New and Interesting Weirdness


Hello Everybodyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

First and formost, I've really gotta get into rehab for my Super Grover addiction. ;)

To quote a famous dog about the above statement: "I kid! I kid!"

Now for the real reason for my post today. I've found some neat goodies on the 'Net for anyone out there reading this.

First, there's Zoho writer (http://www.zohowriter.com/login.sas). It's a word processing application (a-la Microsoft Word) on the Internet. A handly little thing to know about, especially of your traveling without a laptop.

Second, have you ever wondered what Yahoo or Google looked like when they first came out? Well then try the Internet Archives (http://www.archive.org/index.php). It has everything from the Internet Wayback Machine (where you can look up what webpages looked like way back when), through live music archives & text archives, to a movie archive. It's fun stuff. :)

Third, it's The Memory Hole (http://www.thememoryhole.org/). This organziation preserves a good amount our government's bad behavior, along with stuff that disappers from mainstream and governmental websites.

Have fun with the small chuck of goodness.

Hey-ho!

Hi all, I'm oficially back from vacation.

Not much to report, besides that I'm now on MySpace.

You can find me here:

http://www.myspace.com/hookahworm

This is my primary blog-space, but MySpace is my emergency back-up (Just in case, ya know...).

I've managed one or two nice scores on MySpace friends wise. One is Morgan Webb. Yep, we're talking the exceedingly cute hostess of X-Play. Another is Marky Ramone, the drummer for the punk legends The Ramones.

Well, gotta run 4 now.

More on crackpots and those that actually have a brain...


Hi Everyone,

Just doing a quick update from my vacation spot.

I just to mention a great website: http://rensewatch.blogspot.com/.

Mr. Paul Kimball, the blogs owner, is doing a great job of keeping track of the nutjob conspiracy thoerist and anti-semitic idiot named Jeff Rense (found @ http://www.rense.com/).

After having read Rense's wesite for a while, I realised that the guy was just full of it. Fortunatly, I found Rensewatch and, after some reading, became a fan.

Just wanted to give everyone the word on Mr. Kimballs execelent work.

Muchos kudos, Mr. Kimball!

Ghost in the shell

Hey-ho! Lets go!

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up on a few things before I go on vacation for a week.

First, I've stubled across a great documentary about the Ramones. It's called End of the Century. It's really well done and actually has the blessing and involvement of the Ramones themselves. Trust me, it's great stuff. :)

Second, I've got a great website find. It's http://www.gethuman.com/. This website is a database of all the different methods of getting to a real live human on those annoying automated help lines that every company seems to have now. Again, great stuff.

Third, just wanted to give some friends of mine a plug. Grant & Debbi Hoover have been truly wonderful friends over the years and I just wanted to be sure that they got as many kudos as I could give them. They are truly an amazing as a couple and as individuals. I'm truly lucky to know them. :)

I wish I could go on, but I've probably embarassed them enough.

Plus I have to go, I have to head off desk.

Either way, Grease for Peace!
