Bush Adds Segway Scooters to "Axis of Evil"June 23, 2003 |
Kennebunkport, ME Assad the Unseen President Bush taking a digger that had nothing to do with his âAxisingâ of the Segway Human Transporter pon returning from his weekend vacation in Kennebunkport, Maine on Tuesday President Bush announced that the Segway Human Transporter, a motorized scooter popular among newsmagazines and eccentric billionaires, had been added to the âAxis of Evilâ over the weekend. The âAxis of Evil,â a list of rogue nations designated by Bush in 2002 for future âliberation back to the stone age,â originally consisted of Iran, North Korea and Iraq. Cuba, Libya and Syria were later added to the list after an underattended Bush birthday celebration in July. The list has taken on a broader tone in recent months, as the roll call of the presidentâs âAxisâ enemies has been expanded to include the environment, ice cream headaches, the city of Toronto, STDs, gay bikers, ABCâs primetime l...
pon returning from his weekend vacation in Kennebunkport, Maine on Tuesday President Bush announced that the Segway Human Transporter, a motorized scooter popular among newsmagazines and eccentric billionaires, had been added to the âAxis of Evilâ over the weekend. The âAxis of Evil,â a list of rogue nations designated by Bush in 2002 for future âliberation back to the stone age,â originally consisted of Iran, North Korea and Iraq. Cuba, Libya and Syria were later added to the list after an underattended Bush birthday celebration in July. The list has taken on a broader tone in recent months, as the roll call of the presidentâs âAxisâ enemies has been expanded to include the environment, ice cream headaches, the city of Toronto, STDs, gay bikers, ABCâs primetime lineup, cold sores, childproof Advil and Blue Oyster Cult. This seemingly neurotic daily expansion of the list has led to the ironic cultural trend of âAxisingâ disliked pop-culture fads or unpopular coworkers in wiseass circles nationwide. âBritney Spears? Sheâs so âAxisâ right now,â gossiped clubgoer Ryan Barnes. âSheâs worse than North Korea, talk about stockpiling weapons of mass deSUCKtion! Ha ha. Oh, and piercing. Iâm so fucking sick of piercing.â Much speculation has surrounded the timing of Bushâs âAxisingâ of the Segway Human Transporter, which took place concurrent with grainy home video footage hitting the Internet that showed Bush falling off a Segway like a big retarded ape last weekend in Maine. While the Bush administration has denied any link between the two events, the public remains skeptical. âDid you see that shit?â gasped college sophomore Dennis Porter. âThat was tha bomb, I almost shit when that gimp wanged his nuts on that gay-ass scooter thing! Who does he think he is, Devo?â The Segway Human Transporter was unveiled in December of 2001 after a full year of speculation and claims that Dean Kamenâs mysterious new invention would change the world forever. Once unveiled, the transporter was met with embarrassed silence from an American public that had thought it was going to be a hovercar or android man or something incredible like that. âThanks to the Segwayâs four internal gyroscopes, itâs nearly impossible to fall off of the transporter,â explained inventor Kamen. âWe used to just say it was impossible, but then we discovered that if you get a blind guy drunk enough, and have him try to ride it down some stairs, sometimes they can manage. And now, well, the president thing of course.â In his speech, Bush vowed to embargo any possible shipments of Segway scooters destined for North Korea, keeping the dangerous fad toy from falling into the hands of Kim Jong Ilâs bizarre regime. The president, however, did not take this opportunity to explain what use the North Koreans would have for an expensive goofy scooter that looks like George Jetsonâs lawnmower.
the commune news thought those razor scooters were going to change the way we lived forever, so weâre not about to be fooled twice concerning the revolutionary power of scootering. Lil Duncan has yet to have a president fall off of her mid-ride, but the term is still young.
| Somebody Accidentally Downloaded Orrin Hatch MP3 Senator calls for copyright enforcement after horrific download June 23, 2003 |
Washington, D.C. Snapper McGee Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, attempting to burn down the house tah Senator Orrin Hatch made a surprising statement during last weekâs hearing on copyright abuse, calling for the remote destruction of home computers used to illegally download music files. Though the senator refused to discuss his motivation, many believe Hatchâs sudden interest in copyright infringement stems from the first-ever illegal download of one of the Republican senator and part-time composerâs musical works earlier this month.
The fateful pirating in question took place when teenager Jody Whiteman of East Plains, New York accidentally downloaded the illegal MP3 file during a sleepover with high school friends. âI was trying to download that new American Hi-Fi song, and it was late so I guess I clicked the wrong thing or something because the next thing I ...
tah Senator Orrin Hatch made a surprising statement during last weekâs hearing on copyright abuse, calling for the remote destruction of home computers used to illegally download music files. Though the senator refused to discuss his motivation, many believe Hatchâs sudden interest in copyright infringement stems from the first-ever illegal download of one of the Republican senator and part-time composerâs musical works earlier this month. The fateful pirating in question took place when teenager Jody Whiteman of East Plains, New York accidentally downloaded the illegal MP3 file during a sleepover with high school friends. âI was trying to download that new American Hi-Fi song, and it was late so I guess I clicked the wrong thing or something because the next thing I knew, the gayest thing that ever happened was playing through my computer speakers.â Whiteman had inadvertently downloaded the track âAmerica Rocks!â from Hatchâs album âHeal Our Land,â recorded with composer Janice Kapp Perry in 1997. âWe mustâve played that thing 100 times,â Whiteman confided, wiping a tear from his eye. âIt was like that video clip of that fat guy falling off his bike, we couldnât stop laughing. First it was funny just because it was so bad, but then we realized somebody mustâve did it on purpose, which was even funnier. Then Tom pointed out that somebody had to like it enough to post the MP3 online, and at that point we all really lost it.â Some speculate the MP3 download must have led to an ironic purchase of the album by one of the high school students involved, tipping off the senator that someone outside of the Hatch family had purchased one of his albums and leading to the discovery of the illegal download. âIf they illegally download a song once, or twice, theyâll get a warning,â fantasized Hatch out loud during the hearing. âBut the third time? Zap! We blow up their computer. I donât know how, maybe a laser satellite or some kind of Mission Impossible button or something. But the point is, we blow it up and they never rape our music again. Do that a few hundred thousand times, and people will start to get the message. Weâll copyright-enforce them back into the stone age.â Thinking Hatch was kidding, technological consultant Randy Saaf attempted to save face for the entire Republican Party, if not the white race. âNo one is interested in destroying anyoneâs computer, but we feel that more strict enforcement of—â âIâm interested,â interrupted an annoyed Sen. Hatch, who was not kidding at all. A long, uncomfortable silence followed. Jonathan Lamy, spokesperson for the Recording Industry Association of America, suggested Hatch was âapparently making a metaphorical point that if peer-to-peer networks don't take reasonable steps to prevent massive copyright infringement on the systems they create, Congress may be forced to consider stronger measures.â âNo,â countered Sen. Hatch. âIâm talking about blowing up fucking computers! Kaboom! Do I have to spell this out in sign language for you people? Kazap! And maybe a little shock or something to put the fear of Jesus into these people.â After the hearing limped to an awkward conclusion, several senators gathered in the hall to discuss Hatchâs proposal, but to this reporterâs ear it sounded more like a lot of laughing and some gut-busting falsetto renditions of such Hatch classics as âJesusâ Love is Like a River,â âSomeday Iâll Fly,â âIâm Goinâ to Pray for This Land,â âI Am Happy,â and âItâs Not So Easy Growing Old.â the commune news is against illegally downloading music, but only because our connection is so slow we have to go on the âone note a dayâ plan. Ramon Nootles has become convinced that anybody can put out a religious album these days, and is looking for musicians to back him on such tracks as âLet Me Fill You With the Holy Ghostâ and âI Got Your Sister Pregnant with the Spirit of Jesus.â

