facts + logic = truth
Or, better yet, just don't start one at all. With Alex Jones getting more shrill and fatalistic by the day and Glenn Beck talking about FEMA concentration camps, a few conspiranoids seem to be thinking this is Zero Hour: Act now, or forever hold your peace in an American gulag. You know the conspiranoid community... Continue Reading →
On March 2, a Playboy.com article by Mark Ames and Yasha Levine, "Backstabber: Is Rick Santelli High On Koch?" (since removed from the site), revealed that CNBC commentater Rick Santelli's apparently spontaneous rant of Feb. 19th, in which he suggested having a "Chicago tea party" to protest Obama's housing stimulous plan, was really a carefully...

It kills fish! It causes cancer! Oh, wait, that's DDT. As you were. I hoped that the TV digital converter box hysteria would die down after numerous people opened up their boxes on YouTube videos, revealing the conspicuous absence of any cameras, recording devices, or tiny aerosol-spray compartments full of Gay Gas . I hoped... Continue Reading →
20something guy overheard in a coffeeshop: "Primordial bacteria are killing fisherman; the planet is fighting back, just like in The Happening." He went on to say that Steven Spielberg deserves props for including the "suppressed" knowledge of head-binding in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, even though it was a crappy movie....

Note: This is the last time I'll be devoting a post to Alex Jones on this blog, because I've started up a separate blog just for him: Leaving Alex Jonestown. It won't contain play-by-play analysis of every single one of his broadcoasts, 'cause even I am not masochistic enough to listen to Alex Jones more... Continue Reading →
From 1957, one of the stupidest contactee scams ever. The next time somebody asks you to invest in a product they learned to produce on Venus, justdon't. If you drink heavily, then squint for half an hour, you too can see cool man-made structures on the moon! Someone has used a "Penetrating Photographic Process" to... Continue Reading →
Paula Oliviera, a 26-year-old Brazilian lawyer, claimed earlier this month that while visiting Switzerland she was assaulted by a group of neo-Nazi punks. The three skinheads grabbed her as she stood outside a train station in Zurich, speaking Portuguese over her cell phone. They made some racial slurs, then carved the initials of Switzerland's wildly... Continue Reading →
Helpful Hint: Before trying to fight extradition to the U.S., first make sure you do not look exactly like Richard Ramirez. Free Gary! He can save the world! Or not. British national Gary McKinnon , 42, perpetrated what one U.S. prosecutor called "the biggest military computer hack of all time". (1) Between February 2000 and... Continue Reading →
To celebrate, you can watch NOVA's excellent recap of the Dover trial, "Intelligent Design on Trial", online here! If you can find a copy, I also recommend Randy Olson's comic documentary Flock of Dodos, which I think is a good answer to Expelled (even though it came out before Expelled). The Discovery Institute was so... Continue Reading →
As if he isn't busy enough saving the world alongside Freemasonic ninjas, former financial journalist Benjamin Fulford also had to have spinal surgery on January 22. But don't worry about him. He was well enough to be a guest on Jeff Rense's radio show the very next day, and he finally understood why he had... Continue Reading →
