McSweeney's presents a pole dancing class taught by Paula Deen:
OK now, you're going to grab on to your pole about head-height, swing yourselves out and WRAP your body around the pole—that's right, just wrap yourself around it like a slice of bacon 'round an ear of sweet corn. Good, y'all! Now kick up that outside leg and float around to the ground ... nice and light, just like you're folding mayonnaise into sour cream. That's it!
Oh, wow, check out this octopus jewelry. I like the tentacle earrings. Spendy, though.
except to say that it's AWESOME.
Sounds awesome to me!
That's the thing, though - Lady Gaga could be anybody. At least, if she dressed in regular clothes, she could probably go to the grocery store unmolested.
TSA leaks its entire airport security manual online:
In a massive security breach, the Transportation Security Agency (TSA) inadvertently posted online its entire airport screening procedures manual, including some of the most closely guarded secrets regarding special rules for diplomats and CIA and law enforcement officers.
The most sensitive parts of the 93-page Standard Operation Procedures were apparently redacted in a way that computer savvy individuals easily overcame.
The document shows sample CIA, Congressional and law enforcement credentials which experts say would make it easy for terrorists to duplicate.
The improperly redacted areas describe that only 20 percent of checked bags are to be hand searched for explosives and reveals in detail the limitations of x-ray screening machines.
People are killing me! First we have this whole rush job/back and forth about a project before the holidays, and now everyone is acting all confused about the deadline.
Also, they've apparently just now noticed Christmas is coming up and want to have promotions for the holiday that we can't get up until 12/22, 3 days before the day.
Mrowr!
That'll jingle some bells.
I have a t-shirt with smiling skulls that I usually wear on Halloween, esp as I usually fail to come up with an actual costume to wear. That's about it. In my house, flannel pjs are considered holiday wear on Xmas morning.
Also that cat behavior blog post? I am finding several of those behaviors not evil, no matter how cleverly he describes them. Like mewing so you'll feed them. Dude, you don't want to have to feed a cat (or any pet) don't bring it home.
And the marking and cleaning behaviors aren't evil so much as not human. I wouldn't translate them directly into human behaviors. And I certainly wouldn't bother getting insulted by them.
