Help My Baby Live, Please

It comes down to this. If we can’t raise the $50,000 in the next 3 months, we’ll have to choose abortion. We don’t like it, and we don’t like the nature of our appeal, but it is what it is. We’re asking you to donate money to us using the link to your left. Anything you can give would be appreciated.

This is great. Either it’s real, and these people are profiting off of their own stupidity and irresponsibility, or it’s fake, and people are profiting off of other peoples stupidity and irresponsibility. I love the internet. What was the site of that chick who asked people to pay her credit card bills for?

Student stages robbery to wipe bad grades

BERLIN (Reuters) - A 16-year-old Berlin student was so worried he would have to repeat a year at school because of poor marks he convinced two friends to storm his class and steal the report cards with his bad grades.

12-16 year old and wanna quit smoking?

I heard on the radio a few days ago, one of those medical clinical trial things, except they were looking for 12-16 year olds who want to quit smoking. It kind of boggled my mind. I understand kids are smoking that young but it’s the first time I’ve heard someone say it out and about, other then someone trying to fight against smoking directly. It got me thinking a bit about stuff, mainly how I don’t know many 12-16 year olds who would be either A. Listening to the radio, or B. Driving in a car. And even if they were in a car, what, are they gonna whip out a piece of paper and write down the number while their mom is driving them to their friends house?

Paris Hilton Jail!

Paris Hilton is going back to jail.

I’ve never really been into Celeb gossip. I don’t agree generally with how we, as a culture, sit around and admire the accomplishments of other people.

Now, however, I work at a pop culture website, so now it’s my job to know about what they are doing, to better be able to make fun of them. It’s not ok to sit around and admire them, but it’s perfectly ok to sit around and make fun of them.

Let’s dig up Paris Hiltons adventures we’ve put her through.

Listen closely here as someone gives their reaction to the annoucement she’s going back to jail.

Fark has made an epic, epic thread. Lots and lots of funny pictures and opinions.

ParisExposed.com - Paris supposedly forgot to pay her rent on a storage space so it defaulted, someone bought the contents and then put them all online. I think she did it on purpose, or had someone make the site. Here’s a commercial for the sale. (My voice!)

Lastly, we put this animation up last week, without knowing what was going to happen. Kinda ironic but cool. Good doubly so if you like Johnny Cash.

Lastly, I had a run in with Miss Hilton on the internets as well.

Nobody knew about her before her sex video. I’m just sayin.

The Muse is Mean

I hate when I get bitten by the Muse, she demands my undivided attention, smacks me around, leaves me begging for more with hickeys all over my body. I look back and see the remnants of all of my poor, abandoned projects and want to apologize.

My current issue is so bittersweet. I took a Flash AS3 class this weekend and it sorta slid into place, exactly how powerful it is, and how much easier it is then what I thought it would be. I can’t focus on or even think about anything else. Especially any games, or the top secret project I’d been working on, diligently, up until then.

So naturally it’s really hard to find inspiration to bring home ‘work.’ I work in Flash for 8 hours a day, so it’s not always the first thing I want to do when I come home and sit down to unwind. It’s not dread by any means, but just a matter of focus. So now I have the passion again and want to ride it out as long as I can.

Does anyone out there feel my pain?
