The U.S. House of Representatives this week overwhelmingly passed a bill allowing flight crews to carry guns aboard aircraft, a measure strongly supported by pilots, who boasted they could now be both armed and loaded.

You don’t realize just how fucked up this world is until you read about Sesame Street introducing an HIV-positive Muppet. Good grief.

“You maniacs! You blew it up! Oh damn you!…”
Hours of fun with the Charlton Heston Over-Act-O-Meter.

Don’t we all want to be duct taped to the wall every so often? Sure we do. These guys are there to assist you.

Hi. My name is Mr. Nice. As you can see I haven’t got any arms or hands. Would you like to see me dance?

and there: FZ & The Mothers rare posters, includes the cover of a Freak Out newspaper; a cool, somehow psychedelic illustration by Steven Cerio, and this affiche saying “tickets only $1,50 (in advance) or $2 at the door” (!!!) I wonder who the “surprize guest” was…

In just a couple of hours HotPoop, The Weblog will have existed exactly one year. Was it as good for you as it was for me? Wait. Don’t answer that. ;)

Aaah, finally The Big Note has updated its Musibrarium section! You’ll find 5 covers from The Persuasions, two Zappa mini-concerts (10 tracks alltogether), and 5 songs from TBN’s very own SOFA!

Ola AntVille! (I really have no idea what I’m doing in this BlogWar but it sure is interesting)

“Oh so you don’t think I can get down from this cross!?”: Jesus Gets Mad.

Looks like The Dot Mil Guy is going to have to put on a swimsuit: “The military platform, dubbed Sealand, is the base of internet hosting company HavenCo which is bucking the downturn of the dot.com economy.
The company has been exploiting Sealand’s self-proclaimed sovereignty to offer an offshore data haven, free of government interference.”

We’ve had a couple of unexpected argentinian buddies linking to us recently. They are Lucas, from Korochi Industries, and todo mentira. Although I don’t understand one word they’re saying (my spanish tongue refuses duty beyond anything as elaborate as melon con jamon de mi corazon), I’m sure it’s eloquent, intelligent, and for a just cause. Dr Sharleena: enlighten me!

About half an hour ago, my unemployed nextdoor neighboor rang my doorbell and asked me if by chance I hadn’t erroneously received her wellfare check in my mailbox. I did vaguely recall shredding up several letters because they were not adressed to me, and throwing them away. Half a ton of cat litter and expired TV-dinners later, the wellfare check has been returned to the rightful owner. All three shreds of it. And they say I ain’t got no heart, haah… Time to hit the shower.

Some time ago, Barry’s Imaginary Publisher and I noticed HotPoop had a number of hits from a certain/s .mil (US Military) domain. We’ve been having lotsa a speculations and conjectures from then (wether or not he/she was a Zappafan, or if he/she was here because some big ugly superior was ordering him to read blogs mentioning the words mariah “carey’s nipples”, “top ten nude scenes”, “quiz” “mental age” zappa politics, etc) Either one case of another, the Dot Mil guy (as we’ve been calling him since then) has been visiting us pretty often…So here’s a bunch of links for you, Dot Mil: Murphy’s Military Laws, a useful military codename generator, and one to bookmark: Buster’s Battery. Enjoy!
