it's MEGACAR!
Thursday, December 2, 1999 | 01:31 p.m.
This reminds me more of KITT than anything else, although I guess if you have $300K to blow on a roving geekmobile you could afford a voice synthesizer as well. Check out the hi-fi version if you can, complete with hilarious "Let's get ready to rumble!"-like sound effects and cheesy techno music.

END WTO POLICE BRUTALITY NOW
Thursday, December 2, 1999 | 10:31 a.m.
I live right near downtown Seattle, on Capitol Hill, and the fucking cops have been terrorizing a peaceful neighbourhood for the last two days. I'm sorry, but people have the right to protest in their own damn city and the cops have been tear gassing and shooting people w/ rubber bullets with no provocation at all. It's disgusting. I'm anti-WTO but even if I wasn't I'd be anti-brutality.

Ebay find of the day
Wednesday, December 1, 1999 | 08:33 p.m.
If you really loved me, you'd get me this for Christmas. (doing my holiday shopping this year at Pisces Catalog Online, dafridge.com, Archie McPhee and Astounding Graphics.)

Get your own Wu name!
Wednesday, December 1, 1999 | 02:22 p.m.
Wu-Tang Clan and their funkadelic names got you feeling jealous? Fear not, fearless friend. You too can have your very own Wu-Tang name. I'm Spunky Misunderstood Genius, which I must say is dead on.

Ann Landers and the Web
Wednesday, December 1, 1999 | 02:03 p.m.
Someone's mad as hell about Ann ragging on the web without even having access herself (okay, she finally got email), and they've put up a site with links to her columns, articles about her technophobia, and other such interesting tidbits. You can also check out her sister (and arch rival) Dear Abby's official site, and a brief history of the two sisters.

Who's the Skankiest?

Mr. Diva tells all! (although I would smack him for his Madonna mention, were I to meet him)

Repro Depot Fabrics
Wednesday, December 1, 1999 | 01:48 p.m.
Online store selling retro reprint fabrics from the way out. This stuff would look so awesome in my living room, I can't even tell you. I heart the amoebas, the Japanese toys, and the gorgeous Varga-esque Island Girls. Now I want to buy a sewing machine.

Name the Decade!

Choose between the Millies, the Nillies, the aughts, the naughts, and many more. Be sure to check the box that certifies "I pledge to use whatever name is voted the winner. I will also tell my friends and relatives to use this name. I will thwart those who use any other name."
