Here are four stories that help signal the end of the world is near:

1. There's the story about a guy who attends and works at a university in Indianapolis (IUPUI).  He was reading a book from the schol library about how Notre Dame fought racism by running off the KKK in the 1920s.  A coworker saw him reading the book and was offended.  Yes, the person was offended by his anti-racism book. 
   
   The school's affermative action officer investigated the accusations and concluded, "You used extremely poor judgment by insisting on openly reading this book related to a historically and racially abhorrent subject in the presence of your black coworkers."  She later went on to say, "We conclude that your conduct constitutes racial harrassment."
   
   
2. There's the story about shop owners in Montreal.  They have been told that they are in violation of the law if they sweep or otherwise clean up the sidewalks in front of their shops.  Why?  Because that's a union job, and the city has an agreement with the sidewalk cleaner union.  This is the same union who, according to a 2006 Montreal city investigation, required 10 workers to fill nine potholes over a three-day span.
   
   
3. There's the story about the girl in England arrested for racism.  Apparently, in England, being racist is a crime.  Well this girl was told to sit with a group of Asian students at school, but she said she didn't want to because the students didn't speak English. 
   
   She said to her teacher, "I'm not being funny, but can I change groups because I can't understand them?"  The teacher responded by calling the police.
   
   
4. This is the best of all.  There's a story about these women who have to struggle to get by on "a $637 Social Security check and $102 in food stamps."  The title of the article is "For some Ohioans, Even Meat Is Out of Reach."
   
   Seriously!  Read the article, it's unbelievable!  I couldn't make this up if I tried.  Only in America would there be an article about how these two behemoths can't afford food.  Is there any doubt now as to why we are the laughing stock of the world?  These people can't afford food?  I don't even know what to say.

What the hell is wrong with this world? 

Schools in Scotland aren't letting kids make Father's Day cards because kids who live with single moms or lesbian parents might be embarrassed.  Authorities say the schools are adjusting to be "sensitive to the changing pattern of family life."

Seriously.  Read more.

This post will be a quickie.  Microsoft has set up a new add-on to their search engine. 

Every time you use SearchAndGive.com, Microsoft will donate 1 cent to the charity or school of your choice. 

I've already given Elbridge Elementary ten cents.  What a philanthropist!  Enjoy the dime, kiddies!

Oh man, how cool is this?  I found this site where you can create your own mix tapes and play them or share them online with your friends.

You just type in the names of songs and it goes and finds them and adds them to the tape.  Sweet!

Here's a 90s mix that some chick named Amber made.  Oh yeah, and it's all free.

Matt from WhereTheHellIsMatt has just finished his latest video.  It's a great reminder of how small the world really is, and how alike we all are.

Here is the 2008 video.  Also check out 2006 and 2005.

Oh my.  Here's the video.

And heck, while you're at it, you might as well Obama Girl vs. Giuliani Girl.

Oh yeah, and Pastor Manning of course! Obama is a long-legged mack daddy...

I'm not sure if it will last, but right now, it's free after rebate still pretty cheap.  If you haven't heard of it, OneCare is an anti-virus, anti-spyware, automatic updater and optimizer made by Microsoft.

For free, I might as well buy it.  Here's the link.

Update: This is subscription software and the subscription is for 12 months.  You can (and should) effectively extend your subscription to 15 months by installing the 90-day trial, then waiting to enter your license key at the end of the trial period.

Update 2: The rebate period is over.  Now it's a straight $23.99 with free shipping.  You can still get it as cheap as $15.99 plus shipping from Amazon Marketplace.

Apparently, some company in Silicon Valley has created a freako super-bug that can eat wood chips and crap oil.

They take yeast or E. Coli and do some genetic hoopijoob to them and whaddya know, the bugs poop out oil. The article says,

Because crude oil (which can be refined into other products, such as petroleum or jet fuel) is only a few molecular stages removed from the fatty acids normally excreted by yeast or E. coli during fermentation, it does not take much fiddling to get the desired result.

The article also says they don't want to use corn because the Mexicans get all mad and rioty and stuff when tortilla prices get too high.

These guys think that they can produce oil for as cheap as $50 a barrel.  More power to 'em.  Maybe in the future, we can use the bug poop gas to power our personal airplanes!
