Water filled plastic bags on trees scare bugs away?

I know this works because all of the programmers at Microsoft have plastic bags of water hanging over their cubicals, and Vista is bug-free.

Anti-emo pogroms rage throughout Mexico

Interesting anti-graffiti sign

March 10, 2008 12:59pm

When sitting around with my lefty pals one-upping eachother on how progressive we are, if the conversation turns to graffiti ("street art" give me a fuckin' break), I pull an immediate 180.

Graffiti is pure evil. It is is not self-expression, it is narcissism.

as #19 pointed out this is part of state law. It has been around a long time and is required of all state employees. I remember having to sign it when I was a TA and RA at UCLA back in the early nineties.

I generally added a signing statement along the lines of "Signed only as a condition of employment." I figured that was the moral equivalent of crossing my fingers.

If they keep publicizing this type of information, it will increase demand and prices will go up.

Ford: Car owners are pirates if they distribute pictures of their own cars

January 14, 2008 9:06am

If they want me to be a Ford, they would have to change the name. I am not going to go around in any shape or form spreading the legacy of Henry Ford.

I'm glad the company is limiting its dissemination -- clearly unprotected trademarks is now the World's Foremost Problem.

Dang, that would have been much funnier if I didn't have a brain fart and would have written FSM like I meant.

I'm pretty sure I saw the FSW in a Dennis Kucinich ad.

Pastafarians are not necessarily atheists.

Those who have been touched by his noodly appendage only unite in their belief that others should not proselytize their beliefs in the public sphere.

I don't know why everyone is so snide about this. I think it is great. I just sent in three 1968 pennies.

No friends yet.