Hello, reader of Boris. Is day good? Yes, what you say is not the shit.
If you are asking, Boris is good. All days is good since Boris make friend with big bee. Talk about great thing, this is bee friend.
It all starts when Boris has dream. In dream, Boris is walking down road. This part, you are thinking, is maybe not in dream since Boris walks down road in awake world also. But wait for next part. Next thing is that Boris sees big bee! But Boris is not afraid or hiding in bush. Brave dream Boris walk up to big bee and speaks words which show up in air like letters! Is funny dream things.
"R U A B?" is saying Boris.
"I M A B." is what big bee says in letters.
Boris is thinking this is the holy shit. There should be camera or audience persons for this thing. Is like crazy dream.
"O" saying Boris to bee. "I C."
This is when Boris takes bee hand in Boris hand and walk as friends. Is nice end for dream, nicer than other dreams which end with Boris eaten by dinosaur.
So when wake up, Boris knows he now has big bee friend. Yay for Boris! Boris does spend afternoon outside in sun's shine, playing game with bee friend. Boris and bee plays tag, and hide the go look. Are fun games, yes. Boris want to play Connecting Four, but bee doesn't not like this game.
Instead Boris takes bee friend inside to have lunch. Spaghetti-zeroes for Boris, and honey for bee. Honey is good thing for bee, is what bee eats in out of doors.
Boris and bee take nap, and wakes up when Louis come home. Boris is all the way excited to tell Louis story of how Boris and bee make friends. But before story can be said, Louis sits in chair where bee is sleeping! Louis does not see big bee, and oh my God, Louis is jumping and stung in the butt. And bee is sick from killing Louis. Is all so exciting and loud.
When all is done, Louis is in bad butt-swollen mood, and bee is taking nap forever. Him is so sleepy. Boris make little matchbox bed for bee, like in good cartoon movie, and tucks bee in for sleeping. Is nice.
Louis says there is lessons to learn from big bee adventures, and lesson is "Goddammit Boris!" Yes, is true. But like person says, when God flush the toilet, him open a window. And is true. Big bee friend is gone, but now "Similar to Skippy" dog does come out from under bed. So good thing can come from Louis killing friend of Boris with butt. º Last Column: Big Beeº more columns |

