I clearly have a bad case of “the blogs” today (like diarrhea but different). I just got this email from my favorite record label, Alternative Tentacles, that I felt was compelling enough to reproduce here:
“A short time ago East Bay Ray faxed Jello Biafra a proposal to sell the DK’s version of “Viva Las [...]
The Kyoto protocol came into effect today, all be it a little belated and without the support of Australian and the US, thanks to Russia who have finally signed on.

It would seem that, with regards to Robert Hill’s denial of Australians being [...]
…and another thing. If you want to get rich quick, you can do it by fucking government departments and local government in the arse by launching a web page that you can only view in Internet Explorer.
