I doubted the existence of god for a long time…until I found over 300 proofs of god’s existence. Example:
ONTOLOGICAL ARGUMENT (I)
(1) I define God to be X.
(2) Since I can conceive of X, X must exist.
(3) Therefore, God exists.
Now I know that he’s real.

I decided to track these codes down this morning after I got the 957th hang-up call from (most likely) telemarketers who, when I *69ed the number came up unavailable. Now when they try to call they’ll feel the awesome power of their natural enemy, *62!
It’s hot in Oregon. The weather pixie might say “81F” but don’t believe it. It’s 81 celsius. I saw Satan twice yesterday.
I was reading The Smoking Gun’s 2003 Article of the Year and I came across this page which explains the origins of lots of other naughty words:
Cock:
The word “cock” dates to early 17th century England and not to surprisingly relates to the rooster. Roosters have an annoying habit of getting up early in the morning and crowing loudly to welcome the morning sun. As the rooster crows, he stretches out his neck and points it upwards. Think, morning. Think something raising it’s head….enough said?
I completely wasted two perfectly good opportunities to replace my car at someone else’s expense today.
First, while returning from dropping Christine off at the airport, I was nearly sideswiped by a brand new Cadillac. I would have been the other driver’s fault, thusly getting my totaled car replaced with a new one.
Next, while driving across town I nearly T-boned a brand new Volkswagen Passat when the driver (who was having an important conversation on her cell phone at the time) failed to yield at an intersection.
Blown chances, both of them. I though bitterly about this while driving my busted, 14-year-old, dirty, crappy car home in traffic while slowly cooking due to the lack of A/C and functioning driver’s side window. Every sqeak and grinding sound from the brakes was my blown opportunity mocking me.
According to this article from Fox News, Paul Wolfowitz said:
“This is a war that’s going to be won not by smothering the country with individual guard posts (but) by better and better intelligence,” Wolfowitz said.
I thought that the war was over?
Another funny thing:
“The reports of deaths are terrible. Any American death is a terrible thing,” Wolfowitz said. “But I think the American public understands that when you’re fighting a war against terrorists, when you’re fighting for the security of this country, that sacrifice is something that you’d have to expect.”
What ever happened to fighting Al-Qaeda? What’s the difference between terrorism and guerilla warfare?
Oh well. It’s not like Wolfowitz has any credibility to lose anyway.

However, Oliver the humanzee is still representing. Good for him. Keep holding true, Oliver.
Friendster is arguable the biggest meme to hit the internet this year. Slate asks the question, ‘Why is everyone you know on friendster?’ and the answer of course is, ‘yes’. It’s pretty funny, because I got myself entangled with it only yesterday, and now
You are connected to 294 people in your Personal Network, through 1 friend.
I wonder how Kevin Bacon would do at this game. It’s pretty insane. A quick google news search on the topic reaps tons of articles. And according to Wired news,
“It’s growing exponentially,” said CEO and founder Jonathan Abrams.

That’s got to stop somewhere. There are only so many people on the planet. Then again, it’s not a bad thing. If it goes far enough, soon everyone will meet everyone else, become friends, and there will be no more famine or war.
