So, the internet is ‘a buzz’ with people looking for the gruesome video caught on cell phone of Saddam Hussein’s hanging.

I saw the Saddam execution footage on youtube and Google video. The choppy strange cell phone video of the event just seemed bizarre. After all these years, all the time and money spent, lives lost, etc, you’d THINK that they could have pulled off a more dignified execution.

To be honest it looked like a bunch of school hooligans were putting on this event. Hopefully they get their act together over there, this was not their finest moment even though the event itself has been a long time coming and quite deserved in my opinion.

Anyways, if you are looking for pictures of the saddam hanging just search on youtube or google video and you’ll be sure to find a copy of the actual video.

So, I was on this message board early this morning and someone was talking about some pics of Paris Hilton’s mom in a see through blouse, etc… So some guy puts a link up that did not work correctly and someone posted a new (to me anyways) and improved “You Suck at The Internet” image that had me rolling.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Cheers

I don’t think I’ve seen a more humorus letter of resignation than this. Keep in mind however, this was discovered on a message board online so it’s possible it’s just an “urban legend” type of thing. However, the original poster of this said it was real. Either way it’s a riot! Enjoy.

“Dear Mr. Baker,

As a graduate of an institution of higher education, I have a few very basic expectations. Chief among these is that my direct superiors have an intellect that ranges above the common ground squirrel. After your consistent and annoying harassment of my coworkers and me during the commission of our duties, I can only surmise that you are one of the few true genetic wastes of our time.

Asking me, a network administrator, to explain every little nuance of everything I do each time you happen to stroll into my office is not only a waste of time, but also a waste of precious oxygen. I was hired because I know how to network computer systems, and you were apparently hired to provide amusement to myself and other employees, who watch you vainly attempt to understand the concept of “cut and paste” for the hundredth time.

You will never understand computers. Something as incredibly simple as binary still gives you too many options. You will also never understand why people hate you, but I am going to try and explain it to you, even though I am sure this will be just as effective as telling you what an IP is. Your shiny new iMac has more personality than you ever will.

You walk around the building all day, shiftlessly looking for fault in others. You have a sharp dressed useless look about you that may have worked for your interview, but now that you actually have responsibility, you pawn it off on overworked staff, hoping their talent will cover for your glaring ineptitude. In a world of managerial evolution, you are the blue-green algae that everyone else eats and laughs at. Managers like you are a sad proof of the Dilbert principle. Since this situation is unlikely to change without you getting a full frontal lobotomy reversal, I am forced to tender my resignation, however I have a few parting thoughts.

1. When someone calls you in reference to employment, it is illegal for you to give me a bad recommendation. The most you can say to hurt me is “I prefer not to comment.” I will have friends randomly call you over the next couple of years to keep you honest, because I know you would be unable to do it on your own.

2. I have all the passwords to every account on the system, and I know every password you have used for the last five years. If you decide to get cute, I am going to publish your “favorites list”, which I conveniently saved when you made me “back up” your useless files. I do believe that terms like “Lolita” are not usually viewed favorably by the administration.

3. When you borrowed the digital camera to “take pictures of your Mother’s birthday,” you neglected to mention that you were going to take pictures of yourself in the mirror nude. Then you forgot to erase them like the techno-moron you really are. Suffice it to say I have never seen such odd acts with a sauce bottle, but I assure you that those have been copied and kept in safe places pending the authoring of a glowing letter of recommendation. (Try to use a spell check please; I hate having to correct your mistakes.)

Thank you for your time, and I expect the letter of recommendation on my desk by 8:00 am tomorrow. One word of this to anybody, and all of your little twisted repugnant obsessions will be open to the public. Never f*** with your systems administrator. Why? Because they know what you do with all that free time!

Wishing you a grand and glorious day,

______”

You’ve got to love the internet for it’s ability to communicate fast & effectively about odd rumors and/or news.

I stumbled across an interesting read on the theory of why the Dave Chappelle show was cancelled.

If it’s true, I’d not be shocked as they say ‘truth is stranger than fiction.’

Anyways, check it out, it’s an interesting read.

It amazes me how being gay is still such a big issue in the year 2005. The article mentions that he met some guy online that was 18 and wanted to hookup. That may be considered odd as the age difference is fairly large. But as long as all he sought after were people of legal age that were consenting adults, what should it matter to us?

Gay-chat room talk could be mayor’s doom
Northwest Herald Sun, 04 Dec 2005 07:48:00 GMT
SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) Mayor Jim West, a former Boy Scout executive and sheriff’s deputy, says he no longer engages in gay sex and has stopped visiting Internet chat rooms.

I guess the only thing that is noteable is that he is a Republican who’s platform is the most unaccepting of people from his sexual preference.

That’s all for now.

Ok, so I’ve been slacking in posting lately. Sorry but just got done moving AGAIN.

I was visiting one of my favorite forums today and someone posted a humorous picture I thought I’d share with yous guys.

If you’ve been on newsgroups or forums you’ve probably heard this phrase before, it’s so common that it’s got a rather extensive page on Wikipedia about it.

Internet troll
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

In internet terminology, a troll is a person who posts inflammatory messages on the internet, such as on online discussion forums, to disrupt the discussion or to upset its participants. The word, or its variant, “trolling”, is also used to describe such messages or the act of posting them.

Anyways, enjoy the link & the pic and have a kick ARSE rest of the week!

Ok, found another pretty funny thing on an online message board (forum) the other day that I thought I’d share with you.

This came from Bill Maher’s recent comedy show a week or two I guess. Take a read, have a laugh.

Funny letter Bill Maher wrote to George W
In case you missed last Friday’s HBO’s “Late Night with Bill Maher,”
here was his open letter to the President:

Mr. President, this job can’t be fun for you any more.
There’s no more money to spend–you used up all of that.

So, yes, God does speak to you.
What he is saying is: “Take a hint.”

PS: I’ll try to get some images and animated gifs up soon of Hurricane Rita.

AOL Launching Podcast Search Engine
From searchenginejournal.com - 9/14/2005

“On the heels of an announcement that AOL is offering a variety of Podcasting tools at AOL.com/podcasting, where listeners can “discover, experience and download some of the web’s most popular podcasts” which include KCRW’s “This Week in Tech,” AOL’s “Sports Bloggers Live,” and AOLRadio’s new Podcasting station; AOL is also getting into Podcast search. AOL is offering podcast search of thousands of podcasts on its Winamp 5.1 media player and is planning on launching a full service podcast search ability on AOL Search.”

Read the full article here.

Podcasting is one of those things I really need to look more into. I guess it’d help if I’d finally break down and get an Ipod too since that’s an integral part of what’s spawned this craze.

Anyways, post some comments if you know more about this topic. I’d love to hear more on it… So far all I know is it’s basically where someone can record their ‘radio show’ so to speak, save it in some file format and share it. The sharing of it is the actual ‘podcasting’ where it can be picked up through online services and played on people’s ipods. Did I get any of that right? I sure hope so!

In the spirit of this post, I feel I must share one of my favorite images that I found on various messageboards that always gives me a good laugh.
