In an alternate reality only an infinitely folded fourth dimension away, Luke Jackson narrowly avoided having his three point attempt blocked and put Oregon up for good with two minutes left. Pete Hunt decided not to get drunk by himself in his bedroom at his parents’ house, and instead went to the nearby (24 miles) Seven Feathers Hotel and Gaming Center to celebrate the big win. After boozing and schmoozing with some friends at the bar, he went onto the floor and won two hundred dollars playing black jack. Management invited Pete and his large entourage back to a secret “Players Club” behind the waterfall. There, he won another $500 (American) playing poker against an aging Reno lounge singer, a shady female boxer promoter and an old one-eyed Indian named Pecos Willy.

In a way, the only sad thing about Haiti is the way we keep trying to make it into Ohio. Because it never will be, and only looks ridiculous trying, giving the local killers fancy democratic names. If we just let Haiti be Haiti–a crazy, gory voodoo kingdom–people might learn to respect the place.

Yo’, I might be a little late on this one (I don’t want to be know as one of those “soooo September 10th” guys), but here’s a link to a to a two part story that sums up the history of Haiti. Part one is here. Part two is here.

And I was going to post something on infighting in the Sierra Club over immigration policy, but I couldn’t find the link I was looking for. Instead, here’s an interview with the Aqua Teen Hunger Force creators. It’s on the Suicide Girls website. I’m actually a Suicide Girls member. It’s a long story, but basically Sho introduced me to this girl who had posed for Suicide Girls, and after meeting someone who willingly posed naked online, you’re pretty much morally obligated to pay the four dollar registration fee and see what all the hype is about. And I’m not trying explain myself to anyone, because if I want to look at pretentious goth porn, that’s my business. It’s not like I live down the street from a strip club that offers stiff drinks and free pool.
