I discovered something yesterday that has made me decide that I hate Hotmail. It’s a good thing I don’t use their web interface unless I’m really stuck. I got a frantic call from a friend who isn’t the most computer literate sort in the world. “All I want to do is send a message from …

Leave Me Alone Or I’ll Use My Batoddler!
That would have been quite the day on the subway. A woman got in a fight with another passenger, and decided to use a rather unorthodox weapon in the fight…that’d be her kid. She picked the poor kidlet out of her stroller and started swinging the poor kid at her victim. She also pulled the …
Garage? Toilet? What’s The Difference?
This story brings back memories of the old story of Austin Horries Purifoy A woman heard her garage door slam, and her dog bark. Then she saw a naked man in her garage. So she called police. By the time they got there, they found the drunk, naked man had taken a big ol’ crapperoo …
Roselle Is Gone
I just heard this a couple of days ago. Everybody and their brother’s cousin’s sister’s uncle has heard the story of Michael Hingson and his guide dog Roselle, and how they not only got out of the World Trade Centre on September 11, 2001, but how they helped others too. Well, she has passed away …
It’s Me! Remember Me?
I’m feeling all frazzled so maybe if I ramble, I can unfrazzle myself. I’m sitting here, time’s going tick tock, and my brain is screaming at a fever pitch “You have so many things to do! Do them! Do them now!” At the same time, an equally loud voice yells “But you either don’t have …
A Heated Battle Over Rent Money
When we lived in our old place waaaay back in the days when Steve’s laundry basket was stolen and drunks came for an unintended sleepover, we used to joke that the owner of our building was a mobster. It’s a good thing we were never late with rent. Otherwise, this may have happened to us. …
I Only Have One Word. Headnova
Ug. The things people can persuade others to believe. The latest ridiculousness is an email stating that calls received on cellphones from certain numbers which appear in red when they call will cause the recipient’s brain to hemorrhage. I think my head just exploded, but not because of any cell phone call from any number …
So Was The Tank His Chrisco Hamper?
Well, it looks like we know who was hanging out in the toilet tank, and it wasn’t our old, er, buddy. We now know that his name is Luke Chrisco, and he’s really, really, really weird. Where do I even begin? He wants to be a porn star. He calls himself a worshipper of women. …
What’s That, The Creepy Pervert Pose?
This story about a man hiding in a portable toilet tank at a yoga festival made me think of Our buddy ol’ pal Gary Moody. We don’t know if this guy is him, but I’m very curious. A woman went in to use the facilities, and noticed something moving in the tank. She left and …
Real-Feeling Unreality
A couple of people who I follow on Twitter were sending this around. I thought I’d link it here. Watch this video, and get an idea of what it feels like to have severe auditory and visual hallucinations. What uber weirded me out was someone knocked on my actual door at the spot where it …
