Curious and Nail-Spitting Furious George...Can the Canadian government arbitrarily assign you an income, and then tax you on it? I got back my tax return, and they'd taken the income I stated, and multiplied it (apparently) by 2.3, and then taxed me on that. Gee whiz...I wonder if that had anything to do with my stating escorting as my profession.

Curious George-Movie I haven't been to the movies since Matrix:Revolutions. Not just because the movie sucked, but I'm sick of paying $10 ($11, now) to sit in a room with inconsiderate and rude people who seem intent on destroying any semblance of an enjoyable movie experience. From cell phones, to inane chatter, to kids with ADD, the A/V experience is no longer worth the pain for me. Just was wondering if any other monkeys have sworn off movie theaters as well, or if anyone wants to share a particularly harrowing experience at the theater, with regards to this. more inside

John Peel now playing that Great Gig in the Sky Sadly, long-time DJ John Peel passed on earlier today during a vacation in Peru. The Peel Sessions on BBC's Radio 1 were a great influence on musicians and were how a wide and tasty variety of influential music was introduced to the masses. He will be missed.

Ladies and gentlemen, chocolate fountains. Or, for our savory-favoring monkeys, nacho cheese fountains.

RIP John Peel
"John's influence has towered over the development of popular music for nearly four decades. He will be hugely missed." more inside

Mosh - Eminem joins the ABB (anybody but Bush) crowd. Not playing on a TV near you.

Apologies - I've been informed that I've been rather harsh & bastardish lately. This is just to say: sorry, Monkeys. more inside

Virginity Rules! "We won’t fall into bed ‘til we’re legally wed! We will not heave [sic] sex; this is what we have said. We’re not falling for the old standards; we’ll tell you that now. It’s not bad! Don’t have a cow! Virginity rules so we’re protecting our rights, Our bodies are treasures; we won’t give ‘em up without a fight. Sex is serious; perversions we won’t allow. Abstinence is the way….it’s your right…decide now!"

Lincoln vs Bush and President Bush. Not so much a gem as a semi-precious stone, but good for a giggle nonetheless.

Rhabarbermarmelade... Say it loud, and there's music playing. Say it soft, and it's almost like praying.

The Female Labia Enhancement Centre
As opposed, one assumes, to the Male Labia Enhancement Centre? "It's every girl's dream, to have perfect vaginal lips." Front page SFW, VERY MUCH _NOT_ SAFE FOR WORK ONCE YOU START CLICKING AROUND. "One survey query described it, that it looks more like a war injury then a vulva." So what do we think? Hoax? Gag? Serious?

The language of Molière in danger, France strikes back. They want French to become the official language of EU law. The claim is that it is more precise. [Telegraph article. Bugmenot account: name, "marketing@telegraph.co.uk", password: "password" ]

Bill Clinton to run for UN Secretary-General. He would be the first US leader of the UN and if he ran for the position would have support from Germany, France, England, Ireland, New Zealand, a handful of African states, Morocco and Egypt. It would be much harder to ignore Bill Clinton as the leader of the UN as it currently is to ignore Kofi Annan. Like him or not I think it means big things for the UN.

Just what is around the corner? I know that quite a few Monkeys are science fiction readers. So, here is a brief discussion involving Cory Doctorow and Charlie Stross about writing science fiction when you the world around the corner is perhaps even less knowable than before.
