Joe’s Blog!

Check out the new server at: MUNG. It’s pretty dope.

This could go on my tech blog but I it fits in here under the “weird shit” category. Here is what I got:

“mauve umbrella. The vile Faggot, who was none other than Koroviev, shouted : ‘There, ladies and gentlemen, is your revelation for you, as requested so insistently by Arkady Apollonich!’ ‘How dare you hit Arkady Apollonich, you little baggage? ‘ said the wife grimly, rising in the box to her full gigantic height. The young girl was seized with another outburst of Satanic laughter. ‘I’ve as much right,’ she replied laughing, ‘ to hit him as you have! ‘ A second dull crack was heard as another umbrella bounced off Arkady Apollonich’s head. ‘Police! Arrest her! ‘ roared Madame Sempleyarov in a terrifying voice. Here the cat bounded up to the footlights and announced in a human voice : ‘That concludes the evening! Maestro! Finale, please! ‘ The dazed conductor, scarcely aware of what he was doing, waved his baton and the orchestra struck up, or rather murdered a disorganised excuse for a march, normally sung to obscene but very funny words. However, it was quickly gskok tkrksjgk sjjmgkg krk p jg kikfkg j ggjknkik f sdjksdfsdfsdlgkj sdflkjsdf lksdjfsdfsdf”

I don’t have a clue. Quiet possibly the funniest email I have gotten in a while.

While not as devistating as in the past this one left me trying to figure out how he got up there.

Nothing but trouble.

I never thought I would talk about the Hiltons on my blog but this was too good to pass up. Apparently they are starting their own Saturday morning cartoon. Good for them and the entrepreneurial spirit I suppose, but I figure the last thing kids need today is more materialistic influences.

Seriousness aside here are some humorous preliminary drawings I found:

Life has been noneventful as far as the blog goes. That is nothing much to post about, just work, some riding, some running and attempts at getting pleanty of sleep.

Disclaimer: If you decide to read it, this sudo-review shouldn’t spoil it for you.

Other than that, I just finished reading book called Confessions of an Economic Hit Man by John Perkins. It was quite good. It basically gives an overview of his career as a cheif economist at a large engineering firm. His job was to basically analyize LDCs (lesser developed countries) that may hold significance to the US government. He would then pitch an overblown infrastructure package to the country that they would pay for using US government loans. The country would eventually be so far in debt that the US would then have enormous pull regarding policy and laws in that country. All the while he was employed by an engineering firm that reaps the benefits of these programs because they are hired to do the work for the US government. Sound outlandish? Sound confusing? He makes a pretty good case for himself (as this non-fiction) and makes it an easy read. I give it 4 out of 5 gold stars, he loses one star because he gets a little whinny near the end feeling bad about what he had done.
