Well, i’ve never been to Ryan’s Steakhouse, and frankly i don’t think i want to go. This is quite frankly one of the most disgusting and yet funny things i have seen on the web. I had to stop reading because i thought i was going to hyperventilate laughing. Oy! Read it here.

Wow! I didn’t know about the Freedom of Information Act’s Electronic Reading Room until now. These are the files the FBI created on various public figures back in the day. Read Einstein’s file, Picasso’s, etc. Keen! It’s all here.

Well, on one hand, I half expected Bradley to drop out. Having not won a single primary, but what happened to McCain? I think he still has a strong backing (albeit it isn’t ENTIRELY Republican). McCain’s strategy doesn’t work too well with the idea of capturing the GOP nod, sure, but I think he still has a very good chance. And frankly, i’m moving to Canada if George W. wins the presidency. What do you think?

Edgar Allen Poe, great American writer, and just plain weird guy had quite an interest in cryptography, in fact he may have written a final message in the form of a cryptograph sent to him by a ‘reader’ by the name of W.B. Tyler (a supposed nom de plume of his). Well, point being, there is a $2500 award for figuring out the crytpograph. The article be here.

I don’t know what it is about all these cat videos, whether it is Cat Herding, Cats Flying, Cats Grooving. Well, this is Cats Flinging Themselves Headlong Into Paralysis, I guess. View it here.

From the Weird News Headline Archive! Well, this is just plain wrong. Seems that a South Korean bar has opened, with and interesting theme. What theme you ask? THE THIRD REICH. No Beer For You! Oh, and I wouldn’t suggest using the bathroom. View the story here

CNN is running a story about a little
plastic keychain attached device that
will allow gays to covertly find one
another (within 50 ft). Also, gay
bashers will be able to pinpoint their
attacks. (But i’m sure that isn’t the intended usage). The story is here here. It’s in RealVideo, too. Neato.

Apparently, AOL sent (actually, parachuted) one of their directors into a Columbian Rebel held town, where he and the FARC leader swapped baseball caps. It’s all very weird, and it’s all right here.
