RatherGood
Adina sent me a link to rathergood.com which is chock full of entertaining stuff like the singing band of cats and monkey invaders. Amazing site - they should change their name to Rather Awesome

Smiley Face?!
OK, I may need to take back all the dumb things I said about that pipe-bomb kid after reading that he was going to do them in the shape of a smiley face. I'm sorry, but that is kind of cool. Pipe bombs aren't cool, but the smiley thing is.



Oh sweet puppy

Work from Home
I see those dumb signs everywhere. In NYC, you see those little fliers stuck up on top of the other ads on the subway. You see them on every damn lamp post and telephone pole. Hey, someone actually looked into this... scam (shocker, I know)
nice article

Oh, here is another great link that I stole from ishbadiddle


Hey Pony
Here is a great way to fix what's ailing ya



Cruel.com
This was my first basic XML project, so let me know if it works.
If you look on the left side of the start page, you'll see a listing for Cruel.com. I am using their XML stuff to syndicate their stuff onto happyrobot. Is that cool or what?
How does it look on your machine? Does it load slow or anything?



G00gle Bomb
I think I want to do a google bomb for happyrobot, but can't really figure out what keywords I want to try and use. I think I'd prefer something stupid. Any ideas?
How about:
Brown puppy
Hairy chest
Flapping Panties
Boobies
Hug Adina
Kick Matt's Balls


Actually, if you want to do that last one, here would be the code if you want to put it on your site:
Kick Matt's Balls


Puppy Part 2
This is our friend Linda's new Australian Cattle Dog puppy.
His name is 'Dude'. Why? I don't know. But he's pretty cute, eh?
If you click the 'Other Animals on the Farm' gallery button, you can see some of those cute ass kitties. I took the first four pics on that page.


This is a humour game
This game is my first work.
You're the first player.
I wish you would like it


Wilmington and W32/Klez.G (W32/Elkern.C)
This guy in Wilmington got that damn virus and it tried to spread itself to everyone in his address book. Oh boy. I think my machine is all nice and patched, but today is the 3rd day that I have been getting his damn virus laden emails. I don't mean to sound critical, but last night he sends out an email to everyone with instructions to remove the virus, and some of the instructions were a hoax.
follow these steps: on your 'start' menu, go to FIND: FILES OR FOLDERS and, in the 'find' box that appears (do the search in your C: drive), type in the virus name: jdbgmgr.exe and, if it appears (accompanied by a teddy bear icon), delete it immediately and then empty it out of your recycle bin ASAP. Do not open this file under any circumstances.

Checking out google quickly porved that this was a hoax. So, don't removeit. In fact, you may never want to delete anything based on someone sending you an email.
The great thing was, he ended the email with this line:
We also recommend that you forward the info in this message to everyone in your e-mail address book, just to be on the safe side.
Awesome
So, i think there are only a few instances of when you need to email *everyone* in your address book...
1. you are about to die
2. you are changing email addresses
3. you want to send out a picture of a monkey holding a puppy
