The Sh*t L*st

Another Caturday has come and gone, but not without animated gifs:

I do a lot of work at my computer and I like to have a simple game running in the background that I can check with every once in a while to break the monotony. Free Cell is great for that, but I'm getting a little sick of it, so I thought I'd brush up my poker game a little bit and pick up a decent Texas Hold'em game.

Bought this at Target for $10. It says on the label "No Limit" but the amount you can actually bet is fixed. What a joke. Tried to return it, but because it's software and it had been opened, Target wouldn't take it back. So I just dumped it in the trash and am going to order a real game, like this one:

Poker Academy v2.0

Don't buy any of those $10 games at Target. They're utter crap. Just order a used game online.

Nothing happens on the internet on Saturday but sports scores.

I remember back when I worked as a money changer. Nothing gave me greater pleasure than seeing the look on Canadians' faces when I told them their mighty Loonie was worth 63¢ or 64¢ in real world money.

Now this. It's a fucking national disgrace. At this rate, we'll be able to put Bush's face on the US peso.

From Serge Gainsbourg's Universal Music site:



I can't think of a better way to dishonor a great iconoclast's memory, or simply vandalize a website.

The Tan provided the soundtrack for the lo-fi surf movie, Off The Wall 2, my friends and I used to watch all the time back in the 80s. This was a band that was ahead of its time. There was one song, Bad Party, that I always remembered. But I found a clip from the movie on Youtube with another great song on it. Like a cross between Social D and The Monkees. Here's the link:

We're Hanging Out - The Tan (Off The Wall 2)

I could never figure out the appeal of Youtube. Maybe it was because they filtered out all the porn. Or because the Berlin Firewall at the office blocks it.

Then the other day I wanted to see some video of the 2004 tsunami. And I figured it out. You have to find your niche. Here are some of my favorite niches:
