| Dennis Tito wasn't the first person to buy his way to an earth orbit. Dr. Timothy Leary and Gene Roddenberry beat Tito by 4 years and are still up there and won't be coming down till 2004. Thanks to Celestis Inc you too can have a voyage of a lifetime, even to the moon, but there's one catch: you have to be cremated first. to Transportation by skallas |

| Sunday Jun 3, 2001 | Most people watch television for the shows. I watch television for the advertising.
Unlike the grueling half-hour shows, a good ad can tell a story in as little as thirty seconds.
Modern ads,
80's ads,
70's ads
saturday morning cereal commercials from the '60s and '70s,
soundtracks,
political ads,
Superbowl ads,
jingles,
soft drink,
British ads,
French ads,
foreign ads,
American actors in Japanese ads,
public service ads,
the best ads ever,
even that stupid Taco Bell chihuahua, I love them all!

| The Internet Archive is building a digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts in digital form, including an archive of the entire Web, Usenet, 2000 Presidential Election, and historical Arpanet documentation. One of the more fun collections is the movie archive which contains hundreds of movies from 1903 to the late 1970s which focus mainly on everyday life, culture, industry, and institutions in North America in the 20th century.

I'm still waiting for someone to write the an updated Kandy-Kolored
Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby that describes the
transition from Tom Wolfe's kar kustomizers to today's CPU overclockers. In the mean
time, I'm enjoying tales of computer-style hacks on the super-geeky Toyota Prius. Sadly,

| Star Wreck by Samuli Torssonen is what I would call a truly dedicated Star Trek parody. It started from bad computer animations, then moved to semi-decent 3D stuff and finally to the realm of live action and rather cool 3D stuff, with a full length DVD release expected later this year... to Movies by wwwwolf |
| Thursday May 31, 2001 | Did you really think that bad dirty poetry was a modern thing? (What about forgetting to use the "meta" tag?) Despite the American Constitution's First Amendment, certain other so-called "modern things" have banned the poetry they consider dirty. But wait -- dirty poetry's been around a long time. Its goddess, who goes by two names, was no stranger to Ancient Rome, particularly to Catullus, who had a verba cloaca (potty mouth). Among the more infamous bawdy Roman works are the Priapea, which is an 80-poem tribute to the phallic god Priapus, and Catullus's Mr. Penis epigrams. It should be noted that the Roman notion of sexuality focused not on the gender of the participants but on who took the active role and who the passive.
