Anything Else

Start here.

Too cool! 

Here is the latest I came across.

I randomly came across his blog, and have been reading it for a while. Start with this post. Warning: Some posts are difficult to understand, as the context is lost in sarcasm.

... A voice spoke, chillingly close. "Do not touch the computer again."

JacquesS froze, turning his head. The man was silhouetted in the door to the lab, with his body keeping the door from closing. "You should not have run that command." His accent was not easy to place. "Now tell me where it is."

"I told you already," the test manager stammered, kneeling defenseless on the floor of the lab. "I have no idea what you are talking about!"

"You are lying." The man stared at him, perfectly immobile except for a glint in his sleep-deprived eyes, and a nervous tic that made him tap his thumb and forefinger together repeatedly. His hair was slightly greasy. "You and your brethren possess a secret that is not yours."

JacquesS felt a surge of adrenaline. How could he possibly know this?

"Tonight the secret will be revealed and order restored. Tell me where it is hidden, and you will maintain your corporate network access."

JacquesS held up his hands in defense. "Wait," he said slowly, "I will tell you what you need to know." The test manager spoke his next words carefully. The lie he told was one he had rehearsed many timesâŚeach time praying he would not need to use it.

When the test manager had finished speaking, the man smiled smugly. "Yes. That is exactly what the others told me."

JacquesS recoiled. The others?

The Microsoft Code.

Savage Chickens: proving since Jan 2005 that you can be a cartoonist even if you almost can not draw.

My respect for him has increased. Link

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - A Mexican couple were recovering separately after a marital spat got out of control and saw them firing guns, throwing knives and hurling homemade bombs, Mexican daily Milenio said on Monday.

...

Espinosa told reporters he was glad his wife had suffered burns, while Contreras said she was only sorry she had not "hacked off his manhood" during the fight.

At Reuters Oddly Enough.

Wikipedia:

Reuben Lucius Goldberg (July 4, 1883 â December 7, 1970) was a cofounder and first president of the National Cartoonists Society. He is one of the most famous cartoonists in history. He earned lasting fame for his "Rube Goldberg machines"âdevices that are exceedingly complex and perform very simple tasks in a very indirect and convoluted way. He was posthumously awarded the National Cartoonist Society Gold Key Award in 1980.

This is too funny:

When some people receive an error from the compiler, they see it as an indication that they are doing something fundamentally wrong and should change their code. Others see such a message as a challenge to overcome and strive to find a way to trick or force the compiler to do what they want. You can probably guess what camp Jon's predecessors fell in ...

Public Structure UserInformation
 Shared intUserID As Integer
 Shared strUserID As String
 Shared Username As String
 Shared Realname As String
 Shared Token As String
 'Don't know why we need this, but won't compile without it
 Public PleaseCompile As Boolean
End Structure

And a note for the VB-deprived, Shared is the keyword for static.

Mr. Yoest's Ten Simple Rules for Dating My Daughter.

Rule Nine:
Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a middle-aged, gray-headed, dimwitted has-been. But on issues relating to my daughter, I am the all-knowing, merciless god of your universe. If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and a half acre behind the house. Do not trifle with me.

Absolutely hilarious, but Ayesha's parents are worse. Alone on our first New Year eve together. :-(

I could have picked a selection of best quotes from there, but I am feeling lazy.
