How can the Stars lose twice in a row, during the playoffs, at home?!?!?!? What is going on in Dallas? Is there something in the water?

I am beginning to feel really stupid for predicting that there would only be four games played in this series, now because if the Stars keep this up, I may be right!

RIAA Sues Family Without a PC

America’s leading anti-piracy body the RIAA, has sued a family based in Georgia for illegal music file sharing, despite the fact that they don’t even own a computer.

The family head James Walls was shocked by the court filing and was left wondering about the futility of the lawsuit against them. There is presently speculation by the Walls family that the previous residents may be to blame because the Walls have only resided at their present address “for less than a year” and that they “don’t even have a computer”.

At least I get to keep watching

Ahhhhhhhh

I think it’s great that they’ve got this map gallery of religion up at Valparaiso University, but they forgot the Pastafarians!

Thankfully Chad made up just such a map so that we can see where those touched by his noodly appendage are residing. Thanks Chad!

According to his MySpace page, the 41-year-old San Bruno, California, resident is single, a Sagittarius, a nonsmoker and nondrinker, and counts an online stripper among his six friends. But California’s online database of registered sex offenders offers a different profile of the same man: convictions for forced sodomy, oral sex and “lewd and lascivious acts” — all with a person under the age of 14.

A 22-year-old man in San Francisco comes off as a typical college student on MySpace, professing a love for beat poetry, nature and obscure coffee house bands. His profile doesn’t mention that he’s a convicted child molester.

Wired News ran the names of randomly selected registered sex offenders in San Francisco and neighboring Sonoma County through MySpace’s user search engine, and turned up no fewer than five men whose self-reported names, photographs, ages, astrological signs, locations and (in two instances) heights matched those of profiles on the state’s online sex offender registry.
