and his hair isn't bright red... it's reddish brown. And his sideburns ... well i can't even begin to say.
Red heads are the sexiest! We all know it.
If the middle east could get their shit togher, they could counter bush in a heartbeat. dubya doens't have to have any internationalist expertiste at this point.
I got my Neil Hamburger CD in the mail yesterday morning. He's an awful comedien, but he's pretty damn good at it. My favorite joke so far: "Why did Julia Roberts rub shit all over her vagina? because she was horny ... "

Monica and I talked tonight. She's diggin on some redhead dude with sideburns named Josh.

She's not in love, but she's toltally in love. What is it about the beavers and redheads. I cornerd my little redhead sweetie in the women's bathroom at work tonight, in an attempt to put the moves on her, and she spent 5 minutes listening to her voice mail on her celluar phone. Apparently her Mom calls her 5 times a day. I spent the entire time gazing at the tampon machine, and listening to her Mom's voice mails. That's my life.

Matt Bright. Hey Man, Whaddya think of Kim Morman. She's the redhead that I wanna masticate.

Man, I wish I could have been around for Nixon. There was a great line from Hunter S. Thomspon in one of his letters to Johnny Depp. He said, "like Richard Nixon once said, "We could do that, but it would be wrong.""
I don't know what the context was when Nixon said that, and I wonder if Joe N. does. That is comedy gold.

And all we have is W. Nixon inspired the hatred of an entire generation.

Here is to you, Tricky Dick, here is to you.
Joe, what picture were you trying to display? The source of the picture should be the the format http://users.bigpond.net.au/jellery/yosemite-sam.gif

http:// is the transfer protocol
users.bigpond.net.au is the domain
/jellery is the directory
yosemite-sam.gif is the name of the picture file, in Graphic Interchange Format.
You need a closing bracket (>) on that too.

Yosemite Sam Pow! Pow!
I just finished watching "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" for the 15th time, this time with commentary by the actors and the producer. This is one of my favorite movies, and certainly the movie I never get tired of watching. I've watched Fear and Loathing the most out of any film. The Criterion version that just came out has a bunch of extras that are worth a look.
Matt, you CANNOT post pictures here. But you can link to other pictures already up on the web using this nifty html code:

First, you need the URL (e.g. http://www.artnetgallery.com/graphics/art/roberto_matta/ComiqueTrippe.jpg) of where the picture is located. This can be found in the "properties" when you right-click on the picture. Then you put that URL into the following section of code, in between the quotation marks, as the image source, abbreviated "src."

<img src="http://www.artnetgallery.com/graphics/art/roberto_matta/ComiqueTrippe.jpg">

And the output of that line looks like this when published.

Artist:
Roberto Matta

Title:  Comique

I am so proud to be associated with you people. Seriously, it warms my heart. I'd always envisioned this blog to be like a room full of people all screaming at the same time, making an inconprehensible wall of noise, and it looks like my dream is finally coming true.

Speaking of dreams, If my soul goes to the center of the Universe when I'm sleeping, then that means that they are ways to bypass the speed of light. Quantum physics and all that needs to be rethought.

Alt+Left Arrow is like pressing the "Back" button on your browser. I've been trying to figure out this shortcut for a year now. Somebody mentioned it off-hand in my user interface online class.
Matt Bright... LOVED Lucinda ! and yes my fellow beavers.. it's not 3 something in the a.m. and i WILL be the one you are driving beside on the I55 on my way to peoria at 7 this morning. I am stupid. I do stupid things. Happiness creates ignorance for me. I've only just begun!

I know it might be passe to write about the Iraqi-American war (at least here at the beaver), but I still can't help but wonder if it would be a better idear to let weapons inspectors help us eradicate Saddam's biological weapons before we go to war with him - at least for the soldier's sake.
DO NOT focus on socio/political opinions in this blog! And I'm not telling you how to post pictures. That would be dangerous.
Instead, post a link to your favorite picture. Ok? Good.
Good morning Beavers!!!! Zinc, I can see how you might get confused with all of the name changing going on around here. Welcome Matt Bright for he is a very intelligent bloke. You will get along Famously!
Matt... I don't wish to enter that 9-5 world at this point in my life. I don't wanna grow up. I'm a toys r us kid!
And maybe I should have said hello to your sister?

and matt bright... here is the breakdown.... vance ampersand = Matt K
Zinc Rambler = Joe Natale Matt K IV used to = Monica now she is monica again. i think that gets us up to speed.
Any more questions can be directed to my secretary.
I said hi to Matt Bright today on AIM and he promptly shut his AIM down. It made me feel.............
well it made me feel unloved damnit. (sorry, i'm emotional today)
okay... so I am semi unofficially out of love. And I'm changing my name back to Monica. Matt IV isn't working for me. Matt Bright welcome to the blog. Vance I'm sorry to hear that you got a ticket. My most important question is .................. Did you kids have fun at the show on saturday night?
You bet your ass I did! I was going 80 miles an hour and not wearing a seatbelt.
I'm so glad I only got $60.00 in fines this trip to Bloomington. I got away cheap. I call it "My donation to help with the Illinois budget crisis."

Allright gang, Google bought Prya Labs, which runs Blogger.com. Pretty soon, anyone will be able to type in "I'm in love" or "Little Runnaway boy" or "Captain Underpants" and get The Wily Beaver as a result. You see, Google is going to incorporate all the blog entries, over a million of them, which come from a Pyra labs database. Right now, one of the only ways to get our blog is to type The wily beaver A skilled engineer. This is because the Google search engine searches the Internet for web pages, many blogs are kept in private databases, like Blogspot.

So, since blogging is getting more competitive, I'm gonna need better work from all of you. We want to be number one in weblogs. Go Team.

Oh, and Michael, see me after the meeting. We have to talk about your spelling narrative coherency.
Sorry everyone, my dog got loose.

I'm tempted to kick Matt Bright off our blog if he is just going to post high-class toilet humor. I only like low-class toilet humor.

That Daredevil movie looks to be an opportunistic turd. Fucking Hollywood moneyfuckers. I keep wanting to like Ben Affleck because he a hyper fratboy, but that is the same reason I dislike him.

I think Mike, you are on to something with the Death of Love. We should call this the Age of Nothing, since the material world seems to be falling away. We have been holograms since technology came alive in the 50's.

You watch, TV and radio is eating itself. The conservatives dominate talk-radio because politics is the past, and independent forward thinkers have left that media stage. That is why Donahue or any other "liberal" show does poor in the ratings game: The forward thinkers have moved on to RELEVANT areas of cognition. Not the old bullshit hardware world of nations, senators, oil, drugs, and guns. That world is for the dinosaurs who refuse to face up to the present.

Don't pay attention to the TV. But watch it carefully and you will see it disintegrate.

With love from the Age of Love,
Vance

Matt, I am open to new contributers, but here at the Wily Beave we have an extensive interview process.

Question one: Who the hell do you think you are? (Who are you thinking of asking to write? Are they mentally unstable? If so, they are on.)
Chandi sent me this and Matt, I thought of you.

Interesting, I didn't know.....

Castoreum

Animal scent markings are notorious for smelling terrible. But castoreum is different. It has a musky smell that some people describe as van...
