Cool! Someone has ported the old Torgo screensaver of Fate to Mac OS X. If you’re not familiar with this, Torgo is a character from Manos: the Hands of Fate, believed to be the worst movie ever made. It was one of the most popular episodes of MST3K.

Fight Back!
Great parody of the Apple/Pepsi TV ad.
FOOD FIGHT!!!!!!!!
What the custodians at Glenwood Middle School were shoveling Wednesday wasn’t snow.
It was taco salad, chocolate pudding, milk and other items – the remnants of a massive eighth-grade food fight in the school cafeteria.
The extent of the mess was such that custodians used snow shovels to clear it away.
Silly Sunday Quiz: Are You A Metrosexual?
Are You A Metrosexual? Don’t worry if, despite scholars in Michigan voting it one of 2003’s most over-used and useless words, you don’t know what it is – you might still be! (For men only, unfortunately. What would the female equivalent be?) [metafilter.com]
My score is 9/50! I’m probably the geekiest gay man alive & maybe the only one with no fashion sense & who doesn’t give a crap about my appearance.
Attacking the Spammer Business Model
[Slashdot]
Inspired by this story, I wrote a little script which I named spamslam:
#!/bin/sh
for ((i=0;i<$1;++i));
do echo curl -s $2 ; curl -s $2 >/dev/null;
done
When I get a piece of spam, I find the URL of their web site and append some nasty message to it and then run this script to repeatedly issue that request, which will leave a nasty little message in their server logs.

This is awesome!
Developers! Developers! Developers!
This is truly scary! I think it looks a lot like Tor Johnson.

Linux for christians
I don’t know how I missed this special distribution of Linux for Christians. It came out in 1999. Interesting idea. “The distribution that will not lead you into temptation.” [Scripting News]
is this real? It looks like an elaborate joke to me
