The tragedy of the commons, played out before our very eyes.

Hey! Great idea! Agree with everything you say!

Check out the new information included in the "Career" section for acclaimed musical-writer Stephen Sondheim!

In Les Miserables, a guy steals a loaf of bread and he never hears the end of it.

awww...damnit, are you telling me this is YEARS old?

Son of a...

As funny a thread of Democratic self-importance as has ever been constructed.

And like the new Dusty, FYI.

That last one was me. Sorry.

If only the comments kept my 411...

try Nakba

Too bad. That idea, even if it's old, really had potential.

April,

Did cedarford write that Nakba entry?

Tool.

pretty good read Birkel.

So far I've gotten to;
"The psychological underpinnings of the politics of "low taxes, traditional family values, and a strong military" are avarice, anxiety and aggression (the three As!) which in turn are natural outgrowths of our post-capitalist, post-modernist and post-statist world. This is key."

Heh, heh.
(giggle)
Bwaaa haa haa
MWAAA HA HA HA HAAAA HA HA HAAAAA
(rolling on floor in helpless gales of laughter)

"Late to the Party" still seems a good name for your radio show. It's a recurring theme here. But hey, you're at least "fashionably late" as we say in the South.

Oh Dear Lord it gets better.
Now, some of these people seem to be alright.

But they think that corporations are tools of the debbil and run by aliens that take the benefits to some other solar system.

I can't even stand it.

Excitable Andy is getting heaped on by "Big Blogging":

Right now, somewhere in Hollywood, Tom Cruise is grabbing Katie Holmes's ass and imaging it's James Van Der Beek's.

That's so depressing...

Re: Nakba

Damn they "fix" these things fast - I just made a few improvements and they took them right out.

I think that it is safe to say that Wikpedia is a hyper-speed demonstration of Derbyshire's law of organizations.

>I do that-- I go from "no opinion" to "volcanic black hatred" in 5.3 seconds.

I went to black hatred for Wikipedia in 5.3 seconds about three weeks ago after I read on Blogs for Terri about the frustrating time they were having trying to correct Wiki's article about Terri. Whatever facts the BFT people tried to put in were instantly removed.

Ace--

Hi.

It's me, Dave.

I'm not saying ANYTHING.

Except "hi."

Cheers,
Dave at Garfield Ridge

Well, let's see how long it takes them to fix THIS

He has been married twice, to Mimi Rogers (May 9, 1987 - February 4, 1990) and later Nicole Kidman (December 24, 1990 - August 8, 2001). Cruise was, for a short time, romantically linked with Penelope Cruz, the lead actress in his film Vanilla Sky. In March 2004, he announced that his relationship with Penelope Cruz had ended in January. As of April 2004 he started dating Katie Holmes, while secretly desiring James Van Der Beek.

5.3 seconds? You've mellowed in your old age.

How can you have an article about Hastings battle without mentioning the "Battle of Alcee Hastings"?

I have corrected this deficiency.

Re: Cruisin' - it's been "fixed"

This is really no fun.

The thing is, what if there were an organized attempt to continue changing one particular entry? I mean, they would eep changing it back, but how fast?

Like this one, for instance: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Anka

It's hammer time. Plus Indy's back.

Ruhollah Khomeini
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruhollah_Khomeini

Life in exile

He was born in the town of Khomein as Ruhollah Mousavi (روح‌الله موسوی in Persian) in 1902. As a descendent of the prophet Muhammad, he was entitled to use the style Sayyid before his name. Khomeini was named an ayatollah in the 1950s. In 1964 he was exiled from Iran for his constant criticisms of the government of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. He was sent initially to Turkey, where he learned the time honored tradition of paedophilia before later being allowed to move to Iraq, where he stayed until being forced to leave in 1978, after which he went to Neauphle-le-Château in France. According to Alexandre de Marenches (then head of the French secret services), France suggested to the Shah that they could "arrange for Khomeini to have a lethal accident"; the Shah declined the assassination offer, arguing that this would make him a martyr. Khomeini became one of the most influential opponents to the rule of the Shah, being seen as the spiritual leader of those fighting his rule. During his exile, Khomeini wrote a book titled Me and the Hooter's Chicks, which laid out his beliefs which as; all laws in an Islamic society should be based on the laws of Islam, all laws and activities should be monitored by closed circuit TV(guardians), there should be no king-sized cigarettes (that Islamic countries be a republic of smokers and not a monarchy of squares), and in place of a king there should be an Islamic/Supreme leader elected by the Three Sacred Monkeys of Tsangomaar. The book provides an insight on the eventual political background of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

See-Dub--

Seems they already found and deleted your punk.

My dreams of immortality have been squashed like a grape on Rosie O's office chair.

Damned Cruel Wiccans, and their evil Wiccapedia!

"quite frankly, I still don't know really what the hell it's supposed to be"

I guess it is explained in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia

Wow, Wikipedia is really a great site! Thanks for the great tip. I can't believe it was out there for five years, and I have not heard of it! What a wealth of information! Thank you thank you thank you! Didn't quite get why you think this site is wrong, though.

What is your purpose in "punking" Wikipedia? To prove that self-identified "conservatives" enjoy sabotaging other's work, and misleading people?

Because that is the image you are projecting.

This whole thread seems to be a celebration of fucking up other people's efforts to create something genuinely useful. Do you enjoy vandalizing playgrounds too?

Try getting people to take candy from children as your next sad project.

congratulations, mister ace!

this honorable position towards wikipedia just confirms my opinions about right-wing extremists like you.

the url above has info on what wikipedia is. punking it is a waste of time. being beavis (or butthead) is fun, but get a life.

speaking of, the current dusty girl is pretty damn nice.

That URL for wikipedia info is: http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-0e-sartwell4may04,0,4691427.story?coll=la-news-comment-opinions

You'll never succeed. You idiots. You think you can make a concerted effort to keep an article vandalised? That article can be protected from editing. You think you can spam a bunch of propaganda? Those articles will get deleted. According to IBM, it takes less than three minutes before vandalism is reverted. Think you can just do a lot of it? Your account will be blocked.

YOU ARE DOOMED TO FAIL. I LAUGH IN YOUR FACE FOR IT. HA HA!

Hmm... nice site but be more informative!
