~ we have not forgotten this freaking log in fact, while sleeping on the living room floor last night, a dream of updating this log was envisioned. however, events have been less than remarkable lately, for the week has been spent packing supplies, moving goods to the boys’ and girls’ club, and throwing worthless furniture into the alley behind the angry red offices. all time is being spent preparing for the big move, or spent reading in the front yard.

~ it has come to our attention that there is some movie award show or other in los angeles tonight. we can promise not only will we not seek out this year’s ceremony; we will also promise to take no part in the viewing of next year’s contenders: ‘say it isn’t so’, ‘tomcats’, or ‘see spot run’.

~ saving the best for last, it looks like macedonia has finally decided to get involved in some ethnic persecution. how on earth did these people get along for most of the century as yugoslavia, just to sell out their neighbors in a couple of years’ time?

~ seems that napster use is currently 60% less, now that they began blocking the transfer of any song that the riaa demands them to block. there is an application called catnap [w] which scrambles your – otherwise banned – song titles and enables other catnap users to see them. in the likely event that napster puts an end to this, there is always audiogalaxy [w], audiognome [w], limewire [w], or one of the other gnutella clients [w]…

~ go ahead and honor the virulent spread of catholicism to ireland with your green beer, green rivers, and green bagels…we’ll be on hotline [w]

~ ‘puffy’ is still a punk; more so, because he can’t take the rap. weak.

~ though it has been a couple of days, we are still tired of hearing the question of whether or not the grammy awards are given to acknowledge important contributions to music or just to acknowledge a high volume of sales. yearly, this question appears, in every corporate awards show; yearly, the people posing it feel as though they have discovered an original viewpoint. however, in a study unscientifically conducted by the angry red planet, it has been determined that the people who actually give a durn about the grammy awards – either watching them, worrying about them, talking about them – are exactly the same people that value the music that brings in lots of money. it is amazing that anyone is surprised when drollery wins awards, considering the award show itself is drollery. anyone who thinks that a freaking television show somehow should set higher standards are the biggest fools, because the show itself is an aspect of the low standards of entertainment. regardless, eminem is a punk-ass piece of crap.

~ why hasn’t anyone fessed up to driving their submarine into the side of a boat and killing 9 people? perhaps they are waiting for the u.s. to bomb iraq, and divert some of the attention away from them. little did they realize, no one in the u.s. cares if iraq is bombed – again – anymore than they care if its navy kills japanese civilians. heck, the u.s. navy still has not admitted to shooting down a u.s. commercial airliner off long island way back in the 1990’s.

~ ‘…wasn’t bad, so i had one more for dessert…’

~ comics, ink: ‘i see the daredevil annual is out!’
 the angry red planet: ‘it’s a regular issue isn’t it?’
 c,i: ‘i know…i was joking that daredevil only came out three times last year.’

 t.a.r.p.: ‘and two of these were the same story…’
 c,i: ‘uh-huh’
 t.a.r.p.: ‘well, i guess i save this money this way.’

~ …and, we get to smirk at the sight of a quesada cover dated ‘1999’ on the march 2001 issue of daredevil. even the codeless kazys.net gets out more regularly than the man without fear.

~ ‘the last thing i needed first thing this morning…’

~ would be to have a bigoted, homophobic son of a bitch confirmed as attorney general; however, cnn [w] reports this is precisely what happened. it really becomes tiresome to endure a government who insists on degrading the quality of your nation….

~ so clinton’s last hours are spent nobly pardoning his drug-peddling brother roger, while ignoring political prisoner leonard peltier [w]… what a jackass.

~ inauguration quote: ‘blonde, shoot this piece of shit, will ya?’ -joe cabot, ‘reservoir dogs’

~ people who sneak around a school at night and tear down the signs or stickers of someone else’s political candidate are filthy cowards. what could they be worried about, that someone could become familiar with another choice and actually proceed to vote for him?

~ no one at the angry red planet can remember the exact quotation, nor to whom it is attributed, but there is something like; ‘the hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in times of great moral crisis, take no stand at all.’ notwithstanding the lack of evidence verifying the existence of hell, this is exactly the kind of place that the united states of america’s ambassadors to the united nations deserve for refusing to act in the face of the israeli army’s violence against palestinian civilians….

~ this week, we at the angry red planet have determined that anyone who takes a dog to a public place, such as a computer lab in an architectural school, is a jackass.
