how to get into Courtney Love’s pants

Doesn't she look great? 

One-time offer! Now, for the low, low price of just $99, you, too, can enjoy the experience once limited to the greatest rock star in the world and, before that, to anyone who tipped the stripper in coke.

from Gawker:

Sure, $99 seems like a lot to pay for a pair of slacks that have contained Courtney Love, but all proceeds go to the Chrysalis Organization, an organization that helps homeless people and ex-cons find jobs. It turns out that Courtney Love is a big humanitarian! Well, not as big as she used to be.

quote o’ the day: how to choose a victim

Stolen from Sarcastro in the comments on Gawker:

…idiots are to be mocked because they can’t understand us,
children are to be mocked because they can’t hurt us and
the obese are to be mocked because they can’t catch us.

yoga @ home, the comic book

It’s random out there. It’s dark, and it’s stormy. And it’s a little weird, especially when it gets earnest.

Sometimes one simply stumbles across a random tentacle twitchingly thrust out by the internets and one knows, without a shadow of a doubt, that this is the blog-filler for which one has been searching.

Ladies, gentlemen, and the undecided:

Yoga at Home

Uh, what are you doing down there, son? 

Handy-dandy tips in Desi comic book form for integrating old-skool yoga into one’s daily life: everything from how to rinse out your sinuses by snorting hot, salty water, to how to maintain order and protect your karma on the playground. You and your clot-ridden sinuses will wonder how you ever lived without it. Praise and flexibility be unto the Yoga Institute of Santa Cruz, Mumbai.

Until the beginning of this century there was an impression that yoga was meant only for yogis and not for householders. Shri Yogendraji, the founder of the Yoga Institute, himself a householder yogi, exploded this myth and trained thousands of men and women in the practice of Yoga.

As this century is stepping into its twilight years there is a growing awareness that the family is the bedrock of personal growth. Members of a family, be they parents or children draw inspiration, strength and faith from the family as a whole. Yoga at Home will help to have light perception and strength family bonds.

mercury spill found: Voldemort sought for questioning

Killingly, you say? 

Has the bodiless villain of the Harry Potter novels crossed the Atlantic to spread death and horror on fresh turf? Could unicorns all over North America soon fear for their innocent lives? And, more importantly:

Does this mean that sexy bitch Alan Rickman is around here somewhere?

This chilling report from the aptly-named Killingly, Connecticut would lead one to believe so…

A “significant amount” of mercury from an unknown source was discovered on Putnam Road Saturday, causing an undetermined amount of soil contamination, according to the state Department of Environmental Protection.
While state environmental officials declined to discuss the possible threat to public health, mercury is a highly toxic substance known to cause a variety of health problems, such as nervous and immune system damage.

“The fact that someone could be so callous as to discard this type of material so near the Five Mile River is outrageous,” said Terry Chambers, who lives close to the contamination site and first reported the mercury. “An event like this could have environmental repercussions for the next 100 years.”

If not longer…
