May none of you receive an AOL cd this Christmas...

I have had three posts thwarted by AOL in the last week, so I am giving up until I return to NY. Until then, happy holidays and think of me next time you visit some website that is a complete waste of time.

All the good I have worked for in this world is for nought.... when I left my mother's house last, she had a fullly functional broadband cable connection. I return to find that she now has AOL dial up. I have descended into internet hell.

Another nifty Christmas idea: give someone an ebola virus necktie:

Customize your Mazda Miata with teeth.

Martial arts meets physiology - nifty clips from the Discovery Channel.

From the state that brought you the savage death of Matthew Shepherd, Wyoming now gives you Columbine Paintball!

I'm posting this on Nick's behalf: The definitive guide to General Tso's chicken.

BTW - finals are over, I'll be in Colorado by Monday, and I have a backlog of crap to post for your enjoyment.

It takes something special to actually make my jaw drop in sheer horror and amazement. This ad for camel-toe enhancement pretty much does the trick.

Don't know what to get your favorite chess-player for Christmas? Enroll him in a chess-boxing tournament!

More fun with Google. Search for "miserable failure" and hit "I'm feeling lucky."

Most of the time, I find Norm MacDonald pretty lame, but his interview with the latest reality TV trash is priceless:

Norm: 'Isn't Lionel Richie a black guy?'
Paris: 'She's black!'
Nicole: 'I am black!'
Norm: 'You're black?'
....
Norm: 'Did you get in any trouble because you're black?'
Nicole: 'No! You're so rude.'
Norm: 'I thought hillbillies didn't care for black people.'
Nicole: 'They love me.'
Paris: 'They love her.'
Norm: 'Because you're not black!'
Nicole: 'Yes, I am black.'

Kim Jong Il's LiveJournal - hysterical. Credit to Nick for the find.
