I’m terrified of heights, and thought there was no way in hell I would actually enjoy this. Turns out I loved every second of it and will absolutely be jumping out of another plane in the near future. Las Vegas is definitely the place to jump if you’re debating it. You get a full 60 second freefall at 120mph and you can see Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, the Colorado River, The Strip, Valley of Fire, Redrock Canyon, Mt. Charleston, and Four States. It really is quite the experience.
it never got weird enough.
The following is a sordid story of alcoholism, mental health problems, Five Points, a trip to the drunk tank, violence, synthesizer based music, a hippie concert venue, madness, dreadlocks, pain and wonder.
I have long suspected that black cops don’t like the word “nigger” being used by a white person, but that was just a theory. Now it’s been tested empirically by rowtow.com associate, Alex.

I don’t even know what to say about this one…. Seeking a dominant female.
Hi my name is Bryan and I am a 25 year old who attended UNLV in Las Vegas. Since I have graduated, I have nothing to do for a few months so I decided to come home for the summer. I am in Chicago at least all summer, maybe longer and am looking for a dominant female who would be interested in giving me rules, punishing me, disciplining me, and bossing me around.

What’s the point of having 20 wives if they all look fugly and dress like it’s 1870?

Wholesome fun was had at Casa Bonita and the bowling alley this weekend.
Peep the entire photo set here:
This one comes yet again from myspace, which seems to be a source of endless amusement for me to laugh at people. Though this one can actually type & spell. He’s just a good 15 years older and sooo not my type. (I blanked out parts of the email & phone number because I’m not feeling all the vindictive against him.)

If you read reddit or digg, you probably don’t like the Church of Scientology very much. You probably don’t pay to see Tom Cruise movies because you don’t want your money going to fund such an organization.
But did you know that if you’ve bought a copy of Windows 2000, XP or Vista, or bought an OEM PC with one of those OSs pre-installed, you’ve indirectly funded the CoS?
The reason why is that Microsoft packages a third party created disk defrag tool called Diskeeper with those versions of Windows. Diskeeper is made by a company called the Diskeeper Corporation, formerly Executive Software International, inc., whose CEO, Craig Jensen, is a member of the CoS. According to the wikipedia entry for Diskeeper Corporation:
The corporation’s CEO, Craig Jensen, is a member of the Church of Scientology and has stated that his employees are schooled in the principles of Scientology’s founder, L. Ron Hubbard.[2], saying “I attribute [our] success directly to the management technology developed by L. Ron Hubbard. Simply put, I couldn’t have done it without his help.” [2] In 1991, Executive Software denied Ciba-Geigy technical support for the VAX version of Diskeeper after learning that Ciba-Geigy makes Ritalin, a drug opposed by scientologists.
Because this connection to the Church of Scientology, the German government’s Federal Office of Security in Information Technology refused to certify those versions of Windows for use on government computers in Germany (the Germans have a long standing antagonist relationship with the CoS, see this wikipedia article for more info).
According to this Wired article, Microsoft had to turn over the source code to its operating system so that it could be audited by the German government to check for “backdoors” placed by the CoS. Eventually, the dispute was settled by Microsoft offering a patcher to remove Diskeeper software from Windows for all German customers.
So what can I do about this, you may be asking right now. There’s really only two solutions:
1, Buy a fucking Mac. Apple doesn’t include Diskeeper with OS X.
2a, Build an PC yourself and Install Linux, Problem Solved (or pirate XP, but SHHHHHHH, you didn’t hear that from me).
2b, Buy an OEM PC from a manufacturer who’ll sell you one with a Free OS installed on it, such as Linux or FreeDOS. (Dell does this on some models)
Any other tips, please leave in the comments.

Yeah, I’m just kind of speechless about this video, so just watch it. I’m going to go wander around in traffic now.
Happy Athiests Get Presents Too Day, here’s a holiday story that warmed my heart: The Junky’s Christmas by William S. Burroughs.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6338897291672494696For you fools who crave the text version, here it is, from the short story collection Interzone, shamelessly copypasta’d from here: http://bogwebs.systime.dk/fagbank/engelsk/beatgen/junkxmas.htm
I just reformatted it to be fucking readable, e.g. NOT red text on green.
The Junky’s Christmas
By William S. Burroughs.
T’was Christmas Day and Danny the Car Wiper hit the street junksick and broke after seventy-two hours in the precinct jail. It was a clear bright day, but there was no warmth in the sun. Danny shivered with an inner cold. He turned up the collar of his worn, greasy black overcoat.

Oh man…gotta kick back with a cold beer and get a load of this.
(Maximize new window for best viewing)
HAHAHA. Jesus Christ, these workplace safety videos were fucking ricockulous. I’ve seen a lot of gory shit and some of these still made me wince. I’ve also worked a lot of menial jobs in my life (grocery stores, food service, construction, etc) and if they’d shown me videos like this, I’d definitely have paid more attention.
