Coming soon is the promised Injury Porn photo series starring Scott "Scout" Moore and his Draconian wrist apparatus. There's also gonna be some highlights from this past weekend's chicken-fried steak roundtable.

But for today, I BEG you to check this site out: http://www.geocities.com/maryromantic1. Be sure to read her 'required reading' section. It pretty much made me want to hide from all women for the rest of my life. What a fucking freak! Is she for real? Is the prospective suitor really supposed to jump through all those hoops just to get a date with some delusional middle-aged hag? (Actually, to her credit, there are photos of her two daughters that are reasonably 'hot'.) This is definitely going to give me worse nightmares than the two hours worth of spitting cobras I saw on the Animal Planet last night.

I suppose the moral implicit in that disturbing tableau is the following: if you are dating someone who exhibits even mild freak tendencies such as this woman does-- get the fuck out, post haste!!! This is the kind of lady that will feed you your own hands after she cuts them off in some bondage scenario gone horribly, horribly wrong.

In a happier development, I came across the following: filepile.org. Well, not so much "came across" it as found it on Metafilter, along with the above ghastliness. But this is a good example of the ephemeral-ness of the web that I dig so much. It's sort of an online version of those "take a penny, leave a penny" things you see in convenience stores, only you take mp3 files and pictures and links, and leave one of your own. When the dust settled, I ended up with a so-so Superchunk tune, a great Thee Headcoats tune, and a most inexplicable Hmong version of "My Heart Will Go On".
