facts + logic = truth
The Wall Street Journal weighs in on the morons who believe traffic cameras are an unlawful invasion of privacy (as they drive drunk down our publicly funded roads, endangering the public, making more work for our publicly funded law enforcement). Sadly, the article is actually quite sympathetic to their gripes. If you don't want a... Continue Reading →
Leaving Alex Jonestown now has a Twitter page. Jones says so many bizarre and blatantly erroneous things that I can't devote a post to each and every one...
The Truther/bitch known here as TrutherBitch is, as you've probably guessed from previous posts about her (here and here), a spam queen. Roughly every third email the Significant Other receives is from her, and 98% of them are written (I use the word loosely) in ALL CAPS, bold, and in 48. (ironic that when the... Continue Reading →
A blog called Suicide Food examines advertisers' use of cute cartoon animals that cheerfully urge you to eat them. (Saturday Night Live lampooned this kind of thing with their decapitated Clucky the Chicken, but Suicide Food takes it to a whole new level.)

Some bored StarCraft fans got sick of waiting around for the StarCraft II beta, so they created a convincing mock-up of an invite and managed to fool thousands of other fans. Then their moms called them up from their basements for dinner. Some 20something Australian douche has been charged for leaving a note about a... Continue Reading →
If you're about 15 years old and living in the U.S., you might have received text messages warning you to stay away from your local Wal-Mart because wannabe gang members are planning to attack women and children shoppers as part of their initiations. Law enforcement agencies in multiple states are trying to quash the rumours,... Continue Reading →
I'm getting sooooo bored with the Bush in Calgary story. He gave his little talk, he's gone, he's prob'ly not going to be charged with war crimes anytime soon. Get over it.
Today is Z Day, the day on which Zeitgeist fans all over the world congregate to be paranoid, self-righteous, and misinformed together. I was going to do a slew of posts on how derivative, simplistic, naive, and fact-free(not to mention boring) Zeitgeist is, but I really don't feel like it at the moment. Let's face...

The fellows at Screw Loose Change mentioned my Alex Jones blog, Leaving Alex Jonestown, at the end of yesterday's post about The Obama Deception. Thanks, guys! As some of you know, my significant other is a Truther, so I'm not really into poking fun at the movement in a sarcastic way (at least not very... Continue Reading →
"Right to the moon! Seriously!" On a recent Coast to Coast AM with George Noory, a guest brought up a truly weird story: Jackie Gleason was friends with Nixon, and Nixon took him to a U.S. military base (Homestead AFB in Florida) to view the body of an ET. The story was told by Gleason's... Continue Reading →
