It’s a crazy time to be a computer under ownership of Eric Webster right now .. if you don’t live in Boston and exist solely for work purposes you will hardly will be used.

With the arrival of summer comes the apparent abandonment of geek-dom. (for the most part anyways) I just feel the need to get out there and; plant a tree, drink a beer, poke a dead body with a stick .. do anything. I just can’t sit there on a sunny Saturday and type a website entry when the weather is warm -- hence the absolute lack of communication here. But seeing I managed to steal a few minutes of time here and there lets catch up on some things.

Live 8

I know nobody needs to argue a point which has been beaten into the ground but the problem with celebrities is that they did not gain their popularity because of their superior intellect, hard work or through great ideas. This of course means their opinion should not be weighed more than yours or mine -- unfortunately this is not even close to being true.

Every fucking asswipe with a guitar, record contract, role in a movie, publicist and a bleeding heart has been crying a river for years now about save this and stop doing that and it all just needs to stop right now. If I see another “lets join hands and hug out hate/hunger/war/whatever is of the minute” concert I will just go nuts grab a sniper rifle and start plunking people from 600 yards away from inside a church steeple.

They (celebrities) think they have some great idea that nobody has thought of and they are unveiling some brilliant plan upon the world. Truth is that their “idea” is only a half baked and that’s the reason why it was never executed.

Sing your song, do your little dance and make your money Mr. Asswipe -- just please don’t think and then try to use your popularity for your cause. And yes I’m looking directly at you Aston Kutcher.

Homerun Derby hijinks

MLB has changed their format of the homerun derby which happened last night, going from “lets get all the leagues best sluggers and make them compete” to “lets get a representative from each country in the world and make them compete so that the homerun derby includes players that nobody cares about.”

The basic problem with this is nobody from Canada or South Korea can hit a long ball to save their lives, while perennial all-stars like Miguel Tejada and Manny are sitting on the bench picking their asses because a representative from that country was already chosen (David Ortizzle). The players love it too because it allows them to represent their country and who wouldn’t love to do that .. but Baseball is no longer “America’s Pastime” we have officially sold out an gone global.

If it wasn’t for fuckin Abreau hitting 24 homeruns in one 10 out stretch … I wouldn’t be the only person complaining about this today.

Entourage

I’ve been sucked in to HBO’s new “slut of the month” sitcom -- Entourage. It is basically a show about a movie star and the lackeys whom follow him around as they chase tail and the almighty buck.

Its funny, the characters and women are “well developed” and there are some great cameo’s -- I think we saw Val Kilmer playing some whacked out sherpa with really long hair ... classic.

Check it out Sundays at 10 -- or download some torrents.
