Star Trek Nerdgasm: Kirk, Spock and Bones 2.0 cast?

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, nerds and nerdettes, and geeks of … well, geeks are genderless:
we at the ol’ raincoaster blog have an announcement to make. We know who will play Kirk, Spock and McCoy in the new Star Trek XI film.
 
It’s. Matt. Damon. As. Captain. James. Tiberius. Kirk.

Naturally, Adrian Brody is the logical choice for Mr. Spock of [...]

Judith Regan at the Bunny Ranch

As Jesus’ General points out, it looks like Judith has had to pursue alternative career paths since her historic and histrionic flameout over the OJ I Did So Do It But Rupert Says I’m Not Allowed to Tell You debacle. She and Heidi could tag-team as a novelty cougar act, come to think of it.

booze nooze yooze can use

Why pay big bucks for your chick beer when you can now make your very own ciders and perry? A tenth of the cost of Smirnoff Ice, and far more pretention-worthy than anything out of a can or a plastic bottle, plus full of nutritious vitamins and minerals. Also, phytochemicals. That’s right; we’re here to [...]

take this job and…

…give it to someone else.
Oh, fine. I obviously had some issues with the whole work-for-no-pay-yet-be-taxed-on-it thang. Next!

I’m funny that way. Maybe Guido has at last made a Capitalist of me?
Nah.
Here, listen to some rousing folk rock about the military-industrial complex, creeping fascism, and the IMF. I always find that cures it.

And by the way, there’s [...]

Harry Potter and the treasure trail of statutory doom

Yes, it’s Daniel Radcliffe, nekkid as a jaybird.
Now we know why Sirius had to die. In isolated parts of Nunavut, they could simply have gotten married…
Thanks to the intrepid and ever-vigilant Perez, we now know that the “and two veg” vastly outshines the “meat”, meaning wee Mr. Radcliffe is not only low in calories, but [...]

rocketman, and no, not the William Shatner version

The Yves Rossy version. Yes, it’s the Icarus of Switzerland on video!
Stole this from Dale, who stole it from Defence Tech, which is the kind of trash he reads at the hairdresser’s, just to give you an idea what his life is like. You’d think the boy would learn from me and raise his standards, [...]

which constellation are you?

  Constellations : Which one are you?  

Cygnus, the swan. You’re the elegance and grace of the constellations. Whatever flaws you may have are hidden completely by your impeccable manners and overall grace. Your power is elegance. Your animal is (obviously) the swan.

maslow’s hierarchy of needs, megalomaniacal blogger edition

Found via a loopy stagger around and off sulz’s blog. Cross-posted to running through rain.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs is more well-known than well-understood, but now any old Myspace slacker still straight enough to click a quiz without having to close one eye and move his lips while watching YouTube can find out how self-realized s/he [...]

happy bloggiversary to me!

Yeah. So. Given the technical issues over the past couple of days which I have not mentioned here strictly out of my concern for your joyful blog-perusing experience (because lo, we are all about thee on the ol’ raincoaster blog, I tell ya), I am not quite as thrilled and indeed substantially more downcast [...]
