Kijk, nog een link die Free van mij gepikt heeft: The 10 Technologies that Will Help You Stay Employed. Ik ken ze allemaal, van dicht of van ver, dus ik kan gewoon mijn werk niet kwijtgeraken.

Toch vreemd, een blijkbaar intelligente madam als Rachel Lucas die zo voor wapens is.

Rachel is a 30-year-old gun-totin’ capitalist oppressor who loathes Al Gore. And don’t mess with Texas, because that’s where Rachel lives with John, who’s also a gun-toter but loathes Hillary Clinton more than Al Gore.

…en ze meent het dus echt, geen greintje ironie te bespeuren.

Godverdomme, The Sopranos begint morgen om 23u05. Da’s smack dab in the middle van bbc verdorie.

Maar aan de positieve kant: The Osbournes is begonnen op kanaaltwee. What is bloody up met die ondertiteling? Ozzy zegt “What the fuck, how does this fucking thing work?”, en kanaaltwee vertaalt “hoe werkt dit f***ing…”

Huh?

’t Zal wel op niets uitdraaien, maar een mens kan maar hopen:

Margie Schoedinger of Missouri City, Texas has filed a lawsuit against George W. Bush in Fort Bend County Court. In her suit she is alleging “race based harassment and individual sex crimes committed against her and her husband.” The suit lists numerous offenses and asks for actual damages, punitive damages and judgments against George W. Bush. [Fort Bend Star]

Hehe. Marquee mutilation.

Tiens, kijk, CDNOW bestaat niet meer.

Soms vind je nog wel eens interessant commentaar bij Fark (van Tadlette):

This is what happens when you try to even out social inequality too quickly. I wrote a diatribe on the Venezuelan situation just a few days ago which I shall now recycle, just like the good greenie I am. Yay. Just make sure you check out the Freepers comments for some top-notch refined and purified amusing bullshiat, it’s worth it.

The people opposing the government are the oil companies, the army, and the rich. They are mostly white, and of course the poor are mostly black or indian. I liked the article that described the anti-chavez protestors wearing pearls and sipping champagne while ‘camped out’ on their demonstration.

The protestors were shot at last week, credible sources report the gunman was caught and admitted to being hired by an anti-government general. He used his own supporters lives to drum up more support for his cause. Dirty politics at its best.

So why don’t the opposition like him? Chavez is a filthy communist, that’s why the US government want him out and have supported both coups. When will this communism demon die for the US government.

“Chavez’s real crime was to pass two laws through Venezuela’s national assembly. The first ordered big plantation owners to turn over untilled land to the landless. The second nearly doubled, from roughly 16% to 30%, royalties paid for extracting Venezuela’s oil. Venezuela was once the largest exporter of oil to the USA, bigger than Saudi Arabia. This explains Chavez’s unpopularity – at least within that key constituency, the American petroleum industry. “

Anyway – there are reports that he’s arming the poorer citizens as we speak, they were the ones that voted him in and he hopes in the next coup they will be the ones that keep him in.

“Thursday, December 12, 2002 — Uruguayan EP-FA congressman Jose Bayardi says he has information that far-reaching plans have been put into operation by the CIA and other North American intelligence agencies to overthrow Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez Frias within the next 72 hours.

Bayardi says he has received copies of top-secret communications between the Bush administration in Washington and the government of Uruguay requesting the latter’s cooperation to support white collar executives and trade union activists “to break down levels of intransigence within the Chavez Frias administration.”

now check out the pure unadulterated bullshiat the freepers have spewed on the matter, and notice almost _all_ the faces are white:

Confirmed US involvement in the first coup?

“What was indeed confirmed is that the airplane booked to take Chávez off Orchilla Island and out of the country belonged to Paraguayan banker Vænbsp;ctor Gil (TotalBank). And where was it headed? According to personnel of the airplane registered in the United States, the flight was headed to Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory. “

“U.S. intervention was to be found not only in ?advice? from high government officials in Washington such as Roger Pardo-Maurer (in charge of special operations and low-intensity conflicts in Latin America for the Pentagon), Otto Reich, and/or John Maisto, but also from Lieut. Col. James Rodger, assigned to the Military Attaché Office of the U.S. Embassy in Caracas, who supported the revolt with his presence on the fifth floor of army headquarters, where he advised the generals in the rebellion. “

Ik ga eens proberen videoconferencen naar mijn ouders. Zien of dat werkt.

OK, I stand corrected. I think. Zo had ik er nog niet over nagedacht:

We meet an alien race that is smart enough to figure out how to resurrect the dead, but isn’t quite smart enough to figure out how to do it for more than one day. That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard. It’s ridiculous because you completely misunderstood it. They weren’t aliens. They were highly sophisticated mecha. Humans became extinct in the 2,000 year interval, but mecha survived and evolved by reproducing themselves. The “aliens” you see are the end result of 2,000 years of mecha evolution. And they didn’t resurrect the dead. They initially told David that they would be unable to resurrect his mother because they lacked her DNA, but when Teddy presented the hairs, they had to improvise. “Give him what he wants,” said the narrator. They created, out of David’s memories, an image of his mother, and let him interact with her for one day. Why only one day? Because they wanted to give David a sense of peace before euthanizing him. See, the key to understanding this movie is to know that the human characters were all selfish and cruel– intentionally or otherwise– and that the mecha characters were all innocent and pure. David, especially, had to be innocent; he was programmed to be. The uber-mecha were the culmination of this: they were supremely innocent, supremely kind, supremely compassionate. When they found this primitive mecha under the ice, they recognized him for what he was. They knew that he was capable of feeling, but not of learning or growing. So they did what the humans, in their arrogance, could not. They destroyed him. Last shot – cyberboy frozen in the block of ice staring at the blue fairy. Credits. Much better ending. Sorry, but I disagree. The existing ending is overwhelmingly powerful, if one understands it.

Dat doet er mij aan denken: Louis’ uitspraak is helemaal anders dan die van Zelie als ze klein was. Pak nu Kabouter Plop. Zelie zei in het begin iets als “pappe klop”, en Louis doet gewoon “taboute”.

En er was nog geen Bob de Bouwer toen Zelie klein was, maar we keken wel naar Musti en naar Tik Tak. Nu speelt Louis gewoon met Zelie, en Zelie met Louis als de rest haar tegensteekt.

L’aubaine! Zelie en Louis zijn vandaag tot ongeveer halfnegen blijven liggen! Ik was om halvier wakker en ik dacht dat het al halfacht was. Ik ben dan de rest van de nacht om het halfuur wakker geworden. Beste manier van slapen die er is: regelmatig half wakker worden en beseffen dat ik nog een beetje mag slapen.

En vanmorgen heb ik ze er gewoon uitgehaald terwijl ze nog niet aan het roepen waren. Wakker, maar nog niet kwaad, zo heb ik ze het liefste 🙂

En met al dat is het nu dus al twintig na negen, zijn ze alletwee aangekleed en gevoed, en klaar om te spelen. Zelie is nu Louis aan het uitleggen dat hij in de kleurboeken moet kleuren aan de kant waar de tekening nog niet ingekleurd is.

Ik ben al lang content dat hij vanmorgen blijkbaar het verschil maakt tussen kleurboek en leesboek.
