Scientology is still a dangerous cult!

There, I said it. Scientology is a cult.

Damn Brits...

"Fortune Cookie Oracle", a message to our sisters & brothers in China about Tibet.

I finally got a MySpace page I'm not ashamed of

A MySpace page. Everyone has one. I did too but it was lame. L-A-M-E lame. That is until I bribed my 13 yr old son to spiff it up. And he did.

Behold!

Barcode Tattoos (in context)

Barcode tattoos are perhaps better left unseen. At least in this case. You can still get 3 barcode tattoos for a dollar. Not to mention all the other stuff that gets thrown in the envelope too!

Still not conviced?

Grand Theft Auto IV. What else is there today?

Today is April 29, 2008 and that means only one thing: Grand Theft Auto IV.

New Free Ringtones & Cell Phone Wallpaper

So which do you want? Free cell phone wallpaper photos you can download or lots of custom Windows sounds you can download for free?

The best part is you don't have to choose, you can have both!

Mosquito Ringtone on CNN.com

Looks like CNN discovered the mosquito ringtone. Or at least a device called "The Mosquito".

You know, kids find the high pitch sound annoying and adults can't hear high frequencies. Me? I make Mosquito Ringtone available as a free MP3 download.

Download free custom Windows sounds

Tired of your current Windows startup sound? Want a better default beep than what Redmond gives you? Is there someone you want to play a prank or two on? What you need are free Windows sound files.

That's right. Free WAV files to replace the lame-o sh*t Microsoft ships. Listen to them all and download the ones you want. There's plenty for everyone so no pushing or shoving.

DIY Altoids Prayer Wheels

DIY Tibetan prayer wheel made from an Altoids tin. Hey, I'm a Buddhist and a nerd. Put the two together and you get...

Fitting that I finished this today: I heard HHDL as part of Seeds of Compassion. Secular but still the Dalai Lama.

Some day.

Woke up to a 7 am "I'm moving out" phone call.

My office building had a fire this afternoon.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama arrived in Seattle today for a 5 day event.

I got my lowest solitaire hand ever.

The Dalai Lama's message to Tibetans

His Holiness the Dalai Lama issued this: Statement of His Holiness the Dalai Lama to All Tibetans

HHDL's message couldn't be clearer. It is complete honest, open, transparent, and unambiguous. He does not want a Tibet separate from China. He is not behind the recent protests nor does he advocate violence. Yes, he wants to sit down with Beijing and talk.

PRC, ball's in your court. BTW, did you hear about the London protests surrounding the Olympic torch?

Ringtones, have we got free ringtones!

If you have a cell phone you're probably on the prowl for free ringtones. Where does one find free ringtones? On JetCityOrange, where else.

These aren't your regular free ringtones. Oh no. Don't take my word for it, listen for yourself.

tastes like chicken: all these need are some grits

Compassion in Tibet video

The recent protests in Tibet were met with a violent and repressive response from the Chinese government. Beijing refuses to open a dialog with the Dalai Lama. The 2008 Olympics has the world watching China, the same China that so desperately wants to be a full member of the international community. Well, there are no internal issues in a global marketplace.

We're all watching. The Olympics are a long way away.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama on Tibet

His Holiness the Dalai Lama issued a statement today about the recent protests in Tibet and the violent reaction by the Chinese government. Beijing continues to falsely accuse HHDL of conspiring against the PRC and being the mastermind behind the worst riots in 20 years.

No, China is lying. China wants "the Tibet problem" to go away, preferably before the 2008 Olympics. Native Tibetans want freedom and control over their own lives. The current protests arise from years of oppression by a facsist regime, one who claims to be "communist" but is anything but. The Chinese government is as imperialistic and feudal as any on Earth. They should be ashamed of themselves.

Please sign this online petition. Contact the Chinese embassy via email: chinaembassy_us@fmprc.gov.cn or give 'em a shoutout: 1.202.328.2500 Want to lodge a protest with China's UN mission? chinamission_un@fmprc.gov.cn 1.212.655.6100 Let them know how you feel!

Meanwhile here's an article with lots of links to help you keep up with events in Tibet.

Barack on Tibet

Seems like I'm not the only upset with China's crackdown on the recent protests in and around Tibet. Barack supports the Tibetan protesters and has issued a warning to Beijing.

This needs to stop now. China needs to keeps its warlord, anti-nationalist hands off of Tibet. Tibet needs to be free. We all support His Holiness the Dalai Lama. The Communists are wrong, not to mention running dogs and pitiful lackeys. That said, the PRC needs love and compassion too. No, really. They do.

Tibet & China

Bless the Tibetans. Their persistance and dedication to freeing themselves from Beijing is wonderful. In preparation for the farce that is the 2008 Olympics, Tibetans are protesting and marching.

Hello? PRC are you listening? We're all watching...
