A Bottle and a Friend
There’s nane that’s blest of human kind,
But the cheerful and the gay, man,
Fal, la, la, etc.
Here’s a bottle and an honest friend!
What wad ye wish for mair, man?
Wha kens, before his life may end,
What his share may be o’ care, man?
Then catch the moments as they fly,
And use them as ye ought, man:
Believe me, happiness is shy,
And comes not aye when sought, man.

Alltop will be raisin’ a wee dram this evening in honour of his birthday.
This is a scream
He survived a tour of duty in Afghanistan. He’s tough. He’s a marine. But Adam was not prepared for the lying ways of the carnies operating the Giant Slingshot.
Alltop screams like a little girl too! Video via Reddit
Grocery Store Robots by Patton Oswalt
Patton Oswalt, making the case for not using the grocery store robot. I wouldn’t mind having one of those cool robots for myself though.
Check out Patton Oswalt’s website here for touring dates and news.
Alltop is a robot too, but don’t tell it, it thinks it’s human.
Joining the SOPA bandwagon
As someone who loves the web, and needs it, even with its problems, I really hope you guys in the States can stop SOPA. Here’s The Oatmeal’s take on it:
Want to help in the fight against SOPA / PIPA? First, go learn about the bills. After that go contact your elected officials. Wikipedia has a handy-dandy page set up which allows you to locate your state representative.
Alltop loves kittens too!
The five second rule
It was the best game of zenball ever, and the crowd was wild with excitement: the whisper of butterfly wings was deafening.
The Rotrovra Koan Kangaroos had just scored their first all-in kensho, and the Targenville Half-Lotus Lions replied with a double-satori. The Roos launched a full-out dharma walk, but they were unable to penetrate the Lions’ impressive grasp of paradox.
The Roos had to do something or the Lions would surely win. The hush of the field filled with the deadly susurration of arrows, as they invoked the five second rule.
Afterwards, only the voice of a bamboo flute.
