Here’s another take on the supposed “last” For Better or Worse Strip. Nothing like a really mean parody of a really sweet strip… Week in and week out, the writers and cast of The Daily Show lay bare the stream of inanity that is modern cable news coverage. If you haven’t checked it out in a while, do. They’ve really hit their stride unraveling the ridiculous narratives being shat out by the 24-hour news beast. But as edgy [...] Whoa!Thanks, Gawker.com! Here’s proof of this shocking revelation! Rory Gibson, weekend editor of the Courier-Post, a newspaper in a place called Brisbane (not the real Brisbane in San Mateo County, but one they claim to have in the antipodes).

A nail ended up in Chandler’s skull. A doctor borrowed [...] On the Move at 01SJ By Michael S. Gant IF NOTHING ELSE, 01SJ has been good for my health—it encourages getting up and out in downtown San Jose. Think of it as the Wii of digital-arts festivals. My Friday amble was accompanied by a series of subversive koans posted on light poles—“Reality can be [...] |
