The salmonella outbreak that started with a scare over tomatoes has been finally traced to a dirty farm in Mexico that uses runoff water from livestock and chicken coops to irrigate jalapeno crops.
I told you so. I told you the Salmonella food scare of 2008 would be traced to organic farming methods. In [...]

I used to be a welder, and actually helped put the USS George Washington together back in the early 90’s. But the Captain and the Executive Officer got lazy in enforcing fire regulations on board, and the result was a ship in flames that resulted in a $70 Million repair bill. And the [...]

Finally, the world’s stupidest hacker will be extradited to the United States to stand trial. In a last ditch effort, Gary McKinnon went to the House of Lords to beg to be protected from US prosecution. The judges unanimously gave McKinnon the boot.
From the AFP here:
A London man accused of hacking into the [...]

I laughed when I saw this Google Search string in my referral logs:
how long does it take for the fbi to come to your house for accidentally downloading child porn off limewire
I would just like to answer the Ojai, California resident at IP address 76.174.38.x who googled that: They will be there in ten minutes, so [...]

I usually post food related blogs on the front site, but this has more to do with underhanded sneakiness, so this post should go here. So it seems a pretty crappy restaurant went tits up. The only thing that was good at any Bennigan’s store was the beer, and thankfully you can get that anywhere. [...]

Yeah, spammers are annoying, no question. They flood inboxes with ads for penis creams, fake watches, penny stocks, and links to malware-infected sites. They even steal identities of victims that fall for their scams. Now there is a new crime to add to the evils of spammers- Murder.
Edward Davidson, convicted for spamming millions, escaped from [...]

I wrote previously here about the twisted moonbats in Denver planning to protest the Democrat National Convention who are convinced that the “Gubmint” is going to shoot them with sound waves to induce uncontrollable poopsies in their pantsies.
Pro tip: Don’t give the paper your name if you pretend to be an Anarchist.

Today is the last day that you can purchase a Cisco PIX as it is now considered End of Life.
When I worked at my last DoD gig, I was thrown into a position where I had to administer about 250 Cisco PIXes. At the time I had zero experience, but I knew how to [...]

I don’t know if you have to feed it bananas. But I wonder what its bacon will taste like?
The pollution in China has finally brought about the introduction of a new species that is sure to wipe us all out in some future war. Or maybe it will fall into a sausage grinder [...]

Yay. After spending good money on computer operating systems, Bill Gates is taking his share of the profit from my purchase to finance “Operation Global Nag” to pester the hell out of Joe SixPacks around the World about their smoking habits. Really Bill and Mike? Nothing better to do that export Ydoyouthink [...]

According to this Sweetness and Light post about an article in the Evening Standard, Barack Obama’s GrandPappy, Hussein Onyango Obama, was a Muslim witch doctor. And Witch Doctors from that region of Africa play a new fun game, called “Hack up the Albino.” I wonder how many potions Obama’s grandfather brewed that contained [...]

We just finished watching Knocked Up, and because we love this song so much I thought I should post it. Loudon is actually the doctor in Knocked Up that goes on a trip to San Francisco for a Bar Mitzvah. Click the video to enjoy.

This is a hilarious little video from the FailBlog.
I wonder if Hotels.Com asked for their advertising fees back after being stabbed in the back like this from ABC? Oh well, they should protect their data better and they wouldn’t be embarrassed like this.

Oops. Somebody dropped their global warming. Anchorage is on track to have its coldest summer ever recorded. Suck it Al Gore.
From Anchorage Daily News here:
The coldest summer ever? You might be looking at it, weather folks say.
Right now the so-called summer of ‘08 is on pace to produce the fewest days ever [...]

I wrote a followup to the [GAS] post I wrote last week about Terry Childs, the city’s network admin who went off the reservation and locked out all of his fellow employees from the network.
Lockout: The ultimate solution for the BOFH
It turns out that he thought the only person he could ethically disclose the passwords [...]

I have a post up at Geeks Are Sexy about Robert Soloway, aka the Spam King, being sentenced to four years of PMITA Prison.
I wrote about his conviction last year in this post here.
I included some statistics on current spam levels and how this single conviction will do nothing to stem to flow of unwanted [...]

What?? A rapper jailed for identity theft for lying about his true name in order to dodge medical bills? The hell you say! But its true. Rapper DMX was arrested for medical identity theft after going to the Mayo Clinic for medical treatment and giving the fictitious name of “Troy Jones.”

I remember when all of the treehuggers banned the paper bag because it killed trees. Now they are switching back because plastic bags harm the landfills. Wait, what? Don’t treehuggers mandate that plastics get recycled?? So why are plastic bags going to landfills? This should be proof that the Environment [...]
