The Noodles at Cal (Wonderlic Scores)
(This is 90% Danzig, with some great data; my small contribution is the Analysis section after the scores and before the sources) I was catching up on my RSS feed yesterday and I came across a report that Mario Manningham of Michigan scored a ’6′ on his Wonderlic IQ test. A fricking ’6′?? I thought [...]
It’s 9/11, A Somber Time For Reflection and …
…It was an Inside Job! INSIDE JOB DAMNIT! Welcome to the Bay Area, where the crazy never ends. 9/11 Truth March and Power to the Peaceful Festival [Zombie Time]
Tracking How Late Your Bus Is
From Our Sturdy Golden Bear, a nice little tip on tracking the AC Transit bus you need to embark on. You lucky devils get to use your bus passes now. Although you’ll probably still have plenty of trouble finding the 51. [NextBus]
The Sixth Man Can Sure Lay Up
Monta Ellis’s aggression might have disappeared as the playoff run progressed this past June, but it seems just like Mikael Pietrus, he too knows what it means to get down, get low, get hyphy. At least that’s what I think he was doing. Monta Ellis Dancing [YouTube]
Reaching Critical Mass in San Francisco
Remember when bikes were used as tools of peace and love? In case you forgot, we’ll treat you to smoking hot, pre-Full House Lori Loughlin above spreading the love. Look at those two glide. It makes you wonder why they haven’t been sent to the Middle East as peacekeepers yet. The terrorists would be overawed [...]
So, Another Three More Years Before He’s Homeless?
I’m not a very diligent human being. In fact, I could probably walk past a thousand people today and they’d all be working hard, brains clicking, and figuring out the problems of the Earth (aka some random bullshit to put on their next paper). But I learned awhile back that laziness doesn’t get you much [...]
756: What It Means to Everyone Else
Sorry we were away for a day. But we just felt the need to come up with something special to say about our main man Barry Bonds. There were just so many words that came to mind here that we couldn’t put them down onto paper without the result being a complete mess of a [...]
In Theory, This Could Work…
In another one of those “sounds great on paper” ideas, you can now move between the Bay and LA for as little as a dollar and as much as nine. We will let you ponder whether you will enjoy the company of your equally cheap passengers. The intercity express bus company Megabus.com plans to begin [...]
One Home Run Away From Never Mentioning Barry Bonds Again
One thing that’s always annoying about baseball (not our favorite sport) is its insistence on the sanctity of its records. Oh really? Roger Maris’s 61 home runs gets an asterisk because he played eight more games, yet Mark McGwire and Sosa are paraded around with their bulging muscles and supplements? Babe Ruth gets a pass [...]
Lazy Days, Perfect Timelapse
We’re still suffering through the summer malaise (ideas are formulating, but we won’t be revealing them until next week), so until then here is some lovely footage of LA and SF at night, sped up for your artistic sensibilities. Amazing timelapse video [YouTube]
