Schwarzenegger denied sex for RNC speech

Schwarzenegger made a hilarious speech about his wife withholding sex from him for 2 weeks for giving the speech at the Republican convention. I wonder if he'll go without again for revealing that little tidbit?

My favorite quote: "I don't know why I watched the presidential debates," he said. "If I want to watch a smart liberal Democrat and a Republican leader argue, all we have to do is go out to dinner. They were lucky. They only had to do it three times."

It's unfashionable for liberals to like republican candidates (at least in my city) but I don't keep it a secret that I like Ahnuld. He's truly the American Dream, immigrated to the US while barely speaking the language and rose to the top of 3 seperate careers. You can't say the Good Old Boy network helped him out.

I Love Bees - hit alternate reality webgame

We all know Halo 2 is gonna rock, but it seems its marketing tie-in, I Love Bees, has gathered a sizeable audience of its own. Coined as an alternate-reality webgame, characters from the war-torn future reach out to people from our time in one gigantic mystery. The game is deiberately hard to get into, but once you have some idea of what's going on, the game gets kinda cool.

The main website www.ilovebees.com is very cryptic, with some sort of corruption played out over an innocent bee/honey site. One of the game's characters maintains a blog as a soft of "sister" site, which spells oout almost everything. If you're still confused, then... you're stupid! No, check out this great site, and also IGN's piece on the game also.

Couple of funny sites

Check out You Forgot Poland for some Bush humor and McSweeney's for some all around general humor.

Pyschic Cowboys @ Trois

My buddy Mel has a great band (or so I've heard) that are playing this week at the Trois Estate. It's a closed party but the estate, and its website, are very cool places to check out.

Obsessive Mac Review

Wow. If you are a PC user and ever really wanted to know about the little details of using a Mac, check out the "review" over at Anandtech. This is an exhaustive review of OS X compared to Windows, and goes down to the fine detail of individual applications (like Outlook vs. Apple Mail). For the most part, I think the reviewer hit the nail on the head with everything. The hardware is over-priced and MS Office is incredibly slow on a Mac, Safari is slow, but most everything else is improved and much easier to use. I own a PC and a Mac, and I use my Mac for everything but playing games. It's so much easier to use for surfing and email, and the iLife apps like iPhoto, iTunes, iDVD, etc are absolutely amazing. In fact, I would say this computer has actually improved my life in some small amount. It also has made me a little bit stupid-er, cause it handles much of the details for you.

What politcal point of view are you?

I find a lot of people aren't the politcal animals they think they are. They say they're a liberal when really they are a socialist, or conservative when they are a libertarian. This is a political quiz that can quickly help you determine what stance you really have.

Tiger Claw totally beats Paper

Haha. I knew the media wasn't telling us the full story in Iraq. Saddam is one evil paper-rock-scissors player, we did the right thing taking him out.

Speaking of PRS, check out this Vulcan/Lizard expansion which adds infinite depth and fun to ye olde game. I think they should expand the game to about 150 more signals to include alien races and include the final version in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Isn't our entire culture like this?

Check out the Movie Cliches list for a good crack up. They definitely need a list for the military. For example:

-All military generals have a secret desire to bomb "the enemy." Anyone is the enemy.
-Any realistic war movie is about a military disaster.
-Any pro-military movie will be so patriotic you want to throw up from the overwhelming pride.
