Mr. President, MR. PRESIDENT!!!
My ole' high school buddy Tristan has started a website:
"A while back I had an idea for a web magazine that would combine political,
social, and cultural commentary with reviews of music, movies, books, TV,
etc., all geared toward a young, intelligent audience fluent in pop culture
but looking for serious opinion pieces, annoyed that most media outlets are
either braindead or stodgy... "
While I don't agree with his politics, it's still worth a read. Be easy on him, he's a lawyer.... and after all... he will be president one day and I still want my title: "U.S. Ambassador for Frivolous Gaming."

Funny as all hell
Go to Google.com.
Type in the search terms, "French military victories".
Click "I'm feeling Lucky".
I sunk down low in my chair when I read this
Ah Mason...
As one who attended said university and was in the computer science program... I'd like to point out something they missed: Most of the people in those "high-tech" programs at Mason are NOT American. They have different rules of ettiquette and table manners... I'm sure all the ethiopian graduates are looking back at the faces of disgust with a face of total horror as the other people at the table use the poo-hand to shovel food in their mouth.
Ok, you got me... I just wanted to find a way to work in the phrase: poo-hand.
Still celebrating diversity...

"Pirates are the thinking man's monkey," states Ryan Yount, author of the essay "Pirates Are the New Monkeys," which is included in the first issue of Scurvy Dogs, a comic book which he and video game producer Andrew Boyd wrote early this year, just in time, they say, to exploit the brewing pirate zeitgeist.
"I mean, sure, monkeys will always be funny," says Yount, stretching out on a stylish couch in Isotope: The Comic Book Lounge, where he works part time, "by virtue of the fact they are, well, monkeys. But pirates. Pirates have a whole world to draw from.
"Think about it: A monkey puts on clothes, and it's funny. A monkey gives you the finger, pulls out a gun, eats his own shit, it's funny. Pirates can do all that, and more. Pirates are very easy to adapt to humor."

Console battle rages on...
For anyone keeping tabs: Nvidia has made nice with Microsoft and will continue to work with them on the new XBox2 (great name huh?) and in more recent news, ATI is going to support the next Nintendo Game Cube. This leaves Sony to work by themselves as they always have.
I find this interesting only because it'll take major attention away from Sony for a while. As if there weren't enough race wars over ATI vs Nvidia... and XBox vs Playstation, now (brilliantly I might add) Nintendo is jumping back into the game by pissing diesel onto the fire and teaming up with ATI. I can't wait until all the geeks draw their lines in the sand and start the nvidia / Xbox roooolz! No way! ATI / Nintendo is the shiznitz!
Meanwhile, Sony is no where to be seen... apparently playing with distributed networked gaming systems built on Linux of all things in their secret lab in some deep, dark basement.
This should get interesting.
