Communism makes it funny!

Laughing Under the Covers, a collection of Soviet-era Russian (mostly) jokes.

I wonder if the people on the tour got refunds.

Whale-watchers in Norway get more than they bargained for. I can just imagine the look on the tourists’ faces when the whalers started hauling the catch on board…

Exclusive World Cup footage!

The Italian team prepares for today’s match. Gotta love that hidden camera footage 🙂

If your staff is sending you a whole internet, don’t be surprised if it takes a while to get there.

Why Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK) is against net neutrality. This beggars belief. Is Stevens suffering from senile dementia, or is he just a complete moron? You decide.

Médecins sans éthiques.

Do no harm? How US military medics are facilitating torture and worse.

Still, it’s not as good as Bonsai Kitty.

Bored today? Watch this must-see video of a cat climbing into and out of a glass bottle. Cats: not just evil but crafty as well!

Japan photos: first set.

So, where are all the photos?

I’ve actually been back 3 weeks since my trip in Asia and I hadn’t yet uploaded the photos to my photo site… that’s mostly because the application I wrote to upload photos to it is broken these days (I changed web hosts and changed the structure of my site). I am currently rewriting it, but it takes time.

In the meantime I got an invite to Picasa Web — Google’s new alternative to Flickr — so I decided to go ahead and up load my photos there. I’m not putting them up all in one shot, but you can see the best of the photos I took there. The first installment consists of photos I took in Kyoto and Nara.

Here is the URL: http://picasaweb.google.com/clevershark/KyotoAndNara2006. Enjoy!

Today they’ll annex the doghouse; tomorrow, the world!

Hitler cats. A site featuring pictures of cats that look like Adolf Hitler. I guess they have web sites for everything these days.

Good news, everyone!

Futurama is coming back in 2008! This time it’s for real.

Makes sense to me.

Microsoft workers prefer… Google. Can you trust a salesman who won’t eat his own dog food?
