Local Sheriff Suspects Al-Qaeda or Teens

Ok its from the Onion.

BARABOO, WI—Sauk County Sheriff Virgil “Butch” Steinhorst announced Tuesday that he believes a recent rash of Baraboo-area crimes was perpetrated by the al-Qaeda terrorist network or teenagers.

“In this day and age, it’s important for law-enforcement officials to consider global threats as well as local ones,” Steinhorst said. “We could be dealing with an al-Qaeda sleeper cell attempting to collect information that they could use to plan a terrorist strike or some of those goth kids who knocked over that mailbox. Neither group has any respect for the law.”

Another dumb linking policy

This is just so silly. Here are the linking policies for the Olympics’ website.

For your protection and ours we have established a procedure for parties wishing to introduce a link to the ATHENS 2004 website on their site. By introducing a link to the ATHENS 2004 official Website on your site you are agreeing to comply with the ATHENS 2004 Website General Terms and Conditions. In order to place a link embedded in copy interested parties should:

a) Use the term ATHENS 2004 only, and no other term as the text referent

b) Not associate the link with any image, esp. the ATHENS 2004 Emblem (see paragraph below)

c) Send a request letter to the Internet Department stating:
Short description of site
Reason for linking
Unique URL containing the link (if no unique URL than just the main URL)
Publishing period
Contact point (e-mail address)

For your protection? Protection from what? You have to use the term Athens 2004? So if I link to them calling them dumbasses, does that mean I am in violation of their policies and not under their protection anymore?

Stinky Meat Project

I have a feeling it didn’t this project didn’t add much to science.

Here’s what happened when I took 3 kinds of meat, 19 days, and 1,000,000 maggots, and stuck them in the yard of my unwitting neighbor.

Of course, the neighbor eventually found the meat in his yard. Fortunately, I wasn’t arrested – so I am free to do it all over again.

I only made it to day 5. I was eating dinner and didn’t want to risk going further. Good luck to those who do.

UPDATE
Oh, I guess the link would be important to the story. Oops. Thanks PVC.
