How Will I Know Her?
"When we meet new girls we ask them if they would like to participate in this project. They are photographed holding photographs of the ones they miss..." Oddly effective.

Cats... who watch... cats Starbuck watching Jack watching Cinnamon watching Wrigley watching Annie watching Molly watching Torin watching Chloe watching Bebe watching Luna watching Frida watching Sammy watching Spot watching Brad Kitt & Cat Stevens watching Fumphy watching Ugly watching Clyde watching Cat1 watching Pixel ...

pr0n as propaganda: "Graphic photos appearing on Arabic websites of U.S. servicemen raping and sexually abusing Iraqi women were actually taken from American and Hungarian pornography sites."(NSFW) Old news, right? But what does it mean when American politicians hand out those photos at a press conference and they make it into a major U.S. newspaper? (possibly NSFW) more inside

La Fee Verte A compendium of absinthe information and ephemera including history, art, and a buyers guide of brands currently manufactured.

Tom's Temple of MST3K is a must-see for fans of Mystery Science Theater 3000 [official], the decade-long show that aired movies we love to hate. Includes a lavishly-illustrated history of the show, a studio tour, sound bites, and more. Other must-sees: Booyaka's MST3K site is a great launchpad, and thumbs up to MST3UK, probably the most content-packed episode guide I've seen but sadly limited to a third of the episodes. Do you have any favorite MST3K sites?

Mexican Airforce plane films UFOs. Did a vehicle come from somewhere, out there? Just to land in the Andes? Was it round and did it have a motor, or was it something different? Video here in mpg format.

No seriously, why didn't this happen sooner? "Ever since I came to Google, they've been talking about putting up an official Google blog. And now, less than 15 months later, voilà."

Bloggers Get Press Credentials? The Boston Globe reports that Jesse Taylor of Pandagon applied for press credentials for the Democratic National Convention. I like Jesse and his blog so I hopes gets his press pass. Jesse will not be welcomed with open arms by the mainstream press if he does.

But this new form of media is colliding with old-hand political structures, such as the House of Representatives Press Gallery, the initial gatekeeper for credential requests. Officials there decided that independent blogs do not fit their standards of "media," and passed their applications down the ladder a rung, to the convention staffs that handle credentials for student and weekly papers.

Bush's People So my question is where did Bush outline in his 2000 campaign that the Neocons would be running the show? Invade Iraq, The Create of American Satellite States in the Mideast, all done with on credit from the US Tresury.

I've no solutions, no ready fix...but if this the state of the world me thinks its time to book a one way ticket to heaven (or hell...depending on who'll have me!) Sheesh!

What it's like driving a train. Most people hate their job. But what about those who haven't lost their passion for it? Al Krug is a BN&SF railroad engineer and has a great website. Read about transporting Boeing 737s, a blown engine, derailments, and just pretty scenery.
