It was consistently the funniest stuff then on the Internet, as neither The Onion nor fark.com had been invented yet. It was discontinued when Bil Keane made an apparently heartfelt personal appeal to the webmaster (as we called them then, you see). There was an outcry from the sick-and-twisted fan base, but the proprieter said no one would be so heartless as to continue after hearing what Keane said privately to him, but he refused to elaborate.

Congratulations -- you have made me wonder what Bil Keane thinks of Nietzsche, and I guarantee the circumstances that could have brought that about were limited in number.

I believe Mr. Keane passed some years back.

the Craig's list killer- the story about him dressing as a mammogram machine ("put your breasts in here...") for Halloween is being pitched like it shows how weird he was, but I sort of find that clever, like at a college party that would be a great move, wouldn't it?

Weird for a med student at a med student party; definitely a winner in college--depending on the school, of course.

speaking of saggy, I don't watch the Office, but I did for the first time in a long time last night. What the hell happened to Stringer Bell? Man that must have been a rough last few years.

It took several ads for the movie to realize that was him.

ETA: I didn't realize he was on The Office -- I just thought Hank had seen the zillion commercials for his new movie Obsessed and actually noticed someone other than Ali Larter and Beyonce.
