In Celebration of the Holiday Season

Since every day until Halloween is Halloween, I will celebrate by posting the scariest things I can think of in the moment before I post. This will most likely result in postings of Count Chocula commercials curiously uploaded by some bizarre, commercially-infatuated individual onto Youtube.

Such as this one.

Senator John Kerry, Is That You?

A new post

Only so that we wouldn’t have to see that wonderful sampling from the Internet posted by Arnie the instant the BLOGSPLOG! page loads. Instead, I give you: slugama!

Speaking of witch, tell your friends that BLOGSPLOG! is awesome!

Halloween Time is Here!

And it has been for three weeks.

At least, you couldn’t tell my neighbor otherwise. Protests like, “It’s not even October,” “It’s not even fall,” or, “It’s Fourth of July,” fall on deaf ears. He loves his Halloween.

I don’t want to be one of the guys ranting about how holidays are celebrated earlier and earlier each year, more because I don’t feel like writing on that rather, as the celebration of the holiday seasons are too frivolously extended.

I merely want to point out that there’s something different between a person eager to celebrate Christmas, whether for the birth of the messiah or for the birth of retail-salvaging profits, compared to the person eager to celebrate the holiday of death and misery.

John Kanzius and Isaac Newton…these guys hanging out in the history books?

Acknowledged: I know nothing about physics.

Acknowledged: This is probably just a case of something being far too good to be true.

But when I first read about it, I was in awe of the potential. I’m now in awe of the imagery. It is astounding what this video shows. Even if it is never harnessed for energy, just the fact that water can essentially “burn” in this fashion…its unprecedented. It’s like discovering how gravity works or something.

Ugh.

I respect Jon Kitna and I’ve always enjoyed his football.

I believe he has a great story and he’s definitely one of those underdog types who plays selflessly and really enjoys being involved with the game in any capacity that he can.

That said, this article is filled with the worst kind of tripe about how football (a game) compares somehow to “faith” and “religion” and a whole other variety of flowery words that the oh so enlightened writer could use.

I found myself irked the entire time that I read it and I have to believe that Jon Kitna feels the same.

An egregious error in judgement

Ladies and gentleman of the house and senate. I have called this meeting today to discuss something of topical importance. Something that has been long troubling our society and something which, if not addressed with some immediacy, may find our country seeped in one of its most troubling ages to date. And yes, I realize that our country is filled with some dark times.

Oddly enough, we as a people tend to gloss over the issues most important to us in times that they can be easily ignored. Perhaps people in the seventies should have been more concerned with their tripling gas prices and frequent desperation for more fuel and excessive pollution. If they had been, than just maybe we would already be using hydrogen or some other type of fuel base to run our vehicles.

I have gathered you all today to speak not about the past, however, but the future. Where our country is headed and where we are right this minute and how this minute can affect the minute after it and the subsequent minutes that follow.

Ladies and gentleman of congress, there lays atop this country a plague. A plague of indifference to an important issue that separates man from his brother, and woman from her mate.

I shall cut to the chase, ladies and gentleman of congress.

We must abolish race in this country.

Apples Attack!

When we last left our intrepid warriors, we discovered that hackers had defeated the evil phone empire and their horrible Apples. But, as we know, every time an empire’s large technological scheme is destroyed, they strike back.

As of right now, it’s hard to tell if they’re using scare tactics by saying, “You won’t get all our quality updates!” or if they’re saying, “Yeah, the next update you get will give you a brand new glass paperweight if you’re phone’s unlocked.” This could be highly entertaining. My lawyer senses are tingling as multitudes of lawyers use their new iPhones to contact representatives for a deliciously huge class action  lawsuit against the Big Apple.

Vault the Environmental Poll

The BBC has a story about a recently-released poll regarding the causes of climate change and how much needs to change in our own lives to stave off the dire predictions. And yet the pollsters fail to consider one fundamental element vital to their efforts.
