heh heh. The Google.

I dunno if you're familiar with "The Google," but if you're not, take a look at this YouTube clip, which is 20 seconds long. Just suck it up. I can't help laughing, and I actually don't hate Bush in that moment...I just find him amusing. Well, at least until I realize that we've made him the most powerful human being on earth. Hm.



And, just to add to that, if you haven't yet learned that John McCain doesn't know how to use the computer, here's a clip of that admission. (He also notes that his favorite movie is !Viva Zapata! (1952)).



And the real point? The Onion:

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA—The popular search engine Google announced plans Friday to launch a new site, TheGoogle.com, to appeal to older adults not able to navigate the original website's single text field and two clearly marked buttons.

"The Google will have all the same information currently found on regular Google, but with the added features of not stealing your credit-card numbers or giving your computer all kinds of viruses," said Rick Tillich, The Google project director. "All you have to do to turn the website on is put the little blinking line thing in the cyberspace window at the top of the screen, type 'thegoogle.com,' and press 'return'—although it will also recognize http.wwwthegoogle.com, google.aol, and 'THEGOOGLE' typed into a Word document."

Tillich added that he hopes the site will soon replace Yahoo Internet Website.com as the most popular search engine for users over 55.
No, Fuck YOU! I AM studying.

it is 2:30 a.m. central time. i am almost drunk enough to fall asleep (the vodka is counteracting the bar exam coffee).

All I want is for rsac to respond to this article:

and no jay. no, I'll not take your bet. at first i thought,"of course bush will not commute marion's sentence." she used drugs. plus, she's black. but after evaluating your rationale for the bet, I must agree. I can't risk $20 on a coin flip.

Dude, thanks for posting that. I've been trying to find a way to express to express that idea for a very long time, but I'm too stupid to articulate it.

You posted that for RS, but I agree with the article 100% and would only add that many current conservative free marketers are those who have drunk the Kool-Aid and are unwittingly selling on someone else's behalf. That is, I think he pinpointed the SOURCE of all of these ideas and how these ideas are perceived and originated in the halls of power...while those clamoring for it on lower levels have no idea that this is what's really going on.

Why, I use The Google basically every day. I also enjoy Gizoogle on my more gangsta days ... I recommend you check it out when you need a study break.

I just listened to your Reading Rainbow cover again. It makes me giggle.
