Black Bush
I forgot about this one and it is as true today as. . .
DFP is a mostly link site of what i find throughout the net. and occasionally I will post self gratifying wonky crap about the bullshit i think is important. you know, blog stuff.
the Onion prognosticated another real news headline. This time from the New England Journal of Medicine Fat friends make you fat
I remember a year or two there was another one about Gillette and how they cam out with a 5 blade razor when the onion had read those tea leaves as well.
This is a truly weird video. Zach galifianakis stars in the Kanye song "Can't Tell Me Nothing".
From a previous interview:
Are you into much hip hop these days?
Zach: Not really, even though strangely I’m shooting Kanye West’s new music video here at the farm. He asked me to do it. He doesn’t want to be in it, but he sent me this new song and then asked me to make a video for him here at my farm. He saw me do stand up a few weeks ago here in Los Angeles, and we chatted after the show. He had seen me do these other music videos; I did one for Fiona Apple and I did one of my own where I sing an Anita Baker song. So he saw the Anita Baker one and asked me if I would come up with something. So we’ve been going back and forth trying to figure out what I’m going to do with the song. So I’m figuring that out here at my farm.
Do you know if this is going to be the first single off his new album?
Zach: No I don’t think so. I don’t know what the single is? I have no idea. I think he just wants to release it. No one really does music videos anymore, so he just turned it over to me and gave me a few bucks. I guess I’ll probably shoot it at the end of the day.
Whew, Pres. Bush is awake from his colon surgery to remove a polyp. That meant we had Pres. Cheney for 3 hours today.
Just want to give the all's clear.
Frankly I thought he'd pardon Scooter.
Bush says that a pay raise of %3.5 is too much. "Go cry in your body armor," Bush was over heard saying.
Douche
Here is a tribute album to the 10 year anniversary of Radiohead's OK Computer. A bunch of covers, oh ya and it's free.
You all have heard how hard the naturalization test is to become a citizen. Take a practice test and see if you can beat my %90 (which was bullshit because the second to last question asks what form number to use to apply for citizenship).
I also don't like the phraseology of the last question. The 1st amendment does not guarantee "freedom of religion", it disallows the creation of a state sponsored religion. This is picky and logically is basically the same. I mention it because I have been in arguments with religios about this guarantee, and they bust out that difference to support ID, creationism, and prayer in school.
For the finance nerds,
With sub-prime mortgage defaults going through the roof, here is an excellent analysis of what it means for the larger market and big fish alike. Maybe the detractors of sub prime assistance will look into it once it hits their 401k.
