Apparently the Wikipedia entry for IMAO was deleted as it can’t be found (nor the deletion discussion). Interestingly enough, puppy blender hasn’t gained controversy.
Now, I don’t want anyone trying to add an IMAO entry to Wikipedia; they had their chance, and they voted for their own destruction. Yes, I didn’t really care much about the Wikipedia until I heard some bloggers talking about it a couple weeks ago, and now I’ve decided to destroy it. Random vandalism is stupid and childless and easily dealt with; the destruction of Wikipedia will have to be more devious. First, I’ll have to understand the inner workings of the Wikipedia and then…
Man, this is already starting to sound complicated. Someone else want to nefariously plot how to destroy Wikipedia?

Bite-Sized Wisdom: The Final Day of November, 2004
- Bush is visiting Canada, a country whose sole claim to fame is being next to America. Expect nothing interesting to happen as has been the norm for Canada since its existence.
- Iran is having a temporary nuke freeze to “create trust.” To build on that trust, the Ayatollahs are going to close their eyes and fall backwards into the hands of world leaders.
- Ukraine is still in the news. If it lasts another news cycle, I’ll have to devote some time to figuring out why I’m supposed to care.
- Brain scans can tell when people are lying. Finally, a more modern way to tell if someone is lying than beating him with a rubber hose.
- That makes me think of a joke:
Q. How can you tell a lawyer is lying?
A. His Broca’s area on the inferior frontal gyrus shows significant activity.
- China is claiming that the new airport being built in Beijing will be the world’s largest. Anyone who disagrees with this claim will be executed.
- In South Korea a formerly paralyzed woman is walking due to stem cells. The problem is, these stem cells are from umbilical cord blood and thus doesn’t involve any killing whatsoever to gather them. Thus the procedure has been denounced by the embryonic stem cell lobby group Others Must Die So We May Walk.
- The Red Cross is claming that conditions for prisoners at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, are “tantamount to torture”. What! I pay tons of taxes each year, and I want full-fledged torture for my money! The government is always doing a half-assed job…
- HAPPY DANCE COMMITTEE REPORT: The internet camera that Frank J. has is not sufficient for videotaping that happy dance. A digital camera will be obtained. Also, there are hopes that an experienced choreographer will be involved, because it would be horrible if Frank J. ends up looking silly doing the happy dance.
- If you didn’t notice, I’m back! Expect an In My World™ later this week and more adventures of the Hate-Filled Lefty™.
- Oh, and I could use your help. Spam has built up so much in my comments, that it would take weeks of dedicated work to clean it up and close comments for all old posts. Is there any nuclear bomb solution someone knows (are newer version of MT better for this?)? Also, I just got a new desktop (if the IRS asks, I only use it for blogging – oh, and I only bought Half Life 2 to test the hardware) and thus need to move everything important over to it (e-mail, web settings, etc.). I have both my old and new computers in the same room right now, with them on the same network (I have an 802.11g AP that works as a router) to help with transfers. What I really wonder is if I can move Microsoft Office 2003 and Norton Anti-Virus to the new computer without having to pay for them again (legally). Also, while I’m asking for things, if someone could give me a back rub, that would be great.

Have a Fair Election or We Will Bomb You and the Country Next to You
An Editorial by Frank J.
Okay, Ukraine, we have a lot of crap to deal with. We have countries filled with wackos who love to blow themselves up, so we don’t have time to deal with someone who can’t count his chads. You think this is funny? We don’t. We’re pissed off, actually. And you know what happens when we’re pissed off.
“Our degrees of diplomacy are measured by the tons of explosive used.”
I guess you don’t care about that though. You just want to dick around and don’t care what happens. I bet we could set Kiev aflame and this would still be some big joke to you. “Look at us silly Ukrainians, having election trouble and causing more instability in the world!” How about we bomb a few y’s out of Kryvyy Rih (Kryvyy? ‘y’ is sometimes a vowel; try getting friendly with stalwarts ‘a’, ‘e’, ‘i’, ‘o’, and ‘u’)? That means nothing to you, huh? You just like being the center of world attention.
Then what if we bomb… I dunno… Belarus? What, I have your attention now? I never even heard of the country, but I guess you have. They’re right next to you. I’m sure you and the Belarusians get together and dance happy little East European dances. So what happens if we bomb Minsk, Pinsk, and cities in Belarus that don’t rhyme? What, you think we’re bluffing? Hey, we’re crazy, muchachos, and all you foreign countries start to look the same to us. You keep up your crap, Ukraine, and you’ll be seeing the Belarusians screaming and weeping and it will be all on you.
Oh, so suddenly this isn’t funny anymore. Well, we’re America, and our degrees of diplomacy are measured by the tons of explosive used. So why don’t you have an open and fair election, or we will bomb you and the country next to you.
