this style of presentation. unfortunately this trend of strange gif attachments seem to be out of vogue in the world of spammers and i'm worried that i will not be able to continue building the catalog of images it draws from. so as strange a request as this might sound, if anyone comes across really strange image attachments in their spam, send em my way.

so here 'tis.
