The big story for the second day in a row on Daypop is the Microsoft advertisement (thnx Dave for saving this!) for Mac users switching to PCs that features a hired actress, or perhaps worse, just a picture of a model from stock photography.

This is a surprise? Ha! Just what the fuck do you think you're seeing on tv every second? A big bag of tricks. Again, read the Zen TV Experiment!! [Adam Curry: Adam Curry's Weblog]

Wow!! the Zen TV article mentioned above is cool! I've done this myself, actually it kinda happened when I was on the phone and had to shut the sound off.. Its absolutely amazing to watch TV without sound.. Also, if you've had a few beers.. and turned the sound off.. try it.. its bewildering..

American Stupidity and Iraq. If you are an American like me, chances are that the rest of the world thinks you're stupid. During the last year, our countrymen have developed a reputation for being apathetic, naive, ignorant, and just plain dumb. Well, I am an American with some dignity, and I happen to think that average Americans are not significantly dumber than anyone else. But then how can we explain our baffling support for G. W. Bush's pretense for starting a war in Iraq? Two explanations are usually offered: Ignorance and stupidity. I've witnessed several debates about which of these plays the larger role. However, I think it's neither. Our ignorance and stupidity have been grossly overestimated. [kuro5hin.org]

Whoa! An Excellent read! (BTW, I never read it! so YMMV)

Zope 2.6.0 Final Released.

Zope 2.6.0 has gone gold. I’ve upgraded my sites to the final release. Where I said earlier in the week that the Catalog was still broken, it appears that is not true. Well, the defaults given to the Catalog have been removed as they either didn’t work or had become too crufty. I’ll try to summarise why they made the changes they did. In the end it means a better Zope, ...

Neitzsche, Mr. T, and the Nature of Things

(No! Not with David Suzuki! )

Why would somebody name their obviously brilliant child after an entry level Japanese car, is just beyond me! Weird ppl!

Okay, Here is the main idea of this post:

Neitzsche was the Mr. T of Philosophers

Here's a little interview I did with the ole godster the other day:

  • Me: So NitChez, wuzzup ma man?
  • N: Why you gotta dis me like that dowg? you miscreanted my name gee!
  • Me:No but seriously NitChez, what do you think about Socrates?
  • N:I pity the fool!
  • Me:hehe.. right on! And about that guy who was trying to critik the pure reason or something?
  • N:I pity the fool!
  • Me: You know, right now, ppl are really into Plato and his wipe-ass philosophy..
  • N:Plato was a Homo!
  • Me:Yeah! Yeah! totally.. like.. totally agree..
    awkward silence
  • Me (again): So what do you think of Ayn Rand???
  • N (miffed but amused): baby got back! but I still pity her!
  • Me (lamely):great talking to you! Toot Too Du Loot Du..?
  • NitChez:peeps! Biotch!
  • Me (embarrassed): No seriously..NitChez, Toot Too Du Loot Du..?
  • N:: Toot Toot! ... You're SOO fucking lame man! (mike is turned off.. N's lips are still moving..)

    Okay, so now you know that I am a BUZZ fan, and wouldn't be able to carry on a conversation with a poodle, let alone some kinduh pheelosopher!

    I do think (still) that Neitzsche could kick Socrates & Plato's ass in a two on one (WWF style)

    ..beep... peeps Biotch!.. beep... beep

  • Hey Mon.. Gimme a bucket O' Dead (Chicken that is)

    It is odd, and ironic to boot, that the descendents of the shrews that used to run for their lives from the once mighty dinosaurs, are slaughtering their (The Dinosaurs') descendents by the millions on a daily basis. I was thinking about this as I was ripping the flesh off the bones of one of these countless, nameless birds, and admiring how succulent it was.

    I might be going warchalking this coming weekend. I might be taking a bus ride to Hamilton for the week too! Holy Shiitttee!! this thing is like a monkey on my back! Why Oh Why?

    You know I just realized, that the more you work, and toil, the less you make. I see so many people around who are freaking geniuses, but don't seem to be doing well (well they are tech geniuses supposedly). This goes back to What John Ralston was regurgitating in his book about Voltaire's unbegotten progeny.. (or something like that.. please don't make me look these up in the dictionary)

    Whoa, there is a chick (presumably Jennifer Chamberlain) on TV who is bald and has jewellery and precious stones stuck to her head. Oops, I think she was a breast cancer survivor on chemo.. Man, I'm such a gun jumping insensitive asshole sometimes..

    Now she's complaining that people stare at her. .well hey! They stare at me all the time.. actually this other chick has a pretty face, even though she is kinda oldish.

    Okay, eeeee-fucking-nuff!!!, on Fox they're showing basefuck! Jesus H. Christ!!! This makes me wanna puke!

    Sometimes I'm not satisfied with the level of incompetence I have attained.. sometimes I wish I was a bit more incompetent.. I could use some more money..
