He’s only 14, so I should cut him some slack.

(No. Can’t control myself, sorry.)

Is people this stupid all over big world?

BTW, I’m not entirely happy with Huntington Life Sciences myself. I also have a small problem with child molesters/murderers/managers, but the mobs that bay for their blood scare me. Same goes for some of these animal rights campaigners – especially those who campaign in the High Street with very upsetting posters showing all manner of mutilated animals.

Fine, the animals don’t deserve to be assaulted – but then, neither do my kids.

Good morning pop-pickers! With a prize-winning 60 links, it’s linkandthink.org at No. 1 – for reasons that should be obvious.

You’ll also notice a bunch of commercial links lurking at the bottom, because a bunch of weblogs have died and been taken over by LinkVista. I won’t bother doing a whole report on this one. You’ll just have to take my word for it, or read my report from last time.

Look out Bibleman, there’s a new Christian superhero on the block. There’s a lot I could say about Armorman, but I feel this short cut-and-paste from the site says it all:

Q. What can we do to help you?

A.

1) Pray for us . Wisdom, ect…
(sic)

2) Pray more

Oh, it also goes on to request that I:

3) Share the web site with your e-mail friends and tell your youth leaders

Done and done.

Mike Wiley is a self-confessed ‘Road Geek’. His website at ylekot.com includes many, many pictures of roads and road signs. BTW, ‘ylekot’ is not only his domain name, it’s also his personalised numberplate. What does it stand for? Well, Mike helpfully tells us that ‘if you say the individual letters (Y-L-E-K-O-T) you will phonetically say my nickname.’

Sorry, we don’t have that rumour published here any more (though there may be mention of it in the archive).

Oh, BTW, a a French author has claimed that the Sept. 11 attacks were faked ‘to promote a U.S. military agenda that included waging war in Afghanistan.’

He’s actually planning a a promotional tour in the States. Should be worth keeping tabs on.

A Californian company is selling tickets to heaven for $15 (plus a $4.95 shipping and handling fee). It took me a while (their SEO is really quite pathetic), but I eventually found their website so you could take the time to read the all-important disclaimer.

My advice? Don’t buy tickets from scalpers. Contact your local authorised House of God instead. All they want is your soul.

The U.S. military is using high school databases for recruitment purposes. Presumably they want to nab students before they reach college and become idealists.

On a similar note, Kids in Combat is a website from Good News Ministries that comes with a dire warning on the main entry page:

“Before you click on the spinning “R”, remember it is “R” RATED. You may have to ask permission from your parents. WHY? Because it is not for kids that are weak, wimpy and easily scared! It’s not for kids that fool around at church and just play games all the time.”

The ‘R’, by the way, stands for ‘radical’ (dude).

The sophistication of Christian recruitment methods never fails to amaze me.

They should just advertise the lifestyle of cocaine, porn and sex and be done with it.

Tony Blair’s Email: Deletion of the Hostages
Time

A busy day with little bloggage, as happens from time to time.

I do have a few moments to rattle out the following, though:

1. Ebay is has been down for scheduled maintenance this morning, and will remain down for at least another half-hour.

2. Thanks to the anonymous individual who emailed me a list of parliament email addresses. Yes, I know how the system works and that the standardised naming hierarchy makes it easy to work out what should be the address for Tony – but it’s the only one on the list that doesn’t work. All emails to this address are currently vaporised on arrival.

3. Kevin Marks has chipped in with a very good email-to-fax solution. It’s far from ideal, but I think I know just how to use this information for the greater good. I’ll get back to you.

Busy, busy, busy.

As The Ultimate Insult notes, the Memory Hole is well worth repeat visits. The U.S. government has been cleaning up references to Operation TIPS and unflattering images of Henry Kissinger, but the best example of Internet censorship this week is CNN spiking its own story about people complaining that it spikes stories.

Well, they do have limited server capacity, and obviously they needed to make room for this story about a dentist who climbed a tree to fix a protester’s molar.

Woman shoots husband after finding porn video under their bed. It’s his own damn fault for using the most obvious hiding place in the world.

Factoid #1: People who hide porn under the bed are 67% more likely to use the word ‘password’ as their password.

Factoid #2: If you ever ask me around to your place, do not allow me upstairs, because the first thing I’ll do is peek under your mattress.

A little bit of politics has just crept into page 3 of the Star Wars gallery.

(Oh, and here’s a large version of this pic just in case you feel like changing desktops today…)

You know, after I made my offer to help Downing St sort out the whole email problem, my stats clearly showed someone from their office going through this site with a fine tooth comb. They obviously decided I wasn’t trustworthy enough to take on this responsibility, as a refusal of my kind offer soon followed.

I wasn’t offended… until now, that is.

BTW, there’s only 26 hours left on the auction to delete Tony Blair’s email. Only one bid so far, too. Get your act together, people…

In a few days, Bloggerheads is going to celebrate its first year online. I’m thinking of knocking together a bit of a CD Annual to mark the occasion, and already have some bits and bobs made up – but if you want to request anything in particular on the CD (like your favourite image as a desktop or screensaver) then now is the time.

Oh, and I’m still looking for an Elvis impersonator in Surrey…

Developer plans to introduce charging system for spammers and telemarketers. Don’t hold your breath; the proposed program relies on the introduction of entirely new systems and protocols. Not likely. Besides, this still wouldn’t help much. The bulk of spam comes from recruited affiliates who decide to try it ‘just the once.’

This idea, as clever as it is, is like trying to catch fly posters in the act. This rarely solves the problem, but once local councils start fining the nightclubs, artists and record labels involved, well…

OK, so the site is full of naked people. Lots of them. They even link to a Nudist Casino (which appears to be just like any other online casino, you just take your pants off before you lose your shirt).

Hi

Its been proposted to me by a indian company few days ago for 100$ to make design, job; matrimonial penpal databases, chat, but finally he said is difficult mantain the thing, so he said can can do the web design, and i am not interested only on that, what about you?

I don’t want copyrigths things, that for make clear.

Thanks

Oh, and the spam brigade have given up on trying to sell me a longer penis. The latest offers all seem to be about increased thickness. Next, I’m sure they’ll get onto the need for healthier, more lustrous pubic hair.

B – comedy genius

or

C – desperate plea for attention

Well, it all depends on who his PR chap has been lunching with…
