Bought the rotisserie at Home Depot last night.  It's made for some other brand of grill, but with a few modifications to mine, thanks to my Dremel, I will have amazing BBQ chicken tonight!

Edit: Two hours later, with some sauteed asparagus.  Note the chicken falling apart!

While occasionally looking for a new tattoo shop, I noticed a new place open on Military Road (a mile from my house). So, I thought I'd check it out.  It's called Davie Mac's Tattoo, and it's the cleanest shop I've ever seen.  Both artists have some great work on display, so I felt comfortable getting my next tattoo there. Mike umm...I forget his last name, is the artist working on me.  The three of us had a great conversation about gaming, tattoos, and military stuff.  Good times.

If you've ever played Gears of War, you'll instantly recognize this:



For those of you that don't get it, it's an assault rifle with a chainsaw bayonet.

Here's the result of session one (pardon my shitty webcam):



Next session is in two weeks, followed by a third session two weeks after that.

I think the collective IQ of humanity just dipped a few points...

I'm sick of this.

I can't stand hearing the theories. The grand, "vast right-wing conspiracy" theories about 9/11.

I am sick of the paranoid fantasies: the people that make them up, and the people that believe them.

THERE WERE NO MISSILES LAUNCHED. There are hundreds of witnesses.

There were no "timed explosions."

President Bush didn't "know it would happen" and let it happen anyway.

There was no airplane swap over PA.

I am sick of Michael Moore. Especially when he talks of 9/11.

I am sick of hearing "have you seen that video on Google?" I have seen the video, and it is a farce. I can take a clown at a circus more seriously than that video.

I am sick of hearing "where are the parts form the airplane?" THERE ARE PICTURES ALL OVER THE INTERNET. Secondly, if a plane didn't hit each tower, the pentagon, and a field in PA, then WHERE are all the passengers and crew? Where are those specific aircraft?

You people make me fucking sick. Stop making up conspiracy theories, drama, etc. Accept things as they are. Try fixing problems instead of making up new and untrue ones.

Every year, it seams more and more ranks of idiots emerge. You are a disgrace to this nation and humanity as a whole.

A little less of this:


would help out a lot.

Feel free to ignore if you're not Mike or Molly.

CARROLL, N.Y. — A fugitive suspected of fatally shooting a New York state trooper and wounding two others while on the run for more than five months surrendered to police who had cornered him in a field just over the Pennsylvania border Friday night.

Click the picture for the story.

And then, for who-knows-why, my friends' page decided to change completely. Nice. Fucking shit software.

...on the jury.

"Convicted Al Qaeda conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui was sentenced to life in prison without possibility of parole on Wednesday for his role in the Sept. 11 attacks." - Fox News

Come on. They're going to let this fucker sit in prison for the rest of his life?



" "America, you lost. I won," Moussaoui said, clapping his hands as he was led out of the court room after the verdict was read. "

This jury makes no sense to me. One of the lawyers on Fox News (Greta maybe?) read some excerpts from the jury sentence form, which in it's entirety is about 40 pages long.

The jury believed that he would fly a plan into the white house.
They believed he was sane.
They beleived he would not be viewed as a martyr if he received the death penalty.

And they STILL didn't vote to fry his ass?

"But Rich, we shouldn't be like them. We should act civilized and blah blah blah."

Civilization will be the death of us.

...is a fucking tragedy. I just sat through the video for "Saying Sorry." I'm so pissed I don't even know where to begin.

I first heard of this "band" while reading an article on somethingawful.com. I didn't believe it at first; I thought to myself, "How could a group of people possibly suck this much cock? It's impossible."

But alas, I was wrong. People CAN suck this much cock.

As some of you may know, I haven't had cable TV since I moved out of my previous apartment. Ergo, no MTV. I tell ya, not having SCIFI, Fox News, History, and PPV UFC is almost worth not being exposed to this writhing mass of genderless bullshit while channel surfing. I think if I get cable in the next place, I may just block MTV from my television.

I don't get it. What makes a bunch of cry-baby pansy mother fuckers appealing? WHAT IS IT?

Molly just told me that the band sells belts with their name on it. Belts. I think I just threw up even more.

Their recuring logo is a little girl in a wedding-type dress with flowers. WHY?!?! And, get this....if you take two of their albums, open up the booklets, and put them side-by-side, they make a picture and "tell a story." The only story I want to hear about these guys is the band breaking up and all of the members being hit by a train or larger means of transportation.



