Somehow, Stephen Colbert was invited to be the headlining guest speaker at the Washington Press Corp Dinner, which Bush also attended. Listen to Colbert rip into the Bush Administration and the so-called "Liberal Media". It's painful to watch, but that's Colbert's style, and I love it. Perhaps even more interesting is the fact that the President got himself tore a new asshole on live TV, and no major news media outlet even bothered reported it.
I can't post this to blogger for some reason... |

| CATEGORY | ACRES |
| FOOD | 4.9 |
| MOBILITY | 0.7 |
| SHELTER | 5.2 |
| GOODS/SERVICES | 5.4 |
| TOTAL FOOTPRINT | 16 |
| IN COMPARISON, THE AVERAGE ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT IN YOUR COUNTRY IS 24 ACRES PER PERSON. |
| WORLDWIDE, THERE EXIST 4.5 BIOLOGICALLY PRODUCTIVE ACRES PER PERSON. |
| IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 3.7 PLANETS. |
* Footprint results are expressed in global acres (or global hectares in metric measurement). Each of those acres (hectares) corresponds to one acre (hectare) of biologically productive space with world-average productivity. Today, the biosphere has 26.7 billion acres (or 10.8 billion hectares) of biologically productive space corresponding to less than one-quarter of the planet's surface. These 26.7 billion acres (10.8 billion hectares) include 5.7 billion acres (2.3 billion hectares) of productive ocean and 21 billion acres (8.5 billion hectares) of productive land.music: U2 - The Fly (Lounge Club Mix) |

Your brain: 40% interpersonal, 60% visual, 100% verbal, and 200% mathematical!
| Congratulations on being 400% smart! Actually, on my test, everyone is. The above score breaks down what kind of thinking you most enjoy
doing. A score above 100% means you use that kind of thinking more than
average, and a score below 100% means you use it less. It says nothing
about how good you are at any one, just how interested you are in each, relatively. A substantial difference in scores between two people means, conclusively, that they are different kinds of thinkers.
Matching Summary: Each of us has different tastes. Still, I offer the following advice, which I think is obvious:
- Don't date someone if your interpersonal percentages differ by more than 80%.
- Don't be friends with someone if your verbal percentages differ by more than 100%.
- Don't have sex with someone if their math percentage is over 200%.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: | You scored higher than 35% on interpersonal | | You scored higher than 34% on visual | | You scored higher than 73% on verbal | | You scored higher than 88% on mathematical |

I tried sending and receiving these different types of files with each service because GMail is pissing me off by blocking certain attachments for no good reason:
| Email Attachments Comparison |
| Google | Yahoo! | Hotmail |
| Storage Size | 1000MB+ | 1000MB | 250MB |
| Virus Scan | none | BOTH | Incoming? |
| Send EXE | no | YES | YES |
| Receive EXE | no | YES | no |
| Send ZIP | YES | YES | YES |
| Receive ZIP | YES | YES | YES |
| Send RAR | no | YES | YES |

| Send EXE in ZIP | no | YES | YES |
| Receive EXE in ZIP | no | YES | YES |
| Send EXE in RAR | YES | YES | YES |
| Receive EXE in RAR | no | YES | YES |
| Renamed files | YES | YES | YES |
Hotmail was consistently the fastest with delivery and reception. Yahoo was generally the slowest. Probably because:
Yahoo scans both incoming and outgoing messages for viruses. Hotmail only scanned incoming (I think). GMail scanned neither.

The group resisted distributing its material through digital music providers before, according to Chartsingles.net, and they have experienced losses and frustrations with albums (such as Hail to the Thief) when tracks hit the internet before they hit record stores.
Dear Radiohead:
Just an observation. I bought your freaking album AFTER downloading it. Ummmm... Could your 'poor sales' of Hail to the Thief possibly be because it sucked ass?
Sincerely,
radiohead fan

Muscle relaxers seem to have stopped the last attack. Meaning:
A. The problem is most likely stress related.
B. I need to find a good doctor.
What the fuck do I have to be stressed about?
P.S. Cat Stevens (the rock version) & Saul Williams Rule... I'm pretty sure I made a fool of myself but who cares. I'm not in the hospital this time.
Alert: I've taken two "darvocet" and apparently drank almost 2 six packs... So I apologise in advance for the truth.

Dogs bite or attack some 4.5 million people each year, and kill about 20, health officials say.
Pit bulls and Rottweilers ... were connected to 50.4 percent of human fatalities from dog attacks.
The odds that a bite victim will be a child are 3.2 to 1. (CDC.)
77% of injuries to children under 10 years old are facial.
Dog bites result in approximately 44,000 facial injuries in US hospitals each year.
The majority of dog attacks (61%) happen at home or in a familiar place.
The vast majority of biting dogs (77%) belong to the victim's family or a friend.
Twenty-six percent of dog bites in children compared with 12 percent in adults require medical care.

The secretary at my workplace is an older woman, who really doesn't understand the subtleties of the Internet and Email. Even after changing her email address for her, she still managed to let her email address out and is on every spam list known to man. I get a copy of every undeliverable mail at our domain, and I've been giggling at her attempts to get off these spam lists. Watch as she becomes increasingly agitated at the volume and quality of spam she receives. The lines in bold are her comments, and a portion of the email she is trying to unsubscribe from immediately follows:
