Spooky

After Katrina a lot changed. Some places closed to reopen months later and then there were some that stayed closed for good. This website shows the Six Flags that is still closed. It is so creepy and surreal. The Lurker would plan a trip around a place like this. Check the pictures

Kitty you fat

The Lurker laughed for a good long while. Fatty needs a diet or a bigger door.

I will put my foot up your babies........

Found this pic here ICK!

Trader Joes

If you feel the same as the Lurker then you should relate to the video. There is something quite awesome about Trader Joe's. Here is a video devoted to the store. Any store that doesn't play crappy Christmas music is high on my list.

Are those Captain EO glasses?

Aluminum foil wear

The Lurker found this on a tape the other day and just had to get this online. This never could have been a good idea. Maybe it was an April fools day joke on the public. That has to make more sense than actually selling it. The worst part is that I have seen at least one pair at a yard sale.

Just goin down to the oyster shak...dammit

Most of the time the Lurker objects to the use of a taser (fixin to get lit up) but maybe in this case it might trigger a brain cell or too.

Moo and Oink

Peta is going to be all over these guys. Making pigs and cows dance is just mean. The Lurker would buy from this store.

Mystery maple syrup stink of New York revealed

via Boing Boing by Cory Doctorow on 2/5/09
The mysterious, vexingly delicious smell of maple syrup that has been terrorizing New Yorkers for years, wafting about on its mysterious errands, has been run to ground. It is fenugreek, emitted from a New Jersey perfume plant.
The first wave arrived in October 2005, drawing thousands of New Yorkers onto the streets for a lively debate. Was it maple syrup? Caramel? A freshly baked pie? But as quickly as it arrived, it had vanished. Then, last month, the smell returned.

Both times, the city's police and 311 information lines were flooded with calls. Many feared bioterrorism cloaked in an pleasant aroma.

On Thursday, the city announced that the mystery had been solved. The source of the odor was a plant in North Bergen, N.J., which processes seeds of the herb fenugreek to produce fragrances.

Thanks Boing Boing for the ending to a strange phenomenon.

Ths just needs to stop

a twofur

OK this came out a day or two ago and alone it is pretty funny. It just a kid coming back from the dentist still a little drugged. The best part is the predictability of the net. All you got to do is sit back and wait for the remixes. So to that you have the original and the metal version.
The Lurker loves the line "is this real life?"

The Lurker for LARPing

The Lurker is not going to say that he did not LARP but he did not look this bad. This was found on Google's street view

The Lurker's favorite so far

The Japanese aim low

OK the Japanese gameshow ideas have finally gotten to the bottom of the barrel of ideas. The show is about getting guys to say something very fast and if they screw it up they get a stick to the boys.
Um enjoy....?

Whhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!

OK so they are doing a GIJOE movie which I want no part of but then I heard Brendan Fraser was in as Gung Ho which I find thoroughly funny and then I see the freakin worst.
They offered THE ROCK the role of Hector Deldgado. Who is Hector you say? Only The Lurker's favorite character Shipwrek. A smart alec sailor with a back talking parrot.He is awesome!! and then they so this. The Rock? Come on!
The geek moment was brought to you by the GIJOE movie.

The Lurker liked this Pope better

At least he didn't bring in Nazi sympathizers.

Pickin winners on Youtube

The Lurker came across this while looking for New York information and this is what came up. Youtube does bring us humanity at it's very best.
Too bad they stopped the Lurker from embedding it. Click here to see the found gold