I don't blame her. I'd want to gouge out my eyes after watching it too.

Associated Press.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — A University of North Carolina graduate from Iran, accused of running down nine people on campus to avenge the treatment of Muslims, said at a hearing Monday that he was "thankful for the opportunity to spread the will of Allah."



Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar was accused of driving a sport utility vehicle through The Pit, a popular campus gathering spot, injuring nine people Friday. None of the victims was seriously hurt.

Police Chief Derek Poarch said Taheri-azar told investigators he intentionally hit people to "avenge the deaths of Muslims around the world."

Taheri-azar, 22, appeared in Orange County District Court in nearby Hillsborough on nine counts of attempted murder and nine counts of assault.

His bail was set at $5.5 million, and he was assigned a public defender, but he said after the hearing: "The truth is my lawyer."

Taheri-azar graduated from North Carolina in December after studying psychology and philosophy. Investigators believe he has spent most of his life in the United States.

On campus, UNC students held what they called an "anti-terrorism" rally.

"We don't want terrorism here, and we're not gonna stand for that where we live and where we go to school," said Kris Wampler, a student at UNC and member of the College Republicans, which helped organize the rally.

About 50 students attended the rally, including several Muslim students who debated with organizers and said Taheri-azar had not been linked to any terrorist group.

"When you think in terms of a global context, this was an isolated incident," said Khurram Bilal Tariq, a 22-year-old junior.

Stephen Mann, an 18-year-old freshman, said he wasn't singling out Islam with his call to label Friday's incident terrorism. He said a member of any religion who did what Taheri-azar is accused of doing should be called a terrorist.

"If you try to hurt someone in the name of a cause, that's terrorism," he said.


(One of the students hit by the SUV being taken to the hospital)

----------------------------------------------------------------

These other muslim students are complete idiots. Why do they choose not to comdemn the acts of Taheri-azar, and instead defend him? Because they're sympathetic assholes, that's why.

I don't think anyone gets this besides Mike, Molly, and I, so, just skip it if you like.

( My first Turban Duck attempt. Well, actually second. I drew the first ever Duck. )

Not that this describes my job; I just think it's funny.

And I scored a 100% on my C++ project. Bam, bitches.

I'll try to keep this short and to the point.

STOP TALKING ABOUT THE VICE PRESIDENT'S HUNTING MISHAP.

Christ, the guy feels bad enough about it. He knows what happened, whoever was there knows what happened, and the aquaintance that was shot knows what happened too.

No one besides the parties involved need to know about this. What happened is of course unfortunate, but, really folks....this doesn't affect anyone else in any way possible. Leave these people alone. They have more important matters to tend to than to answer at stupid press conferences and give interviews.

From Fox News, House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi:

"They don't come clean with American people. They think they are above the law and above accountability to the American people. They can grant or withhold information," the California lawmaker said Thursday. "Whether as it is in this case with this unfortunate shooting or whether it's giving information about [Jack] Abramoff and his connections to the White House or whether it's about Katrina and who knew what when and what could have been done to save lives in the time of Katrina."

Wow. What a fucking moron. Way to try to further your partisan agenda, bitch.

Dammit, the news is talking about this shit AGAIN. STOP already.

Read this and try to hold back the vomit caused by this heinous bitch. http://theeraosl.blogspot.com/2006/02/shooter-slips-on-silencer.html

Oh well, so much for short...

I'm sure most of you have heard of the riots in the Middle East regarding the Danish Mahammad [sic] cartoons, but not many people have actually seen the cartoons. I got this from wikipedia.

I know you can't read the text due to the size, but, it's in Danish (or whatever language they speak there) so you wouldn't be able to understand it anyway.

Maybe it's just me, but, this doesn't seem like "burn-down-embassy" material to me.

So I'm waiting in F building lobby for my class to start. I'm trying to study some C++ for my quiz an hour later. I already know what I'm doing, but, a little more review never hurts.

Here are some things I overheard from the clowns wasting there time there:

"Communism is too a good form of government."

"I can't believe Rent got chosen as worst movie of 2005. I'm apalled (in loser-fake-theatre voice.)

"The US military has no idea what it's doing in Iraq."

"Bush sucks."

"I can't wait till this day is over so I can go home and smoke a HUGE bowl."

And you people wonder why I hate school...

I am the man.


That is all. You can go about your business now.
