And A Merry Little Christmas To You

What Would Tyler Durden Do?

Just a short post. Things you should and will go and see and read. Do it.

I love celebrity gossip. Everyone does. But I rarely find crusty gossip, gossip with snark, gossip with disturbing and troubling undercurrents. But then, I never went here before yestarday. Oh, boy. That's some good snark. By the by, don't know who Tyler Durden is? Read or watch Fight Club again. Jeez.

For anyone who has worked in the service industry or knows anyone in the service industry or feels somehow entitled when dealing with someone in the service industry, I give you this. The best blog post EVER. Maybe.

Are you, like me, a fan of the late, great Hunter Stockton Thompson? Are you, like me, slightly obsessive about the doctor? Then run, don't walk, to M + B gallery in Los Angeles. Go. Now. Or you can check out this.

That's it. For now. And, really, what would Tyler Durden do?

P.S. For some fine-ass pics of Motley Crue in the Soo (I'm a freakin poet), check out these. I know the photographer. She feeds me and keeps me in boxers.

Ciao.

Measuring The Speed Of Meme...

A cool experiment... In which you will participate in or... I'll just say, think of the children, won't someone think of the children?!!??

Anyway. Over atAcephalous, there is an experiment going on and I'm going to partake. And so are You... Sorry. So, the experiment... You know how all kinds of fine folks say things about things going across, through, around the Internets Series of Tubes and Highways? Well, they do. Who? Fine folks. What fine folks? Stop asking me questions, dammit. Jeez. So, the core of the nugget is that information or stuff that isn't so informational can now travel at speeds unimaginable from one side of the Internets to the other and back again. Take Brittany Spears crotch shots, for example. How many times a day did we come face to face with yet another posting or opinion regarding Ms Spears and her commando fashion sense in the last few days? Thousands of times if you go to some of the bottom swill sites I check out (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) (sorry). But did it travel the entirety of the Internet Super Freeway? Or did it just go from crotchshotsofthefamous.com to CNN to canada.com and sputter out somewhere around mywifedoesntknowihaveawebcam.com?

Does any stuff really, truly travel the breadth and depth and width of the Internet World Wide Of Web?

Don't know, do we...

So, back to the experiment... It is here. Go. Now. What? You're still here? Jeez. Over at Acephalous they have a program thingy that is browsing the Web Roadway of Tubes every ten minutes or so looking for this link. Mapping out the travels this link has taken in its journey from one basement to the next, to the next, to the next.

And, no, this is not Chain Mail and you will not become rich and famous in 30 days and something horrible will not befall anyone you love or yourself and you will not find any guaranteed winning lottery numbers or pictures of angels or crotch shots of single mother pop tarts, but... If you do post this link on your blog-thingy, I most assuredly will not fling any pooh at your living room window. I promise.

No fingers crossed or anything.

So the way to participate in this experiment... 1) Link to the post in your blog-whatsit; 2) Try to convince others to do the same by any means necessary; 3) Ping Technorati.

Have fun. And drink plenty of water.

And keep your legs together, the world has seen enough crotch shots.
