SEB Mailbag: “You are a dumbass” edition.

It wasn’t clear at first, but this email appears to be in regards to an entry I wrote back in 2004 about dumbasses paying money to sit in a mine full of radon gas on the belief that it will help alleviate any of a long list of ailments.

Second episode of SEB Podcast is in the planning stages.

***Dave and I are getting ready for our second SEB podcast with plans to possibly record it as early as tomorrow evening.

The Republicans still haven’t come up with a better plan than to be as obstructionist as possible.

SEB Musical Interlude: “Gulf” by Jack Conte.

My current repeated-listening-to obsession:

I’m a big fan of Jack’s solo work which is full of energy and is fun as hell to watch him perform. You can see his other videos . . . → Read More: SEB Musical Interlude: “Gulf” by Jack Conte.

“Teabagging for Jesus” with Edward Current.

He’s back and he’s joined the Tebagger Movement:

You have to admit, he has an impressive argument.

Teen nearly kills himself for a free soda.

Are you stupid enough that you would clamp wires to your nipples and give yourself a 120 volt zap just to win a bet for a free soda?
