DeerCam provides insight into deer life, gruesome death

DeerCam 3000The deer who was outfitted with the camera frolicked around for about 20 minutes, walked straight into a hunter’s sight, and got picked off.

The hunter took the camera off the deer’s neck while he skinned and fileted the buck. He took the camera home with him and set it on the end of the kitchen table and filmed himself eating the deer. A little too real.

Sheryl Swoopes becomes a lesbian

ESPN claims Sheryl Swoopes “today becomes the sport’s first openly gay superstar”. What about Rebecca Lobo? Also, on a strange note, I created my fantasy NBA team yesterday, the Boston Hot Lesbos, which may or may not have caused her to make this announcement.

USA Today photoshops Condi Rice with devil eyes

aaaahhhh! The Gams From Birmingham are on the prowl - watch your back.

Google sort of launches Google Base

It’s like eBay & Craigslist. But like all other Google applications, extremely ghetto. There are various screenshots of it floating around (here) from the 2 seconds it was live. Just like the IMHOHOHUM Gmail, I don’t see myself using it any time soon.

Plumbers keep busy around Halloween

Is it because of:
a) Pumpkin guts

  1. I’d like to explain how that happened. USATODAY.com, like other news organizations, often adjusts photos for sharpness and brightness to optimize their appearance when published online. In this case, a USATODAY.com editor sharpened the photo and then brightened a portion of Rice’s face. Those changes had the effect of distorting the photo and failed to meet our editorial standards for accuracy and integrity. The photo has been replaced with a properly adjusted copy and an editor’s note has been published here: http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2005-10-19-rice-congress_x.htm. The photo did not appear in the USA TODAY newspaper.

    The editors of USATODAY.com will make every effort to ensure that something like this doesn’t happen again.

  4. Does that guy’s job really entail surfing the internet for random blogs talking about USA today? Can we somehow invite that guy to the Ashley Silverthorne party?

  5. Ashley is classier than that guy will ever be.. she would have nothing to do with him.

  6. USA Today should do a story on the plight of the single mom whores. Sure, they’re clean and condom-using, but are they happy? Are they?

  7. I’m sure USA today will be all over this kind of story. Talk about a classic case of rugged individualism and pulling yourself up by your own bootstraps. I think it’s time that Kinsey arranges a meeting between Ms. Silverthorne and President Bush. She can even advocate for the privitazation of Social Security.