Quote of the Day“How does it feel? To be on your own? With no direction home? Not even an amber alert? And nobody's bound to look in this van, so keep quiet and just try to enjoy yourself.”
-Bobby Molesterman, now doing 15-25Fortune 500 CookieNobody thought it was funny when you said you snorted your dad's ashes, so it's best not to mention going bowling with your mom's skillâyour first instinct was right, nobody gets your sense of humor. Tough love is not the only kind of love, except in prison, so you'd better learn to like it. Lucky Strikesâsmoke 'em if you got 'em.

| Australian Hijacker Thwarted, Drained of BloodBY dixon larue 6/23/2003 Learn About RainThe rain falls wet like
sloppery skittles
from the mouth of a
stupid dog.
The beautiful rain,
it coats the trees
like sex lubricant.
But that's where
the rivers come from.
The rain slides down the trees
like sweat down the crack of your ass
and puddles on the ground
where a child could drown
if it were sleeping or hog-tied
or just plain stupid.
Those puddles slink
across the soil like creeping
wet things
to form creeks,
which conspire to form streams
which fuck together into rivers.
Rivers are like a freeway
of water drops,
all the drops cutting each
other off
and screaming profanely.
You can hear them.

because ducks can't float

Quick! Jump in the hole with the fly!
Where frog sex can occur
and the bonus round is secured.
The rain fills up the ocean and lakes,
but in the roundabout way,
like a drunk peeing on the wall,
instead of in the dixie cup you gave him.
Nature is like that dirty drunk.
That is the lesson. |
