I really can't tell if it is satire

Sometime I am worried about my ability to detect satire. I mean consider this website I found. On the face of it, anyone who declares the earth is fixed in space is obviously being sarcastic...

Except as I age, I realize there are people who do belief this.

Weep for the future of our species.

Sustainable development

Talk about farce.

How can a man be elected to be the head of the UN Commission on sustainable development who has actively worked to destroy his own country's future?

I wonder who the 26 muppets are who voted for him. Hopefully no one from South Africa.

Pure fucking Kafka.

Hello Germany, take your nutcase back!

We have enough locally grown nutcases so take yours back Germany

The apartheid regime was part of a global plot by the pharmaceutical industry, according to vitamin entrepreneur Dr Matthias Rath.
Okay, he starts of a a conspiracy theorist. Many of them on the internet. What makes him so special?

He also said the operations of the Treatment Action Campaign (TAC) were "almost a copy" of Hitler's brown shirt storm troopers.
Holy Godwin Batman! Hitlers zombie is coming for your brains!

The court case was to have got under way in April, but has been postponed because Rath filed his affidavit 13 months late.

You know that has to be some type of lame record. A year and a month. That is a special type of slow.

Come on Germany, own your crazy, take him back

The report on the Mooo! vies

The night of the Mooo! vies went well although some people who I really wanted to show up (looking at you Barend and Karlien) couldn't make it.

One thing that was interesting is how bad people are at predicting the future. Especially the technological aspects.

Well at least it was fun, regardless of the low attendance and early technical differences.

The Mooo! vies

So it seems my resolutions are as houses made from straw. Not very durable. But perhaps, I was trying to force myself too much. 500 words a day? What was I thinking?

In any case, my current lifestyle (almost all work and little play) is unsatisfactory and I have decided that I should be socializing more.

One of the things that I have thought of to improve the quality of my social life is to spend more time with my friends. To achieve this I will be holding bi-weekly dvd screenings on Saturdays.

The first such evening will be held on February 3rd 2007.

How it will work is that I will bring a collection of DVD disks and anyone else is also encouraged to bring one or more DVD’s with them (if they choose to do so)

I will then randomly select two of the DVDs to provide the evenings entertainment. I will also be making the snacks (I enjoy cooking).

All that the guests really need to bring are themselves, which of course does not prevent them from bringing whatever they desire to assist in the festivities.

The theme for this initial evening is “Dystopia” and the films that I will bring are the following (BTW I have watched none of these films yet)

  • Metropolis
  • Brazil
  • Soylent Green
  • Fahrenheit451
  • 1984
  • The Lathe of Heaven
So if you know who I am and where my office is, feel free to drop by. It starts at 17:00 for 17:30 and we will be watching two DVDs
