Currently, the latest toolbar used to play PMOG will not allow me to complete any missions, which is the source for the bulk of my PMOG Link Monday blog posts. I have all the confidence that this will be remidied quickly and I am looking forward to new features. The overlords of PMOG have opened a portal through time and taken players back to the days of beta. The decision was made to allow the coding monkeys to experiment with new goodies built into Firefox 3. Thus, this may be a good time to review all the finds I have made since I started playing this game.

Thus Far…

Volume 1: Congress, Comics and absolutely no Smurf websites.

Volume 2: Online betas, alternative energy, IE sucks, Strange collaborative writing, Raising money.

Volume 3: Armstrong & Miller sketch comedy, freakin’ hilarious.

Volume 4: Get organized you putz, Grand Central, Remember the Milk & Jott. Nude runway models eating borscht, not included.

Volume 5: Book lovers, Linking, Recycling. The rights to this volume has been sold to Michael “boom-boom” Bay.

Volume 6: Procrastination animation, Anonymity, Why play this game?

Volume 7: Twitter tools! Spelling and grammar errors in volume 7 are intended to make me sexy.

Volume 8: Word tools, Nerf Herder video for Mr. Spock.

Volume 9: Toast is delicious, The periodic table of Awesomeness, Anti-social networking and one bad joke that is so bad, it is good.

Volume 14: Music & Cynicism.   This post is now Barry Manilow free!

If you haven’t tried PMOG, go check out the video on the main page.  I know, you are one of those people who doesn’t want to waste time playing a game, you have better things to do.  Guess what?  This game is perfect for you, because you are passively playing anytime your browser is open and you are doing other things (or turn it off).

Maher & Rock made me giggle like a little school girl on acid.  Sorry, I can’t give you a better metaphor, because I am not Dennis Miller, I am just some dude with a blog.  Rather than make more excuses, I’ll do better next time.  Watch the clip.

Now, stop laughing & move to Canada because it’s all true.  If you’re interested, here’s the”New Rule” from this episode.  His final monologue is a warning about judging a certain presidential candidate(McCain) by his skin color.

Seems like we need a slur for these guys, white trash is already taken.

Hilarious.

Thanks to grbrit on twitter for the find.

I haven’t posted in the sports category in a while, so here’s something I spotted at Milk&Cookies.  Lebron James gets beat at a game of horse by some dude.  I am surprised Lebron didn’t blame his coach for the lose.  Even more surprising, Lebron admited that he had teammates.

On the other hand, the dude is pretty good.  He should tryout for the WNBA and when they turn him down he can file suit claiming that they are denying him a job because of his sex.  The league doesn’t make enough money to hire a lawyer, so maybe they would add him to a team, it would be nice to see someone score a basket in the WNBA.

Damn, as a rule I don’t buy things that are dry clean only.  This BMW concept car is made out of a Lycra.  Huh?  Yep, a ‘translucent,’ seamless Lycra is stretched over an aluminum frame.  You can adjust the shape in whatever way you like, as the Lycra will stretch as hydraulic controls mold it.

Can you imagine what an angry ex-wife and a pair of scissors could do to your car? Interesting concept, perhaps the next time I get into a fender bender, I’ll stop at the Yarn Barn and knit a sweater to cover up the dents.  For a better joke see the actual blog post at wired and read the comments, some of them are hilarious.   Much nicer looking than some Ferrari Grocery Getter.

Ron Paul is like, “Hello, Bitches!”  Check him out, right in the beginning of the clip.  Bailout or do nothing are not the only choices.  Reform the system, not prop it up.

No doubt you’ve heard Microsoft pulled the Seinfeld/Gates ads.  This evening I saw the new commercials for Microsoft:

SEE! PC’s are cool too!  Blah, Blah.  Personally, whatever system is needed to finish the job is the one I’ll use.  I prefer the Mac for my everyday surfing and whatnot because I find their operating system to be more reliable and stable.  It has nothing to do with the flashy designs and the cutesy graphics.    In fact, those are the things that I wish Apple would get rid of because it’s just bloated crap that robs my applications of valuable memory.

Speaking of operating systems, there are a number of folks building ‘hackintosh’ computers, PCs that are running the Apple OS X.  I think the Mac ads are getting a bit played out anyway so they should embrace the folks running OS X on PCs in the final commercial featuring ‘Mac’ & ‘PC.’

Mac: Hello, I’m a Mac.

PC: And I’m a PC.

Mac: Hey, that’s a nice tie.  What is that, a leopard print?

PC: Yes, it is.  It’s part of my new operating system.

Mac: Wait, you’re running…

PC: Yes, I am running OS X.  You see, both of us use similar chip sets now.  So, instead of spending my days fearing viruses, locking up and being jealous of you, I am now running the same operating system as you.

Mac: That’s great, PC.  Ah, you know that the operating system was made for Apple Hardware, so there’s no guarantee that it will work flawlessly?

PC: Could you please just let me have this one victory?  Now, what’s  a widget?  Is that like a gadget?

Mac: Yeah, let me show you something. NYTimes Vista Rips off OS X.

Oh, and some people think they are proving how lame Microsoft is because they figured out the new “I’m a PC” ads were made with Macs.  Guess what, that just proves how lame you are.  Of course they were made with Macs!  The film and video industry has been dominated by Macs since the days of Buster Keaton & Fatty Arbuckle.  Microsoft has no more control of the company they hired to make their ads than you do of the the company that makes your Star Wars t-shirt in Bangladesh.  So Microsoft paid someone with a Mac to make their ads and you support sweat shops, congratulations you’re a pathetic bastard.
