Freaky Picture









In the "news":

A hunter near Baton Rouge says he found this freaky photo on his deer stand camera.

The hunting camera was broken but the memory card was still there and so was this bizarre image.

For some reason this was cropped. The original image is even freakier:

Sticky Whopper



Try the new Sticky Whopper at Burger King. It's just like a regular Whopper only instead of the usual sesame seed bun, the Sticky Whopper is topped with a warm, gooey cinnamon roll. Make sure you have plenty of napkins handy.

(WARNING: Not a real product. If you go to Burger King and ask for a Sticky Whopper you might get something else.)

Faceblocked!

I am pissed off because my Facebook account just got deleted.

After I tried to log in I checked my email to find a warning that was sent a few hours prior to my account being deleted:

You uploaded a photo that violates our Terms of Use, and this photo has been removed. Facebook does not allow photos that attack an individual or group, or that contain nudity, drug use, violence, or other violations of the Terms of Use. These policies are designed to ensure Facebook remains a safe, secure and trusted environment for all users, including the many children who use the site.
I can't think of what might have caused such alarm. Could it be the picture I made of BP CEO Tony Hayward in Jail? Could it be the admittedly stupid BP Megamaid anti-motivational poster I made? I have heard of people and groups getting their accounts deleted over criticism of BP but I don't think that is the case. I think it was probably the Texas Schoolbook Massacre poster I made which shows "Leatherneck" wearing a cross around his neck sawing through a history book with a chain saw. (See my previous posts for images.)

I recently joined a group which claims evolution is false in an attempt to educate the people there about it. Of course, every intellectual knows that trying to explain evolution to creationists is as futile as finding the non-fiction section in a Christian book store but I thought I would weigh in anyway. I even added a few creationists as friends in hopes that I might have some good laughs. Now, a few days later, my account has been deleted. I don't think that Facebook normally deletes an account based on a single complaint so I have a hypothesis as to how this might have happened. Christians have a way of making stupid things go viral. All it takes is one Christian to send an e-mail about some little thing that they find offensive and in minutes a small fire can turn into a raging inferno of ignorance.

I'm hoping that the Facebook team will get back to me soon and let me know exactly how I violated their terms. It is a bit ironic to me that all of this would happen at the threshold of Independence Day weekend.

My friends call me "Solo"


I found this outside of my son's elementary school.

I'm thinking there's a reason why this guy is called "Solo"


I submitted it to Found Magazine. I guess we'll see if they publish it.

Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy

One thing vampire children have to be taught early on is, don't run with wooden stakes.

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, you'll be a mile from them, and you'll have their shoes.

I believe in making the world safe for our children, but not our children's children, because I don't think children should be having sex.

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

Maybe in order to understand mankind we have to look at that word itself. MANKIND. Basically, it's made up of two separate words "mank"and "ind." What do these words mean? It's a mystery and that's why so is mankind.

As the light changed from red to green to yellow and back to red again, I sat there thinking about life. Was it nothing more than a bunch of honking and yelling? Sometimes it seemed that way.
