Commented on Mystery bone photos at Treehugger
Based on Takuan, Arcadian, and The Life Of Bryan, I'd say that police need to be on the lookout for an antelope in the area, known to be an accomplice of the victim ("play" was apparently just a setup)....

Commented on Smithsonian magazine on synthetic diamonds that fool experts

Commented on Boing Boing Boing Song
I'd love for Freezepop to do a mutated version: "Boing Boing (Let's Go Back to My Room)" - presumably about having an all-night discussion of science fiction, art, high-technology, and steampunk. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR1JaAuKLTs...

Commented on Talking doll establishes "direct connection with Jesus" says commercial
Erm, yeah... As #4 kromekoran indirectly alluded, this goes just a tad over the line regarding "no graven images." In fact, it does a spritely jig over it while strangling it with a kung fu grip. However, I'd love an...

Commented on Eveready Harton: world's first porn cartoon character?
Nineteen kinds of awesome - thanks, BB/Mark. #4 Wareq: proud forerunners of Rule 34. I can imagine the reaction at the time: "You win 1,000 telegraphs, my good fellow. May I kindly have moar, plox?"...

Commented on Jewelry made from cast octopus tentacles
Crazy Abdul says, "Ia! Ia! This is the best ring I have in my vast, non-Euclidean warehouse. Buy it now and be assured that you'll be eaten first when the stars are right!" That's Crazy Abdul - his prices (and...

Commented on T-shirt with picture of armed robot endangers British aviation system
A worthy experiment might be two folks with different shirts. The first has a pic of a gun with "This is not a gun" underneath it. The second has a pic of Magritte's pipe with "This is a gun" underneath...

Commented on Oregon continues to insist that its laws are copyrighted and can't be published
Are Oregonians or anyone else (like tax preparers) permitted to read the state-printed tax forms? Can't read = can't pay. How about driver's licenses? "Yes, officer, I have a card in my wallet that may be my driver's license, but...

Commented on Getting baked before shooting AKs at the Taliban: a bad idea.
Couldn't hoit... As long as you're killing fellow humans, why not be doped up? You can argue the point of justification (i.e. to prevent the enemy from killing you or yours) and I'll even agree, but it comes down to...

Commented on Sleazy <em>proposed</em> new Dungeons and Dragons license seeks to poison open gaming systems
Sadly, not surprising. I viewed their 3rd ed. license as a ploy to expand the popularity of the "D&D" brand, and this is the result. I haven't played D&D since the 1st edition back in high school (via some friends)....
