My Weird Obsessions of the Moment

Since I have a ravenous case of ADD, I find myself having weird obsessions over a certain period of time in my life. Since this is a blog where I put up stuff I can't think of putting up elsewhere, I'll post this baby here. For now, I'll relate one of my favorite obsessions at the moment...

Absinthe:


Yes, the infamous Green Fairy. No, I haven't had the drink, but I really wanna make it. I came across the rather amazing fact that it is actually legal to buy and possess Absinthe in the U.S., but you can't fly it to the States, nor can it be sold in liquor stores. Given these rules, no wonder so many people believe it's illegal even to have! Anyways, I've found a few sources to buy Absinthe, and even learn how to make your own. While I was reading the July '07 issue of Reason Magazine and came across an ad for this distributor. I also came across this page by the owner of the George Orwell's 1984-themed website Newspeak Dictionary and in his
Absinthe page he claims that the drink and his recipe for it are DoublePlus Good! So, at the moment, I've found the drink's pricings to be a little high for my taste. I intend to get the ingredients to make some of my own at some point soon, and hopefully have it in time for Halloween or Friday the 13th. Despite the claim that the drink makes you go insane, I have little to fear as the damage is done. If anyone has any tips or information, let me know!

Nappy Headed Ho's, Lookout! Imus May be Next!



So, it seems Opie and Anthony will return on XM Satellite Radio. Which is good, because if there's one thing people like me can't stand is when someone says something that pisses someone off, like say... some homeless guy talking about rape fantasies, they get off the air. See, I really don't give a shit what someone says on the radio, because frankly, if you're too goddamn stupid to change the channel on a SUBSCRIPTION radio network that you BOUGHT, then you're too fucking stupid to be comfortable anyways. No matter what anyone says, those nasty porno DVDs of firemen having sex with goats is not something that just came and snuck into your house. And as soon as someone tries to get the government, run by some of the biggest rapists, racists, and assorted shitheads that make me look compassionate and tolerant to dictate what's "decent" and what's "obscene", then you can throw any allowance of your opinions, jokes, or whatever you wish to say or do into a fucking garbage can. People have many different opinions and beliefs, and before we get all Fahrenheit 451 on everyone's ass, perhaps we need to accept that we're gonna come across stuff that'll hurt us. Because everyone gets a stick up their ass over something, and perhaps we need it once in a while. Maybe it won't hurt so bad after a while.
