OH MY GOD!!!
I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE!!!
THE EASY WINNER!!!



I can't believe you people let this post linger for 24 hours without smacking me down for forgetting Joel Hodgson -- the greatest prop comic of all-time. And I thought you people had my back.

Thank you, whoever you are

On a long Monday of prepping images for a Tucker Rocky online catalog, it doesn't take much to delight me. I tip my hat to the writer of this headline. And, for that matter, I tip my stem nut covers (which are indeed bad ass).

I love vintage computing

And you should too! Call me "old fangled" but this guy's tie is HOT and her knees are HOTTER! What's on the tape she's holding? What's he looking for? Where can I get one of those Sperry-Univac Model 345s in the background? Is his 5 & 1/4" disk still floppy? I do have a printable 8.5x11 pdf of this so email me if you want one.Here's another un-baci'd from the same source

Allen Richardson Declared Frontrunner

Even before Duluth has formally seceded, Allen Richardson’s dark horse candidacy has surged into the lead, according to recent unscientific poll numbers.

"The secessionists have Weapons of Mass Affection. Well drop a love bomb on me, sugar. Now that secession fever has gripped Duluth, I’m looking forward to embracing my sovereignty. Maybe that way we can get a few minutes peace and quiet before the inevitable implosion of the empire to the south, the United States of … whatever it was. That’s why I’m voting Allen Richardson of the No Weirdos Party for President of the Free Republic of Duluth."
-Wilhelmena Wilhelmenason, 62

The candidate issued a statement.

"To the edge of the cliff - and beyond! We are the party to take you there. Unstable times demand unstable leadership. My candidacy is prepared to offer you, the free citizens of the Free Republic of Duluth, a non-stop barrage of contradiction and cognitive dissonance, including trials, a space program, coups and counter coups, Hillside named capitol of Duluth, and the secession of the Hillside from Duluth. Now printing currency. The barbarians are at the gate, the psychedelic submarine must submerge. All aboard! Down Periscope! Cocktails all around! Fire torpedos! Dive! Dive! Dive!" - Allen Richardson, No Weirdos Party candidate for President of Free Republic of Duluth

Put the dent back in President – Allen Richardson for Duluth President.

quick question

A question from an out-of-state exile:

Is the holiday-season themed Menards commercial on yet? You know the one, with the Menards Singers howling "warm seasons greetings to you all from Menards!" in a cheerful, yet strangely haunting manner?

I miss that commercial. I miss Menards commercials in general. The best commercial we have around here is for an establishment known as The Donut Hole, which has commericals featuring stop-animation donuts singing little diddies about frosting and road construction. (There's always a lot of road construction going on around here.) Not bad, but not as good as they sound, either.

Something Pleasant!!

Here's something pleasant to help get everyone's minds off the elections for a couple of seconds. This comes from the March 1, 1910 edition of the Duluth News Tribune (I think--it's been a while since I came across it). Sounds like a fun time.

Has anyone heard anything (good or bad) about True Colors Tattoo (the Duluth or Superior shop)?
I won a gift certificate for a tattoo at the Witches Ball, and I figured it's a good time to get my cheap-ass off to get tattooed!

ANNOUNCING THE DULUTH SECESSION MOVEMENT

Free Duluth! Since the rest of the country is clearly batshit, we propose secession from it. Screw 'em. We got it all right here and we're keeping it. Reject the times, embrace your future as a citizen of the Free Republic of Duluth. Watch for a formal public declaration. Be a part of it! We need to finalize a name, design a flag, build a website, and elect a president and other governing officers. Make up your own office and run for it - we're free now to do as we wish. For Duluth President, I nominate Allen Richardson of the Gonzo Science party, running on a strict No Wierdos platform. Run your own candidate, make signs, flyers, bumper stickers, and buttons. Stay tuned for further announcements of contact info, official secession announcement, formal campaign launches, debate schedules, election date, and most importantly, parties. Preserve our unique culture from the cultural imperialism of our oppressors. All aboard! Next stop: freedom. Email gonzoscience@hotmail.com to help and/or declare your candidacy. And may God bless the Free Republic of Duluth.

Not dead after all!

Before you ask yourself, "what kind of stupid post is that??"... we've elected stupider people President. :P

Axis of Weasles

Okay, I havent posted for awhile...been hunkering in the bunker...IYKWIM....but I thought I'd return with a bit of photshop fun. Not my best work but you get my drift.

Also I found an Interesting web site about daily life in nazi germany.

"Daily life in Nazi Germany was manipulated from the beginning of Nazi rule.Propaganda dominated popular culture and entertainment.Anti-intellectualism was used to prevent the people from thinking and feeding into their strong sense of national and military pride.Finally, Hitler and the party realized the possibilities of controlling Germany’s youth as a means of continuing the Reich, and insuring total control over a future generation."

My feeling on this mess, The fundamentalists everywhere are in the height of their orgy of fear! Soon they will consume themselves and leave us to the global reunification with the collective unconcious we richly desreve...and pizza!

The Deal With Gobstoppers

Today for my lunch break, I sat in my car and listened to the Kerry concession speech. To consol my saddened heart I had a box of Gobstoppers leftover from Halloween. What a dissapointment on two fronts. Has anyone else noticed that Gobstoppers have been reduced in size? They seem so much smaller than they used to be. Also they hardly change color at all! I did a little taste/color test. Each color now only changes to one other color.

Yellow->Orange
Orange->Yellow
Purple-> Red
Green->Purple
Red->Orange

I read the box, and thier slogan is "Layers & Layers of Fun". Layers? Who are they kidding? The box deceivingly shows laughing jawbreakers with four colors. My question is this: Does anyone else remember Gobstoppers differently? And when exactly did they become so shoddy?

Lady in Red (Is Dancing With Meat)

If you followed the PDD link from last week to Radio 1 downloads, you may have come across a "butchered" version of Chris DeBurgh's "Lady in Red." You can also find it here.

If your Halloween played out right, you found yourself slow dancing to this song at the end of the night, with a bloody partner.
