In case I post no more today, Happy New Year everyone! Remember to live for a reason.

StudioTimo has some tasty Flash happening. Check out the Portfolio mouseover popup timeline. I wish I had thought of that.

How cool is Fly Guy?!?

Pirated-Sites has got its eye on you.

This computer almost wouldn't let me type this post?! It must be evil, as is human cloning.

Wow. 9/13/1996. How many of you remember that the clanberries were formed that long ago? I mean, that's forever, huh? TCP/IP wasn't part of the Internet until 1993. DNS in '94.

Later in the year, you could even download a browser. Mosaic Netscape 0.9 beta was available in October and people started "surfing" for the first time. Only a short hop, skip and jump away the Qtest was released in February of 1996. CTF followed in October and only days later the clanberries became one of the first Quake clans. All this and more can be found in this Quake timeline. We're part of the History of Quake!

Not everyone can claim that. Merry Christmas everyone!

Injustice infuriates me. The Monahans treatment in the Portland airport will infuriate you too. I think the videotape should have been automatically saved when any dispute takes place. Make sense?

Christmas is right around the corner, but if any of you still need to buy a gift for that hard-to-buy-for person on your list, maybe they'd appreciate the DriveRight Carchip?

If you ever wonder where the really weird stuff is, just go to eBay.

Bulldog crashes Maserati. And yes, he wasn't carrying his license either.

From the land of the obvious comes: Schoolbooks filled with errors and political correctness are screwing up our kids.

In case you haven't seen it yet, The Two Towers was a wonderful movie. I can't believe we have to wait a whole year for the final episode! At least we can see Matrix Reloaded in March. Here's a little article on the (2) upcoming Matrix movies.

Ever wondered how much caffeine is in various products? How about the makeup of a caffeine molecule? If not, surely you care about the fact that caffeine is completely illegal in Thailand. Last, but definitely not least, caffeine and your metabolism.

Now that Iraq has been able to "hide" all the "good" stuff, they now say that they're ready to answer our questions.

I just watched part of, on MTV, Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" video. I'd just like to direct this note to her. Christina, there is nobody on that video that is beautiful. Everyone shown on that video ranges from just ugly, to downright hideous. Then, while I'm looking at this crap waiting to see if there is anyone that is remotely attractive, these two fags start kissing and I almost puked. Christina, you are an ugly idiot who has no voice, please stop now, please.
Please.

In the tradition of "it's December and we have to look back on the year and post articles" I present, Canada's Dumb Crimes of 2002.

What was the bigger mistake, making counterfeits with their computer/scanner or trying to use them at the school cafeteria? I mean, it's mystery meat after all. Geezz.

Mocha P4 is a cool little PC. No OS... but who needs one of those?

Is a free, digital TV from the government in your future?

Christmas fun!

Fast Company thinks now is the perfect time to launch an Internet startup! Look at all those ad banners from tech companys who want people to launch startups. *giggle*

Important News! Pepsi chooses Britney over Beyoncé in a blind taste test.

Cincinnati councilmen has novel idea—give unused Bengals tickets to city's poor children. I don't know if that's a gift or a sentence.

I've got a novel idea. All those people who hate America, leave. Wouldn't that please everyone involved? But no. Instead, these troublemakers would rather stir up others towards hatred.

Those crazy Catholics. Being declared a saint by the church authority structure is probably the last thing Mother Teresa would have cared about. She cared about helping people not titles. So in my book, that makes here a saint.

How many people know that back when Strom Thurmond and Trent Lott supported segregation, they were Democrats?

LMDC posted 7 World Trade Center concepts. You might want to wait 'til later in the week as their servers are floundering.

Update: Ok. I spent the last hour reloading screens to grab these shots. See what you think. (Names are mine.)
Concept by Firm A | "Diamond Twins" / Nice and tall bu far too fragile. Tells the world, "Can some terrorist come knock us over?"
Concept by Firm B | "Prestige & Grass" / Stately and reserved. Firm must be a bunch of scardy cats. My least favorite. Says, "We're stuck in the 1800s."
Concept by Firm C | "Topsy Turvy" / Big and bulky conglomeration of steel and glass. Says, "We prefer drunk buildings."
Concept by Firm D | "Shards!" / Lots of non-traditional angles and sharp points. Tells the world, "Look out! Or we'll cut ya!"
Concept by Firm E | "Dual Vacuum Hoses" / Futuristic design. Doesn't look like much room for people. Says, "Our tower is bigger than your tower. Nya nya nah nya nya."
Concept by Firm F | "Cloud City II" / Similar to Topsy Turvy but much slicker. Looks quite sturdy. Says, "Try to knoch THIS down!"
Concept by Firm G | "Tic Tac Toe" / Oh so geometrical and solid as a steel brick. Tells the world, "A giant helped us build this thing."

Malaysia bans Brad Pitt ad. Promotion could be seen as "humiliating to Asian looks."

