Back in the 70’s and early 80’s, Charles Nelson Reilly was a fixture on the talk show circuit. I guess scale made the house
payments. At any rate, I vividly recall him being on Johnny Carson one night with Rob Reiner. Reiner treated him like a dog. That totally spoiled me on Rob Reiner to this day. Not long after, he was on again and this time Bob Hope was on. Hope always came on first and then left….he always said he had something to do when in reality he probably just didn’t want to listen to the drivel. The night in question, his segment was up, Johnny told him goodbye, and started to go to commercial. Hope didn’t leave and Johhny turned to him kind of confused and said, “don’t you have to go”? Hope just replied, “No, I want to say hello to Charles”. They came back from commercial and Charles Nelson Reilly came out. Hope gave him a warm greeting and THEN he left.

Great News: Laser Printers May Be as Harmful as Cigarettes
Posted by: | CommentsGreat News: Laser Printers May Be as Harmful as Cigarettes:
Bad news, office drones: That laser printer sitting in your cubicle might be doing some serious damage to your health. It turns out that one third of all laser printers emit tiny particles of toner that, when inhaled, have similar effects as secondhand smoke. Awesome!
The printers are more dangerous when they’re used a lot, especially for graphic and photo heavy prints that require a lot of toner. In an open office setting, tests revealed that particle levels in the air increased five-fold during the working day due to printer use. That’s such fun news, isn’t it? And here you were eating salads, jogging and not smoking, and it’s going to be your laser printer that does you in. Life sure is hilarious sometimes. [BBC]

Somewhere deep in cyberspace, where reality blurs into fiction and the living greet the dead, there are ghosts. They live in a virtual graveyard without tombstones or flowers. They drift among the shadows of the people they used to be, and the pieces they left behind.
Allison Bauer left rainbows: Reds, yellows and blues, festooned across her MySpace profile in a collage of color. Before her corpse was pulled from the depths of an Oregon gorge on May 9, where police say she leapt to her death, she unwittingly wrote her own epitaph.
“I love color, Pure Color in rainbow form, And I love My friends,” the 20-year-old wrote under “Interests” on her profile. “And I love

Busted: The Citizen’s Guide to Surviving Police Encounters
Posted by: | Comments
Busted: The Citizen’s Guide to Surviving Police Encounters:The “Never Get Busted Again” video is indeed lousy, and gives lots of terrible advice that involves ‘cooperating’ with cops and renouncing your constitutional rights (4th and 5th Amendments, especially). It’s received a bit of angry discussion elsewhere for awhile now.
This video, however, created by the ACLU and Flex Your Rights, (I am not affiliated with either group), does a much better job, and can be seen for free on youtube, unlike the Never Get Busted Again video.

China warns couples that CCTVs may call 911 on PDA:
Beijing couples trying to score a little public nookie should be worried about a little more than just disapproving looks from others: state news agency Xinhua reported yesterday that police CCTV monitoring computers tend to flag “intimate acts” as crimes like kidnapping and robbery, because they’re “programmed to be sensitive to violations of safe distances.” All this really means, of course, is that working for the Beijing 5-0 just got a little more interesting: officers will first “monitor” the suspected crime to make sure things are on the up-and-up before dropping in and killing the mood. You keep that city safe, boys.

Concept: Tar Ashtray Concept Measures Your Dwindling Lifeforce, Smokers:
Anthony Voz, of London, designed this concept ashtray which would measure the ash in its base to guesstimate just how many minutes, days, weeks, and years you shave away with every puff. Could be time to pick up that $200 anti-smoking cigarette. Or lose the preachy friends. Just saying. galleryPost(‘tarashtray’, 4, ‘Tar Ashtray’);

The Yellow Sign: Timothy Leary’s Neurocomics & Promethea by Alan Moore
One of my old roommates boasted a collection of Dr. Timothy Leary’s works that included nearly every single work in first printing that he had published, including a beat-up old copy of Start Your Own Religion, a well-thumbed What Does Wo/Man Want?, and a rather abused copy of The Politics of Ecstasy, but he didn’t have Dr. Leary’s comic book. It was at the end of the seventies that Neurocomics (1979) was released in a print run of 10,000. It’s not even listed on the wikipedia entry of his works, and seems overlooked by most Dr. Leary’s fans. So when I was pointed to the torrent of this lost work, I was ecstatic. Download Timothy Leary’s Neurocomics from Alterati’s torrent tracker to check it out.
