notemily:

In Knoxville, Tennessee, a white supremacist group, VNN Vanguard Nazi/KKK, attempted to hold a hate rally. Then the clowns showed up….

“White Power!” the Nazi’s shouted, “White Flour?” the clowns yelled back running in circles throwing flour in the air and raising separate letters which spelt “White Flour”.

“White Power!” the Nazi’s angrily shouted once more, “White flowers?” the clowns cheers and threw white flowers in the air and danced about merrily.

“White Power!” the Nazi’s tried once again in a doomed and somewhat funny attempt to clarify their message, “ohhhhhh!” the clowns yelled “Tight Shower!” and held a solar shower in the air and all tried to crowd under to get clean as per the Klan’s directions.

At this point several of the Nazi’s and Klan members began clutching their hearts as if they were about to have a heart attack. Their beady eyes bulged, and the veins in their tiny narrow foreheads beat in rage. One last time they screamed “White Power!”

The clown women thought they finally understood what the Klan was trying to say. “Ohhhhh…” the women clowns said. “Now we understand…”, “WIFE POWER!” they lifted the letters up in the air, grabbed the nearest male clowns and lifted them in their arms and ran about merrily chanting “WIFE POWER! WIFE POWER! WIFE POWER!”

The only time I think I’ve ever whole heartedly appreciated anything about clowns.

{WTF} berlin gives fixies das boot [good blogs]:

“In Berlin, fixed-gear bicycles are now illegal. The news comes from The Local, and English-language German news site:

In a country where cyclists are expected to have a working bell on their bikes, it was probably only a matter of time before fixies fell afoul of the law in Germany. … Since there’s no freewheel on a fixie, the pedals continue to rotate as long as the bike is moving forward. This means the rider either has to slow the bike by fighting the momentum or brake by locking up the back wheel to skid to a stop.

Seeing what they considered a growing danger to traffic safety, Berlin police announced this spring they would begin cracking down on fixie riders. Since only April, they’ve confiscated 18 bicycles.

“Friday Night Throwdown” - Paper Magazine

Male models vs. real boxers in the ring. Dear Jesus!

We’ve been hearing tell of “Friday Night Throwdown” (a.k.a. “Model Fight Club”) for months now. Some of us have even breezed through the somewhat exclusive event featuring male models risking damage to their money-making mugs in boxing matches with local pugilists… read more [the cut/nymag]

hey y’all! this is my good friend Angel. he says hey! (one of the nicest guys in Atlanta). True story.

Angel! I love this guy. On Friday he’s leading two grassroots tours of the Beltline. (For non-Atlanta folks, the Beltline is a 22-mile parks, trails and transit loop proposed to circle the city.)

"The Dying Fall" by J.G. Ballard [guardian.co.uk]

Wed, 10 Jun 2009 18:12:20 -0400

"The Dying Fall" by J.G. Ballard [guardian.co.uk]:

The indispensible Free Speculative Fiction Online site just posted links to two Ballard stories: One, “The Dying Fall,” is about the Leaning Tower Of Pisa collapsing, and it originally appeared in Interzone in 1996, and was reprinted in the Guardian newspaper. It’s savagely solipsistic, one man’s self-centered interpretation of a huge disaster, and it has a nice sting at the end. [io9]

The Autobiography of J.G.B. [NewYorker]

Wed, 10 Jun 2009 15:34:00 -0400

The Autobiography of J.G.B. [NewYorker]:

“The Autobiography of J.G.B.,” is a sly trick, since it’s not at all autobiographical as far as I can tell. It’s the story of a man who wakes up one day to find that all the other people are gone, along with the dogs and cats. And unlike the protagonists of every other “last man” stories, he actually winds up feeling pretty okay about it. Being the only surviving human (as far as he can tell) turns out to be sort of a cushy gig, except that it leaves him with mysterious work to do — which we never learn the nature of. [io9]

The Pres rotates between the Naval, Air Force, Coast Guard, and Westpoint military academy graduaions every year

2009 must be a year for Obama at the US Naval Academy.

I was lucky to see Bill Clinton as incumbent pres at my brother’s US Coast Guard Academy graduation in 2000. It was a similar scene… in a nearby town.
