This is the blog of a one Ben Wilson, a Louisville, Kentucky native who enjoys baseball, beer, music, bikes, things that fly and good food. By day he pushes pixels and makes the Internet happen for a local advertising agency. His wife, Kelly is an Ironman, and his baby Amelia is the cutest thing ever. |
This is the bittersweet tale of Mike, the rooster from Fruita, Colorado, who in the 1940′s lived for 18 months with NO HEAD. It’s bizarre, but the people in Fruita are honoring him with a 300 pound statue. To hell with Merriwether Lewis, i want a HEADLESS CHICKEN!
ADDENDUM: Here is the full story, with pictures of Mike, the Headless Chicken.
Wow. John Katz, author of _Geeks_, and frequent Slashdot writer, has posted a very interesting story about his “Showdown with the Pinkertons” over a program called WAVE, which promotes a “thoughcrime” sort of system, where students can “inform” administrators about possible “threats” at school. John Katz has written at length on the subject of the ostracization of outsiders in todays schools, not to mention todays society. The article is a bit long, but it is well worth the read. And feel free to comment. I’m tired of seeing 0 replies :)
Yee-ha! Netscape 6 is out. Now, I know what you are thinking… what’s the big deal, eh? Well, Netscape 6 is built around a completely different core, it’s fast, small and is standardized, so no need for multiple browsers! This thing is only a 5.5 meg download, too! So, go here. If you want the small download, go through the Custom setup and uncheck all that extraneous crap like the Instant Messenger and Composer. I’m so happy! If that makes me a geek, the so be it! (I’m so lonely… hehe)
My new-favorite site, Chickenhead.com, has come up with another comedic nugget, called Frat-Beat Magazine. Absolutely hilarious. Plenty of homo-eroticism jokes and plenty of pics of wasted Greeks projectile vomiting! ROCK!
Finally! You twist a mans arm long enough, and eventually he’ll cry uncle. George Lucas has finally apologized for Jar Jar Binks. Check it out here.
This first clip is Budweiser’s newest take on the ‘Whassup’ ads. It’s WASABE this time. Rather hilarious. And secondly, this one is rather funny as well… nothing like wacky basketball to child collision humor.
That’s right, oh mah BROTHERS and SISTERS! CAST out your DEMONS! Let Demon Buster save your WRETCHED soul! Check the Alphabetical Index of Deliverance for Salvation!
The SODA Constructor
Eve sez: “For all you mildly-interested-in-engineering geek-os this is pretty cool:”
It’s a 2D wire frame constructor, and you can animate you creations! Gravity, Friction, Force, it’s all tweakable, and VERY addictive.
It’s from a British site called Soda who do artsy web-development stuff. The Constructor it is called. Check it out, waste some time.
St. Patty’s Day Pictures
Hey! The new Saint Patrick’s Day Pictures are up! There is about ninety in all. I think they turned out well. Don’t for get to leave copious and hilarious comments!