A Baldwin (doesn't matter which) wants the 9/11 Memorial to be a new Yankees baseball stadium. Nothing really comforts a hurting soul like $7 beers and polish brats. This should verify the obvious fact that these guys are clueless. I thought they had promised to leave the country? At least Pierre kept his promise.

Pot, not just for kids anymore. (See also Dec. 6) Authorities bust a Knoxville nursing home.

First the Japanese, now the Chinese are stung by that karaoke bug. Taking the addiction a step further, they want it in their cars!

I'm guessing 24-year-old Dimbeswar Basumatary doesn't have a full time job. How many people do you know who can sit around and stare directly at the sun for hours?

Has the world really changed that much? The world's oldest profession is still going strong. Apparently, politicians are their strongest consumer segment.

Those devious waitresses. Always trying to get an extra buck or two.

I know I posted this before, but looking at the tallest structures on Earth is just plain cool. Sodaplay is cool too.

When art-geeks get together, they play games like P'Shop Tennis. Layer 7 of Champ vs. Powazek is creative genius!

135,400 lights by a guy spreading the Christmas love and the blimey Courier-Journal (*cough* *Communists* *cough) can't snap a pic?!?

So, what do you think the wheelchair speed limit should be?

Utah, last in beer consuption, says "Time to raise those taxes!"

Woman gets caught while driving under the influence of Maybelline.

You know things in America are getting bad when Planned Parenthood decides to pay high school kids to bring in customers—customers who have abortions get those kids a cash reward. This is all being done with your tax dollars and the buy-in of the NEA. Here's the application. Sick.

Remember Minority Report with Tom Cruise? They had those futuristic billboards. Well now Thinking Pictures is the company that's actually doing it.

Better not mess with Norway or they'll pull a 900 Tail Wag to Late Nosebleed on you.

Even monkeys understand that boys don't play with Barbies. How this supports the theory of evolution, I'll never know.

Nowadays, they'll do anything to work naked women into everyday activities. Remember Seinfeld though, there's good naked and bad naked.

So there is a positive use for banner ads?

Honda holds onto top spot in the Cool Car Company rankings with Asimo—the hippest robot this side of Star Wars.

Beer vs. gun. The best part is the quote from the Kwik Stop clerk after seeing his attacker in the hospital.

I'm all about killing bills but what kind of society do we live in where a St. Louis alderwoman calls for sheets and curtains so she can relieve herself during the political debate, rather than excuse herself and use a restroom like the distinguished politician she so obviously must be?

For all you ballers out there, can anyone tell me how a team scores 110 points and still loses by 52?

Far be it from me to question anyone's preferences in music, but we're talking about Eminem here. What he "does" doesn't qualify as music... and now Detroit is using his music to promote their city?!?

This "colour" test is just plain painful. Ouchie!

"I justa needa know where to, uh, make a change." [click the Date Sauce]

Yeah, i'll buy one of these in the year 2029, when they're affordable!

Nobody knows how to surrender like the French.

This guy on ZDNet wrote about all of his favorite gadgets. At least he gets to test the stuff.

I don't know what's wrong with calling it the "at symbol" but France apparently had a problem with it. So they named it.

Lookout Mall of America here comes Destiny USA.

Bake sales in 2002 now include Snap! Crackle! Pot!

For big laughs, read the reviews of Looking For-Best of David Hasselhoff, a CD sure to be on everyone's Christmas list this year.

Remember my post about the Whopper going out of business? Well, it's not due to a lack of resourcefulness.

If you've been doubtful in the past, no more. The end of the world is at hand.

Star Dudes is a Flash movie of Episode IV condensed to under 5 minutes. Enjoy!

When is a pit bull, not a pit bull? When it's a chihuahua.

You've heard about spammers getting blacklisted, what about whitelisting the good guys instead?

Now, what are they feeding this kid? better yet, how many takes did they need to capture this amazing event on video?

Sure would hate to meet this woman in a dark ally. Leggo my bingo!

I know everyone has been killing brain cells trying to come up with that perfect Christmas gift for ole Boyso. Never fear! I've found it at long last.

Is this the end of the Whopper?

And we thought Roo has issues with rage. This lady took a hammer to 18 luxury cars!

Repeat this poor girls name, three times slowly. I know, I know, This is so immature.

Richard Gere is just plain confused, because he's not a giraffe.

People in Wisconsin have a urnination problem.

I tried this once. The judge still made me testify.

I would be a very bad berry (however, not Badberry) if I didn't tell everyone about the dangers of aspartame. And now it looks like scuralose is supabad too. Do your own research but the summary is stick with sugar.

For you history buffs out there, Stanford has posted some movies of the first mouse demos that took place in 1968.

Ever the helpful gent, I post a link to some old advertising slogans. "At the clanberries, we post no link before its time."

It didn't even occur to me that Nissan would be the one to buy www.Z.com.

So, are you sending too much non-essential email? I would hope so. ;^)
