I'm doing the question even though I just did one. Dragonrane's busy on other stuff.
Michael J. Fox had a political ad during the world series in St. Louis urging people to vote for candiates that supported stem cell research.
I think that's incredibly selfish and whiny. His main reason for wanting more stem cell reseach i because he wants to be magically cured. I can respect that, but to go on tv and ask people to vote a certain way because you want to be magically cured is just self serving. What do you think?

Heros (monday at nine on NBC) is the coolest thing ever since the last coolest thing ever! Things are starting to look up for me and my kingdom of dorkdom! Heros! Avatar: the last airbender!
Final Fantasy 12!
I've set a goal for myself! I accidentally started final fantasy tactics a few days ago then saw that final fantasy 12 is coming october 31. You can't play two games at once and you can't start another before you finished the last one. So, I have eight days to beat tactics! The clock is ticking!
Have no fear! Am I not the caged lightning? Did not the ancient scrolls foretell of my victory over all things Squaresoft? The game clock says I've been playing for roughly eight hours and I'm in the second chapter with five teleporting ninja knights. I have to work all day, but by the time I go to bed Tuesday I'll be starting chapter three with five teleporting ninja knights that cure themselves whenever they get hit!
Who dares doubt the ancient scrolls?!

I was watching ER this morning and I saw an ad for a toothbrush. I could almost swear I heard it say it had an onboard computer. A toothbrush with a computer inside. Why would a toothbrush need a computer?
This week's question. Is our society becoming too technological? Are we getting too dependent and entwined in all our fancy gadgets whose only purpose is to jingle bad Justin Timberlake songs and take bad pictures of Lindsey Lohan?

This isn't the week's question. Mr.222's in charge of that this week. The following is part of an actual conversation I had with Headmaster today. I had just read on drudgereport a headline about a boyfriend cutting off his girlfriend's head and then cooking her. Yeah, I know...

Me-Did you see this man? "Man decapitates and cooks girlfriend"?
Him-No, but I can't say I'm terribly surprised.
Me-What the hell is happening to the world? Everyone's going fuckin' crazy.
Him-No, everyone's always been insane. Now we just hear about it more.
Me-Naaa...I don't know man.
Him-These things have always been going on. Husbands have always been cheating on their wives and plotting how to get rid of them with their mistresses. Mothers have always been
killing their kids because they can't take the screaming anymore. Young women have always been marrying eighty year old men for money. The only difference now is media coverage.
Me-Media coverage?
Him-Dude, we've got five 24 hour news networks on our tv and we don't even get that good big city cable. They each gotta fill all that time somehow. And don't get me started on the internet.
Me-huh.....I guess that makes sense. Who's idea was 24 hour news anyway?
Him-If memory serves the first was CNN. Started by Ted Turner.
Me-Does that make him some kind of herald of evil?
Him-I've been saying it since 96. Maybe now you'll see that when I say something it's not just because I enjoy the feeling of my lips moving.
Me-So what's the solution then? Don't watch the tv news?
Him-Listen to the radio. They only give you sixty seconds of news once every hour. That should keep you informed and mostly mentally undamaged. You'd have to listen to Justin Timberlake though, so you might want to just blow your brains out now and save yourself some time.

Here he went into the kitchen to make himself a sandwich. After a moment I heard the radio come on.

I'm watching Doom on tv right now. I know it's a sci-fi action movie, but no marine would act like these guys.

Here's the scenerio coming through your stereo. The rest of the crew has abandoned the ship via the lifepods and gotten away to a safe distance. You stayed behind on the bridge to make sure they enemy doesn't get access to the central computer. When they break down the doors and rush in
what do you say right before to set off the nuke sitting right behind you?

This week's question. Why the hell is this popular?

London Bridge

oh shit, oh shit, oh shit
when i come to the clubs, step aside
pop the seeds, don't be hating me in the line
v.i.p because you know i gotta shine
i'm fergie ferg
give me love you long time

all my girls get down on the floor
back to back drop it down real low
i'm such a lady but i'm dancing like a ho
because you know what, i don't give a fuck
so here we go!

(chorus (x2))
how come every time you come around
my london london bridge want to go down
like london london london want to go down
like london london london be going down

drinks start pouring
my speech start slurring
everybody start looking real good

the grey goose got the girl feeling loose
now i wishing that i didn't wear these shoes
it's like everytime i get up on the dude
paparazzi put my business in the news
and i'm gonna get up out my face (oh, shit)
before i turn around and spray your ass with mace (oh, shit)
my lips make you want to have a taste (oh, shit)
you got that? i got the bass

(chorus x2)

Hey everyone! Dragonrane really gets mad when it's your turn to do the weekly question and you don't. I couldn't think up a good one. How about this. What would you want to be doing while
Bitter Sweet Symphony was playing? Like if you were doing something cool and you had someone to follow you around with a boom box.
I'd want to be walking down main street with shirt on that said ' no, you the man' and giving everyone who smiled at me the thumbs up.
