Time for another odd conection. A few weeks ago, the nytimes ran a story about a company in Pakistan that makes S&M toys. So what does that have to do with a documentry filmaker producting a film about underground christian churches in china?
Back in 2006, Hao Wu was taken into cusdody by chinese authorities. [...]
Its no secret that Im a rather vocal critic of the NCSF. Or at least the NCSF that has existed since the spring of 2002. The old NCSF I actually sorta liked. Though I could rattle off a list of every objection I have, the thing I want to specifically focus on for the moment [...]
WARNING: If you know who Mystery Organization X is, please don’t post to the comment section. Like Glenda the Good Witch looking out after Dorthy, if you just TELL someone the answer, it wont do them any good. They have to learn for themselves.
So I heard someone ranting about ‘net neutrality’ recently. I would have [...]
I like bizarre connections between things you wouldn’t think are related. Thats why I love the lecture by Mike Row at the EG conference. He starts off talking about the castration process of lambs. Along the way he talks about german porno, aristotle, Bruce Willis in ‘The Sixth Sense’, Hillary Clinton drinking shots, the nature [...]
Well, the christmass sales season over at kinkyropes is all wraped up now. It was a very big success overall but the thing Im most proud of is getting everyone to call it a ‘christmass’ sale instead of coping out with some lame ass PC crap like it being a ‘holoday sale’ or ‘winter festival’ [...]

A long time ago I heard a radio interview with a guy who thought the moon landings had been faked. He was on with one of those debunks-consparicy-theory proponets and I was rather startled by how the conversation turned out …..
It all started off with the usual acuzations. The debunker launched in screaming and yelling [...]
I recently watched a lecture by Steven Levitt (auther of Freakonomics) that gave a fairly convincing argument on why putitng children in car seats is a bad idea. As he points out in his lecture, many people are unhappy with this idea. Especialy car seat manfacturers.
His theory on why there is so much restance to [...]
So there is this funny little case going on here localy to me. This guy John Ondrik has to go before the zoning board because neighbors are complaining he is running a business in a resedental zone. But wait, there is a loophone in the law. A church is free to operate in a [...]
So what do potato chips have to do with the bdsm?
In upstate new york, just before the civil war, a diner at a resort restraunt did something that no customer at any food service establishement should ever do. He pissed off the cook.
I remember back in the days when I was slinging hash for a [...]
