Lunch Hour Veg

supertrooperspic.jpg

Anyone seen Beerfest? It's taken in over 20 million, so at least a few of you like the frat brother, bathroom humor kind of stuff. Me...can't get enough of it. And if you like Beerfest, you probably love Super Troopers, as both were produced by the comedy geniuses at Broken Lizard. These guys actually went to my school, and around the same time too. Didn't know them though. Yet, I still bring it up to somehow seem cool by association.

Anyway, check out a few scenes from Super troopers...funny stuff.

Another day...another terror bust.

2102defenceb.jpg

From today's news...Denmark arrests 9 in terror sweep. Obviously, I'm relieved police are stopping these plots before they're successful. Still, has anyone noticed how many of these there have been lately? Let's count...

June 3, 2006: Canadian police arrest 17 people planning to commit a series of terrorist attacks in southern Ontario.
June 23, 2006: Seven people in custody in Florida in connection with a plot against the Sears Tower.
July 7, 2006: Plot to bomb NYC's Holland Tunnel in an effort to flood the financial district uncovered by the FBI.
Aug 10, 2006: Scotland Yard disrupts plot to blow up planes in flight from the UK to the US and commit mass murder.
Sept 1, 2006: 14 people arrested on suspicion of running terrorist training camps across Britain.
Sept 3, 2006: Four Men Arrested in British Terror Camp Sweep Under Spanish Surveillance for some time.
Sept 5, 2006: Police in Denmark arrest nine people suspected of plotting a terror attack with explosives.

About three months ago, I came across a YouTube video by a guy named Alex Jones. Many of you may know him, but I had no idea who he is. He says he predicted 9/11 months before it happened, and tried to warn people about it. I didn't pay any attention because he comes off kinda crazy (then again, I probably do, too) Read his wikipedia entry, and he REALLY comes off as crazy. But in this video, he mentions another attack is coming, and it will be prefaced by a string of terror arrests, just in time for the '06 elections.

Not making any judgements, just noticing a coincidence. No one wants to be accused of being Chicken Little. Then again, being an ostrich isn't so great, either.

Jellio pointed out how anything can be funny when its speeded up and scored with the Benny Hill theme song (Yakety Sax). How about hotel security camera footage of a hooker ripping off a naked guy? (via Arbroath)

While we're on the subject of firepower.

Ever been in a tight situation, surrounded by hordes of paparazzi, and asked yourself "What would Paris shoot"? Happens to me at least four times a day. It's times like these when a good leopard print or rhinestone-studded beauty from Antonio Riello really comes in handy.

Top Five on Tuesday

It's a jungle out there, and you're no Dirty Harry. This stuff won't help, but it may distract them while you run.


- Have you seen the Philippe Starck gun lamp collection at Moss? This is probably where he got the idea.
- How ballsy do you have to be to take this bag through airport security? Without hairgel, of course.
- I'm thinking this wouldn't be a good back-to-school gift. Would get through the metal detector, though.
- Now this is a badass fashion statement. A little dangerous and slightly crazy, but pretty damn badass.
- Ok, all this violence is starting to get to me. Time for a nice hot cup of tea in this heart-shaped cup.

- Clint's latest film via its Japanese trailer. Mr. Eastwood recreates the Battle of Iwo Jima in Flags of our Fathers.
- Haven't posted a game in a while, so how about a weird one where you destroy asteroids by spelling them backwords.
- The writers of this Family Guy Miss USA Pageant clip obviously had home movies from my college strip club days.
- Reading the story about stations refusing to air a 9/11 documentary because of cursing firemen reminds me of this.
- And in honor of the recently departed Mr. Irwin, a funny South Park clip illustrating how much people loved him.

The History of the Vibrator

From the website:
Hysteria is a term that was first coined by Hippocrates and described a medical condition peculiar to women; he considered it to be a symptom of irregular blood-movement from the uterus to the brain. The idea lasted through most of history, and in 1653 appears the first text that shows that the doctors of the era were using clitoral stimulation as a remedy for the nebulous ailment. Because of the limited technology of the time, this therapy had to be conducted by hand … er, uh … manually … A-HEM! … you get the point … anyway, this could be quite tiring for the doctors and midwives. The goal of treatment was for the patient to reach “paroxysm” which could take up to an hour to attain, but once reached would/should/could relieve hysterical symptoms for a while. When a treatment takes an hour of manual stimulation, of course doctors are going to try to find a gadget or device to make things easier.

I guess it should go without saying that this article left me hysterical. So to speak. You’ll see lots more obscure history today at Miss Cellania.
