| Bullseyeart has lots of astounding cartoons. Miss Muffy and the Muff Mob combines hiphop, gratuitous foul language and Strawberry Shortcake; Internet, the Animated Series is a baffling homage to Thunderbirds; and Porkchops should be only be taken with extreme caution. Then there's The Woodcutter. to Web by fuzzeli |

AboveGod, which is basically more of the same. It's still all about the time cube and the evils of one day. He has added racism and anti-semitism to the mix for the first time, though. to Wackos by keith |

| Are you tired of the major networks' talking-head coverage of this year's election featuring NBC's Tom Brokaw, ABC's Peter Jennings, CBS's Dan Rather, or PBS' Jim Lehrer?
You may want to try Comedy Central's Indecision 2000, featuring the nation's most famous impotent ex-Presidential hopeful Bob Dole, or Annanova, billed as the 'world's first virtual newscaster' for a change of pace. to Television by rich |

| The first UNIX servers I ever saw were on NeXT boxes named after the seven deadly sins. This helps me to remember them, but if you can't, you can get a t-shirt with animals characterizing each sin - "...what could possibly epitomize Couvetousness better than a frog?" Good question.
Now, do you remember the seven heavenly virtues? No? Me neither. to Religion by eclipse |

Fantasy and reality blur, as it's Burning Man time again. (?). I'm looking forward to the Giant Flaming Gerbil Shooter, acquiring a slave and possibly even enjoying my own funeral procession. The images are impressive but for pure cyberpunk value, you'll find me in the Thunderdome.

| Saturday Jul 29, 2000 | David Fincher's Fight Club is the first movie that does more than equal the novel it's based on, supplanting it entirely. Not a single idea is lost in the translation, and we are treated to new wrinkles (homosexual subtext) and juicy visual metaphors (insomniac flashes of Tyler as the only warm color against a sea of cool). And hey, have you noticed Act I is reminiscent of Harold & Maude, Act II of The Chocolate War? And both films star Bud Cort? Which I'm sure is coincidence. I mean, even if I'm too afraid to watch another Cort film rumored to have disquieting similarities to Fight Club's Act III, that wouldn't, you know, reveal a flaw in my comforting self-delusions, right? [nervous laughter] When I asked Tyler about it he made a disparaging remark about my cleverness and artfully changed the subject by punching me in the face. to Movies by cricket |

| If you're a mail admin and you really hate spam mail, you're probably familiar with the RBL list of spam tolerant mail relays. However, if you're the average user and you hate spam, there's only one way to go: msgto.com - the email service that stops all spam mail by requiring people who mail you to 'prove' that they are not software. to Internet by faisal |
