    careful on Del Puerto Canyon Road

    Fuck Washington D.C. and Wall Street

    The recent events should dispel any remaining naive illusions people may harbor as to who owns/runs this country, and for whose benefit it is run. Just as the USSR bloc was a totalitarian kleptocracy paying amused lip-service to the communist ideal, so the USA is an increasingly inequitable...

    The Lolcat Bible

    http://www.lolcatbible.com/index.php?title=Genesis_1 Finally, this beloved classic collection of children's tales is expressed in a language the current generation of kids will readily understand. I hope they don't do a Lolcat Koran though, or our Religion of Peace (tm) brothers will start...
