My Worst Ideas
I read once that for someone to have good ideas, they need to have a lot of ideas. I like that concept. It’s not uncommon for me to fall flat on my face with really bad ideas, but those that know me know that I have a LOT of ideas. Fortunately, it’s usually the good ones that people hear about.
So here I am humbled before you all, letting you know about two REALLY bad ideas I had once. It was to open two discussion forums for TurbanTalk.com and AlQaedaTalk.com – My idea was for them to be parodies. AlQaedaTalk.com would be a place for Al Qaeda operatives to get emotional support for things like dating, mingling at cocktail parties, getting along with their parents, etc.
I was very serious about opening these sites until more than a couple people mentioned that the parody might be lost on some people and the FBI would probably pay me a visit. That didn’t sound like fun to me, so I never went live with them. I DID however have logos created for them – and here they are as proof of some of my incredibly bad ideas…..
Oh, and if anyone ever questions your IQ – just say to them: “Yeah, I’m not the sharpest burrito in the elevator.” That will usually keep them busy thinking for a while so you can get back to work.
And they say Americans are jaded…..Hmpfff!
Hip Hop Translator
A few readers have entertained themselves here with translating my binary code posts, and recently my posts in Japanese. However, I’ve also been working on a new hip hop translator and I think it’s working quite well. Let’s try it on a recent post in one of my forums.

TRANSLATION:
Greetings fair administrator. I too have such sympathetic emotions such as yours expressed. Soon I will use Photoshop to optimize some .jpg’s or .png’s of my fraternity brothers and I courting ladies whilst partaking in summer recreational activities. But then lickety split I must hasten back to my studies and freshen up.
Darnitall. It’s been reminded to me that I have forgotten to work on my poetry writing in the style of Emily Dickinson for the upcoming essay contest.
Happy Bunny Ransom

Muahaha! My friend from the Great White North just sent me this. Now you need to realize that I recently posted an entire gallery of Happy Bunny graphics, and also conducted Brigadoon (including bagpiper) wearing a kilt – So this is all that craziness combined. Thank you!
Joke: Skinny Dipping
SKINNY DIPPING
An elderly man in Florida had owned a large farm for several years. He had a large pond in the back, fixed up nicely: Picnic tables, horseshoe courts, a volleyball court, and some apple and peach trees. The pond was properly shaped and fixed up for swimming.
One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond and look it over, as he hadn’t been there in a while. He grabbed a five-gallon bucket to bring back some fruit. As he neared the pond, he heard
voices shouting and laughing with glee. As he came closer, he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond. He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end.
One of the women shouted to him, “We’re not coming out until you leave!” The old man frowned, “I didn’t come down here to watch you ladies swim naked or make you get out of the pond naked.”
Holding the bucket up he said, “I’m here to feed the alligator.”
Old men can still think fast.
Simpsonize – How To Save as JPG Format
Well, like everyone else I had to try it. Go to SimpsonizeMe.com to upload a photo of yourself and “Simpsonize” it into a character like you would see in the Simpsons cartoon show. The website is pretty fun with entertaining animations as you work on it. They will step you through the process in a fun, non-technical way.
They show your photo as a flash animation which is a headache (read: impossible for most) to convert to .jpg or .gif. If you just want a .jpg format that you can post on the web or MySpace (like I did here) – then use your “Print Screen” key and crop the sc Ieenshot down in your favorite image editing program. If you don’t have PhotoShop you can download PhotoPlus for free from download.com to perform all your image editing, optimization and formatting of images.
Many of the backgrounds you can add to the photo have the Burger King logos. It was a good move by Burger King to NOT include their logo on the main solo pic. That does a lot for public goodwill and keeps the whole Simpsonize experience fun and fairly non-commercial.
Hey, it worked. I kind of feel like going to Burger King now…..
MySpace Funny Button Graphics
That was fast. In response to my Happy Bunny Image Gallery that I posted, my “twisted sister” from the Baffin Islands has sent me some of her favorite buttons in response. These are also great images for MySpace, forums and other social networking websites.

The Best Singles Ad Ever
This has got to be one of the best “singles ads” ever.
SINGLE BLACK FEMALE seeks male companionship, ethnicity unimportant. I’m a very good looking girl who LOVES to play. I love long walks in the woods, riding in your pickup truck, hunting, camping and fishing trips, cozy winter nights lying by the fire. Candlelight dinners will have me eating out of your hand. Rub me the right way and watch me respond. I’ll be at the front door when you get home from work, wearing only what nature gave me.
Kiss me and I’m yours. Call *phone number edited* and ask for Daisy.
