It was either unaired material for Fox’s Talkshow with Spike Feresten, or is just from one of that show’s writers.

Sprinkler Rainbow lady is at it again:

HOW CAN THE LIGHT BE BEHIND THE MOON??? IS IT A HOLIGRAM OF OUR MOON?

3203

This isn’t as funny now that it’s sorta clear this woman is a paranoid schizophrenic. Her youtube page has the telltale wall of text of the schizophrenic’s web site.

Also, case in point:

"Books: I used to love to read, now I don’t understand why I don’t read like I use to anymore. It sucks to have the person that you were taken from you. That is one of the things those EVIL COWARDS have taken from me in their quest to rule us. "

It’s just kind of sad.

3204

Yea, wow. I didn’t look at her page.

Doctor Who: What are you doing here?

3206

Theme from Shaft, on Ukelele. Really, it’s much better than it sounds.

3207

Short video clips that I took at the Red Bull Soapbox Derby in Cincinnati, OH.

My three favorite racers.

3208

Newcastle coach Joe Kinnear not being too happy about the way certain newspapers are writing about him.

3209

It’s a great time to invest.

This footage of some professional cybergamer dude or whatever was linked from Blue’s News. The first minute is why cybergaming isn’t fit for broadcasting. No one wants to watch dumb kids sitting stock still except for their twitching fingers and wrists.

But the last two minutes are why cybergaming should be broadcast. Also, I’m serving notice that I plan to use “stop nerd raging” on this forum.

Where’s his motherfucking chocolate milk?

(“Stop nerd raging. Please.” is definitely a money quote)

3212

Man, that was uncomfortable to watch in a way that “reality” TV has yet to achieve.

Stop nerd raging indeed.

3213

If you have a good memory for 80’s cartoon opening sequences, this music video for the Black Kids might be amusing.

I caught references to M.A.S.K, Jem, Thundercats, Silverhawks, Mysterious Cities of Gold, Pole Position, Ulysses 31, Bionic Six, Galaxy Rangers and Dungeons and Dragons

Its an interesting sociological observation that it seems sad that guys get this worked up over a video game, but its acceptable when your putting a ball through a hoop. I always thought it was an odd juxtaposition that it will get you arrested if you hit someone on Jerry Springer when you find out they’ve been having sex with your wife, but punching someone on the ice over a challenge of getting a puck in a net will only get you a 60 second timeout.

3215

I’m pretty sure professional sports players sign tons of waivers and legal documents.

The people on the Springer show get arrested? There’s like 4 fights an episode (hardcore fights, or there are when I watch it), I’d be surprised of they all were cirminally charged.

Also, in the NHL, for most serious penalties/misconduct there are legal ramifications, be they hefty fines (for the player and team) or criminal charges (Bertuzzi).

3216

Springer got into some trouble with the Chicago City Council over all that and ended up remaking his show to be less violent (the days of slugfests between guests, thrown chairs, etc only exist in reruns). I dont think the show ever got as far as facing criminal charges, but thats where they were heading if the show hadn’t decided to change on their own.

The NHL though features a few fights every game that arent much different than the old Jerry Springer shows.

I dont mean to disparage either of the events, in fact I loved watching both the hockey fights and the Springer show. But it did make me wonder exactly why I enjoyed it so much.

Doctor Who: What are you doing here?

3218

Before there were drum machines, there were…old tractors.

3219

And then there was the late 90’s.

3220

Which reminds me of the glorious 80s.
