Lame: Bull Sperm in Your Hair Without Going to the Farm

Posted in Lame, News on October 28th, 2009 by admin

Wait, this says placenta right?

When it comes to beauty products, sometimes ignorance is bliss. Snake venom, bird droppings, snail serum, cow dung and whale vomit are but a few of the industry’s extreme and off-putting ingredients that one might be shocked to know can be slathered about your body.

Hair products are no exception to this somewhat creepy phenomenon. Consumers hoping for a hair miracle are willing to pay extra for deep conditioners and conditioning “treatments” that promise an enviable crowning glory — even when they contain rather odd-seeming ingredients such as placenta, caviar and hemp.

Lame: Jailhouse shoving match more exciting than it really was

Posted in Comedy, Funny, Lame, News, Satire on October 13th, 2009 by admin

Madoff, serving 150 years at the Butner, NC, federal prison, was heard last week getting into a heated debate over the state of the market with another senior-citizen jailbird.

The shouting match got so heated that the inmate pushed Madoff, who shoved back harder with both hands, causing his attacker to stumble.

As the attacker tried to stand up straight, Madoff hovered over him red-faced and glaring, eyewitnesses said.

Quick Post: Why HuffPo Matters

Posted in Uncategorized on June 29th, 2009 by admin

Today I received an e-mail from Air America Radio with the teaser:

Pitney-gate: Why Is Huffington Post Getting Called On At White House Pressers?

First I have to say it’s a teaser because I saw no mention of this story in the actual e-mail. Secondly, maybe it has something to do with the huge sum of money recently invested in the Huffington Post ($15 million!), money which didn’t come from the White House and the taxpayer.

Why not reward an American company that is out there doing it without asking for a bailout and a media company that isn’t about to go under? (see: American Newspapers) Now this isn’t the reason that Obama called on Pitney, it was because they knew he had a real question. But the above is just my 2 cents.

via China to require PCs with software to block sites: report | Technology | Internet | Reuters .

Lame: Not Being Able To Look @ Pr0n (sorry single Chinese men!)

Posted in Clip, Lame, News, Politics on June 8th, 2009 by admin

Of course we know China doesn’t really want to block porn, they want to block Tiananmen Square related history pages:

Chinas government wants all PCs sold in the country from July 1 to be loaded with software that blocks certain websites, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday.

The paper cited the software’s main developer as saying the primary target was pornography, and added that the government said it was to protect young people from “harmful” content.

Lame: Man sues book over his world record of suing people

Posted in Lame, News on May 26th, 2009 by admin

Good move buddy…

The “Lawsuit Zeus,” also known as “Johnny Sue-nami,” filed a lawsuit this week in federal court seeking an injunction to stop the Guinness Book of World Records from naming him as the person who has filed the most lawsuits in the history of mankind.

…

Riches alleges that Guinness is planning to print false information about the number of lawsuits he has filed, which he says is more than 4,000 worldwide. And he objects to the names Guinness intends to call him, including: “The litigator crusader,” the “duke of lawsuits,” “Johnny Sue-nami,” “Sue-per-man” and the “Patrick Ewing of suing.”

I think he’s suing over the term “Patrick Ewing of suing” – who wants to be compared to Patrick Ewing?

via The Associated Press: Cocaine test prompts Red Bull removal in Germany.

Lame: Red Bull Gives You Wings, But Not Enough Cocaine To Do Anything

Posted in Lame, News on May 26th, 2009 by admin

The German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment says there isn’t enough cocaine in Red Bull to actually do anything, so why is it in there?

Six German states have told retailers to stop selling Red Bull Cola energy drinks after a test found a trace amount of cocaine.

The bans started Friday after a sample test conducted by authorities in North Rhine-Westphalia state found 0.4 micrograms per liter in the drink.

Five other states also banned it from shops amid concerns over possible narcotics law violations.

via GPS Could Fail Next Year, Warns GAO — GPS — InformationWeek.

Lame: Losing a War Because You Can’t Get Your Sh*t Together

Posted in Lame, News, Rant on May 20th, 2009 by admin

According to the GAO GPS may go dark next year;

It’s unclear whether the U.S. Air Force will be able to acquire new satellites in time to prevent disruption in GPS service for military and civilian users, according to the report.

The GAO said that the Air Force has struggled in recent years to stay within cost and scheduling constraints while building GPS satellites. So far, one satellite program has incurred cost overruns of $870 million and the launch of its first satellite has been pushed back three years to November 2009

Of course some idiot has the idea to make the service private – because that always solves the world’s problems. Maybe he would want the service managed by a Chinese firm? It’s managed by the Air Force for a reason (even without Selective Availability in play):

“Hand it over to a private firm, using ongoing accountability in both system performance and cost efficiencies as benchmarks.”

Once you hand it over to a private firm you’ll start seeing fee’s to access the GPS satellites. And they would be able to charge whatever they like since they would be the only ones with access to the GPS satellite network. Privatizing is not always a good idea. We’re already paying for the satellites through taxes, we don’t need another fee just to access them.

via Statue of former president loses head in Ohio.

Lame: Someone Rips Off Bart Simpson’s Beheading Prank

Posted in Lame, News on May 18th, 2009 by admin

A stunt directly copied from The Simpsons episode number 7G07 “The Telltale Head” where Bart beheads the statue of the Springfield founder Jebediah Springfield. Of course, in the show the statue appeared to be copper or bronze, maybe Hiram College shouldn’t have used sandstone. Also, the person should have realized that Bart has horrible nightmares after committing the act.

I bet it’s a bong in a dorm room somewhere. An awesome bong that looks like President Garfield.

Someone has beheaded a statue of President James Garfield that was installed last week at an Ohio college.

Hiram College spokesman Shawn Brown says the vandalism was discovered Friday morning, just a day after the sandstone statue was dedicated on the campus in Hiram, 30 miles southeast of Cleveland.

Brown says the college is hoping the head will be recovered so the 95-year-old statue can be restored, but police have no leads in their investigation.
