Seven things

  1. Can Cheeseburger-in-a-Can possibly be any good? “No. Oh dear sweet shrieking Lord, no.”
  2. Sigma Phi Epsilon clearly does not give their brothers enough to do. But the big question: what happens when the iPhone hits 10,000 hours? They didn’t check? Wusses.
  3. Who do you want answering the phone at 3 AM? Brilliant spoof of Clinton ad.
  4. $31 million stolen from airport baggage while under TSA watch. Can we just give up on the whole “TSA keeps us safe” thing now? If criminals can take things out of the bags, then criminals can put things into the bags.
  5. Note to thieves: if you must rob a community organization, try to avoid bikers.
  6. The Billboard Liberation Front today announced a major new advertising improvement campaign executed on behalf of clients AT&T and the National Security Agency. Focusing on billboards in the San Francisco area, this improvement action is designed to promote and celebrate the innovative collaboration of these two global communications giants.

    Billboard Liberation Front web site highly recommended for its uncanny spoof of marketing firms.

  7. I think I’ve neglected to mention the excellent webcomic Basic Instructions. This is excerpted from December 12th, “How to Destroy Society”; collect them all!

  1. Um…Jeff? The article suggests that the TSA folks are the ones who stole the $31 million in articles from people’s bags. And yes, I think everyone agrees that a TSA employee has the right access to blow up planes if he/she wishes…

  2. Yes, which implies to me that since the TSA is hiring people who shouldn’t have access to our baggage, the entire point that the TSA acts to keeps us safe looks largely like a charade.

  3. OK, there we agree. I just don’t know how you get from there to “criminals can put things into bags” unless, again, you’re suggesting that we’re at risk of TSA employees blowing up planes. If that’s the case, then yes – we are once again in agreement…
