The plot for tonight was to do at least some cursory, prefunctionary type analysis of the current standings in the White House race.
That’s out the window now.
Heath Ledger was only 28. As I’m writing this its still unclear if the overdose was accidental or intentional. I’ll admit I was an asshole, and the first thought [...]

I Must Be Missing Something… [Part Two]
In which our host continues to eviscerate Rev3 and blow any chance he’ll ever have of working there.
Last time I took on Martin Sargent’s shows Infected and Web Drifter. For this installment I’ll be turning to Rev3’s two darlings: DiggNation and the The Totally Rad Show.
DiggNation and I did not get off on the right [...]

Well This Is Gonna Get Interesting Real Quick
By the time you can see this all that I speak of will be the past. Its the nature of reporting, oh, I suppose there’s live-blogging and its pre-internet forefathers the radio call-in report and TV satellite uplink, but that’s not real journalism *snicker*.
We’ve got a sold out show of Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist tonight [...]

You Know The Demographics Have Changed When…
the ad on the back of GAME INFORMER magazine is for Honda’s Civic Hybrid.
At least the inside back cover is an Army recruitment ad… I was getting worried there for a second.

The Whitest Kids U’ Know
This past Saturday the Sketchfest here in SF featured an fiveman collective from called the Whitest Kids U’ Know. Up until I got the schedule for the fest I hadn’t heard of them, now I can’t get enough.
Their stuff is absurdist, and above all else very, very tight. Both in the hip-hop sense of the [...]

One Last Thing About Disinfo
I had a friend who worked there for a while. He told me that its not called The Disinformation Company without reason.
If you need help figuring that one out, ask Ricky Jay. Look for the “Deceptive Practices” link, and get out the trust fund ledger, my man don’t come cheap.

Well, Bunny That’s All Well And Good…
but I think this one looks more fun:
Graham Hancock’s Supernatural (not to be confused with the Santana album) is all about the “ancient teachers of mankind”. Which would be intelligent fungi and visitors from beyond.
Hey, stop snickering… if nothing else it’ll make good prep reading for Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. Besides, some of [...]

Down The Rabbit Hole
For a while there, back in the day, I was a kind of “virtual intern” for The Disinformation Company. I didn’t really do all that much but help promote a few book signing events “street team” style, in exchange for which I had a line on free books and the occasional chat with Disinfo’s “wicked [...]
