Corndog's Culture Corner
One of my favorite films of all time.... Freaks! A movie set in a circus freak show that starred actual freaks! Can it get any cooler? No, it can't. It really can't. Just look at these cool pictures

The Valley!
No, not geeky Sillicon Valley (yawn)... the Valley Girl Valley.... the San Fernando Valley! I found this cool site with all sorts of old photos of the Valley. Check it out... it's brought to you from the good folks over at CSUN.

Job Search Weirdness
I have a meeting with a recruiter tomorrow which is business casual. In verifying my understanding of this common oxymoron, I found someone who has apparently devoted her life to business casual. I suppose I'm completely clueless, but why would you buy her biddness casual book (!) when you can get a general idea from this picture? For example, I'm sure this is not business casual.

Leftists on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown
The LA Weekly doesn a pretty good job of describing the nonsense that a lot of people are spouting these days. I've run across this from people that 90% of the time are as rational as can be. Something seriously weird happened, staring in the 90s and seriously unhinged American politics. It seemed to start with Clinton, but I'm not sure if he was a cause or a symptom. My running theory is that Clinton was a less that optimal pick for the Dems, but since they had been frozen out of the White House so consistently for so long, they stuck by him no matter how embarassing he was, because he had the ability to play to the crowds. This unhinged the Republicans, who went into constant attack mode.

Once Clinton was out, the Dems went unhinged, I supposed because the other side being unhinged gave them a gut feeling that the job of the opposition party was to be.. unhinged. So now they are in constnat attack mode, but in a weirdly modified way post-911 at the official party level.

At Last.. SCIENCE!
Apparently, some enterprising folks over in the UK have set out to do a limited test of the Infinite Monkey Hypothesis. Way cool! Maybe next they can test the cat-and-toast perpetual motion machine! By-the-by, judging from the way they wrote it up, the dorks at BBC have never even heard of the Infinite Monkey Hypothesis before.

Alternate Jobs for Geeks
Dang, I knew I should have studied that Conversational Klingon I could qualify for an important government job.

Allegedly Funny Comedians
I stumbled on this cool breakdown of Dennis Miller's "style". Someone could almost write software to generate a Dennis Miller routine using this article as a basis. I'll have to remember to contact the GNU people and see if anyone is working on this.

I Have More Free Time!

Well, in a manner of speaking. As of May 16th the company I work for goes away. Anyone know of a companies in California that are looking for a senior, object-oriented software engineer type? Tons of experience. I mean, Holy Moley ... I've been programming under Unix for twenty years. Doing C++ for fifteen. I'll be your friend if you find me a job. Send any leads to "jobsearch" at sizzlingweasel.com!

I can throw more buzzwords at ya, or even a resume if you want. Sample buzzwords: UML! HTML! Threads! CORBA!

Doonesbury (sigh)
Yup, Doonesbury can now be classified as the Walking Dead, a soulless zombie of it's former self. I realized that when I saw this Sunday strip in the New Orleans airport. Gags about freedom fries, fer cryin' out loud? That's simply old news.. check out this article from March 13th! How un-topical can a "topical" cartoon be?

Trudeu seems to be trying to be up-to-date -- adding refences to e-bay and such -- but it just don't work.

Apparently, we now need to send peacekeeping troops to the UN building. It's a beautiful world.
