HOLLOW CHOCOLATE BUNNIES OF DEATH

I’m tired and full of pizza and Ferrero Rocher, so I’ll give you a choice:

1. My dream last night in which I attended a class taught by William S Burroughs which involved either him or an assistant flashing a g-string while he read passages from Cities Of The Red Night.

2. Chocolate bunnies being melted by appliances and death metal.

I'm posting the second option on  the presumption that you'd prefer the bunny-melt.

Either way, this post is disturbing yet hilarious. Like me.

AMERICA: A PLACE FOR AMERICANS

Something else that Obama 44 is going to have to get around to fixing:

ITEM: An Australian family on a mercy dash to a dying relative in the United States were detained without food or water before being sent to a detention centre and forced to spend the night with criminal suspects. Their ordeal finished with them being deported.

FUN FACT: All of the family members in question, including the kids, had valid visas to enter the US.

And Republicans wonder why all those ungrateful foreigners hate America so much.

Stay home,

HOME TAPING IS KILLING MUSIC PART 67,356

ITEM [via BoingBoing]: Remember how Monty Python started their own YouTube channel in which they put lots of clips up for free viewing with links to buy the DVDs on Amazon.com?

Result: their DVDs are now No. 2 on Amazon’s Movies/TV bestseller list, and sales are up 23,000%.

Conclusion: YouTube is clearly killing the entertainment industry, just like the MPAA always told you. Because when you give it away free, people who like it go out and buy it. And that’s wrong for America.

Stan Schroeder at Mashable makes a valid point:

I’m not implying that everyone who owns copyrighted content should give everything for free and simply hope that the fans will send them money. But I am saying you can’t have it both ways; you can’t control, monitor and bully users on the ISP level, and reap benefits from free redistribution of content at the same time. Sooner or later, the entertainment industry will have to choose.

Cry poor,
