"We can't repel geekiness of this magnitude!"
Will a "Star Wars" character be the new Ole Miss mascot?
Not if some Rebel fans get their way.
On Tuesday, Ole Miss students voted to find a new mascot to replace the abandoned Colonel Reb. A student committee will soon form to develop and propose a new mascot.
Admiral Ackbar, a member of the Mon Calamari species who led the Rebel Alliance ships into the Battle of Endor, appears to be the early favorite. He has more than 14,000 Facebook fans. Websites like notatrap.org -- "It's a trap!" was his famous line -- are promoting Ackbar's candidacy.
But members of the Ackbar alliance have taken some incoming fire. Angry students have contacted them and threatened to transfer if the alien rebel becomes the new face of Ole Miss, his supporters told the entertainment Web site TMZ.
The group even heard from parents of current and prospective students -- with some threatening to "never send their kids to Ole Miss" if the Admiral wins out, TMZ reported.
The folks at notatrap.org have soldiered on: "Who wants a Colonel when you could have an Admiral?" the Web site asks, before launching into "The Story of Ole Miss Ackbar."

Ackbar is indeed a rebel...wonder if LucasArts will become the evil empire of litigation if this goes thru? Hehehe!

Man electrocuted by urinating on power line
This guy survived crashing into the power pole but nature's call got him. Heard this on the news last night and thought it was a joke at first. But... it's not.
MONTESANO, Wash. –
An Elma man was killed by accidentally urinating on a downed power line after a one-car crash near Montesano.
Grays Harbor County sheriff's Deputy Dave Pimentel said Monday that 50-year-old Roy Messenger was not seriously hurt after he collided with a power pole Friday night and called a relative to pull his car out of the ditch.
When family members arrived they found Messenger electrocuted. Pimentel says Messenger apparently urinated into a roadside ditch but didn't see the live wire.
Pimentel says there will be an autopsy, but burn marks indicated the way the electricity traveled through the body.

[1995] Newsweek declared the Internet won't last
This article was passed on from a friend. It's from 1995 but it's funny to look at it 15 years later and laugh. Some highlights:
Nicholas Negroponte, director of the MIT Media Lab, predicts that we’ll soon buy books and newspapers straight over the Intenet. Uh, sure.
Even if there were a trustworthy way to send money over the Internet–which there isn’t–the network is missing a most essential ingredient of capitalism: salespeople.

Way to FAIL Newsweek.

Tiger IPhone Application
Does it count if I heard it yesterday?
I find it sad that in this day and age, people are "helping" others cheat on spouses. IPhone has released a new application, which they swear was named before the whole Tiger Woods scandal, to help people cheat on their spouses. Apparently the application erases messages and voicemails in as soon as a minute after receiving it. They make it hard for you to trace your spouse's love interests.
It's pretty sad, in my eyes. I'm sure some people will get a kick out of it, though.

Man 'chopped his virgin wife's head off because she refused to have children' Read m
A postal inspector went on trial in France today accused of chopping his wife’s head off because she refused to have children.
Philippe Cousin, 53, said he suffered a ‘mid life crisis’ when he approached his half century without a son or daughter.
He blamed it on his 47-year-old wife, Nicole, who was still a virgin despite having been married to him for more than 21 years.
Philippe Cousin has confessed to killing his wife of 21 years after she refused to have children with him
Philippe Cousin has confessed to killing his wife of 21 years after she refused to have children with him
On April 16th 2007, Cousin telephoned his local police station in Arras, northern France, and told an officer: ‘Excuse me for disturbing you, I’ve killed my wife.’
In a fit of rage following a domestic argument, he had taken a kitchen knife to her neck before slicing her head off.
This morning he appeared before a judge at the Pas-de-Calais assizes at Saint-Omer, near Calais, facing life in prison for murder.
He denies the charge, pleading diminished responsibility, but faces life in prison.
The court heard how Cousins also told police: ‘I’m sorry for the work which I’ ve given you.
'My wife shouted my name out, I decapitated her. You realise that, and I’m not mad!’
While on remand he said his wife’s inability to have children lay at the heart of the couple’s domestic difficulties.
She feared that she would pass on her father’s multiple sclerosis through his genes, the court heard.
This meant that every time he tried to have sex he was rebuffed. An autopsy confirmed that Mrs Cousins was indeed a virgin when she died, even though she married aged 21.

Wait, at one point, they say she's 3 months pregnant, then they say she hadn't been feeling right for 8 months. How is it possible to have a healthy, mostly formed, 8 lb baby at 3 months? I'm thinking there are some errors there...

Not getting any can make people a little stir-crazy (I should know) but daaaaaang.

The docs told her she was only 3 months pregnant and sent her home. She delivered hours later (presumably at home if her mom delivered the baby) because she'd actually been full-term.  I'm not even going to comment on how ridiculously inept some doctors are. Not going there.

Sean Penn
Sean Penn is a total idiot. So, he wants anybody who calls Hugo Chavez a dictator thrown in jail. Hugo Chavez, first of all, is worse than the scum on the bottom of your shoe. So, since I said that, I should be thrown in jail according to Sean Penn. I should not have freedom of speech. However, if he didn't have freedom of speech, he should be thrown in jail for proposing such a thing. What a tard.
