News Of Various Kinds
11 Jul 2006 23:53In Today's Episode: Medrox talks to Mane-of-Night in the latest chapter of The Darkhawk Diaries - is a career change on the cards...?
Mini-Commentary... "This chapter includes the first serious reference to the Confederacy Unlimited Wrestling Association, and gives some explanation as to how such a low-brow, Earth-style thing managed to gain a following in the Confederacy. We'll be visiting this again shortly. *cue maniacal grin*"
In The News... It's bye-bye Windows 98, according to "Dr Evil" himself. Setting us up for the next computing revolution, eh, Bill? Bloatware requiring a massive 3D card, by the look of it...
- Oh, how wonderful. Women will soon be able to get pregnant using "artificial sperm" created from stem cells collected from their partner's testicles; a supposed "godsend" for infertile men. How long will it be before they can make "sperm" from a woman's stem cells, and cut men out of the picture completely?
Don't fuck around with this. One wrong step, and it'll
1) make Thalidomide look like a minor rash, and
2) torpedo any hopes of making real advances involving stem cell research.
The hopes of million destroyed in the rush to satisfy the maternal delusions of a bunch of people who shouldn't be having children anyway. Don't talk to me about "human rights"...
- Get well soon, Sir Norman Wisdom, in hospital recovering from having a pacemaker fitted. A genuine comedian, much deserving of his knighthood, and the kind of talent now sorely lacking in the world.
And Finally... FUCK all these fake system message pop-ups. They've not caught me out, but by the gods, they are evil. The people responsible should be neutered with a rusty corkscrew.
