Paging Dr. Brigham


Space elevator ... and the next floor is outer space

An elevator ride into space could become more than sci-fi fantasy, thanks to a British breakthrough

Ever since it was first popularised by Arthur C Clarke, the idea of a “space elevator” has languished in the realms of science fiction. But now a team of British scientists has taken the first step on what could be a high-tech stairway to heaven.

Told ya! It's my way to the spaceway!

Oh, Did I Neglect



To show you the Watchmen Hoodies?

Glycon weeps.

Teach Your Children Well



Ung Pirat, or ‘Young Pirate’, is the youth organization associated with the Swedish pirate party. Yesterday it was a big day for the group, getting 1,325,744 Swedish Krona (Approx €121,900, or $161,700 US) from the national board for youth affairs. The amount is based on a membership count of around 1280 members, but with current membership of around 4,872, next years amount should be even greater.

Giving money to terrorists! Well I never!

Who Pays the Paymasters?



Picture Disc?

Although I am made uneasy by the sight of Watchmen Hoodies, this piece of swag gets credit for being era-appropriate.

May Glycon forgive me...

Getting Behind Your Product



Because you openly advertize that it blows chunks.

"'4d' if you're wasted," indeed.

Not as wasted as the exec who thought that tagline was "edgy" and "hip," though.

Seriously?!?



Evidently a vote for Obama is a vote for holocaust.

Call me soft-headed, but it seems to me it is actually "strong and decisive" leaders that are behind genocides.

I also remind the "Republican Jewish Coalition" that FDR was neither weak nor naive, and the Holocaust still occurred.
