The Ultimate Facebook Application
So, I’ve been getting hundreds of invites to the latest and greatest applications on Facebook. And they all seem to have the same basic premise: invite your friends to get extra credits, so you can pull, roll, scratch, spin or tug on someting. Win a bunch of tokens, buy prizes and earn more credits. At this rate, I could spend hours on Facebook, and not accomplish anything. If only there was a way to stop the madness.
Well, I do have an idea (I can only hope that there is a Facebook developer reading this who has the time and patience). The ultimate Facebook application. I call it the One Million Token application.
Basically, by installing the application, you receive one million tokens….a day…every day…doesn’t matter if you even forget to login for a week, you still get those tokens. And what do you do with those tokens? You buy prizes. But here’s the clincher: every prize is only worth one stinking token. And after buying an entire group of prizes, you earn…you guessed it…more tokens.
I figure this way, if someone is spending all friggin’ day buying prizes, they won’t bother me with other pointless crap.

Bloggers Unite: Express Yourself
I was pleased to see the response to the Bloggers Unite Initiative has been so positive, that bloggers like Kevin from PointlessBanter.net have helped make the media aware of it. And with more exposure, means more people educating themselves on the plight of human rights. I, too, found myself in a bit of a pickle, as I tried to figure out how I could contribute to the cause. How does someone who spends his time making politicians and pop stars look like idiots, spread the word? What could I possibly write about that would be relevant to me?
Well, one plight does come to mind, and is of great concern to bloggers everywhere. Freedom of Expression.
I feel very fortunate, that I am able to take time out my day, and rant about the things around me, no matter how irrelevant or controversial. There are others in this world, who if they tried, would be endangering their own lives. I cannot even fathom what that must be like.
Many of us take freedom of expression for granted. When I turn on CNN, I don’t consider the fact that any of those individuals would see harm for reporting the news, or for expressing their opinions.
When I open the newspaper, I don’t suspect that by publishing a story or an editorial, that someone may get arrested for it, or face death threats.
So, why would I think twice about what I write in my blog?
Fouad Al-Farhan, however, did not share the same attitude when he posted comments on his blog that were critical towards the Muslim faith. And his fears became reality on December 10th of 2007 when he was arrested for an unspecified “violation of non-security regulations.” During the time he we detained in Jeddah, he had no contact with the outside world, with the exception of a single visit he was permitted with his father, and was completely denied the services of a lawyer. His release on April 26th, brought great joy not only to his family, but the Saudi bloggers who campaigned for his freedom. His release was not without its own controversy, as it was revealed that no charges were laid against him. A man was arrested and detained, and it took over four months of “questioning” for authorities to realize that his imprisonment was unjust. What is wrong with this picture? A man was punished for expressing his opinion, and was kept away from his family for 138 days. This type of injustice should not be tolerated, and every person in this world should have the same basic right to express themselves, without fear of punishment or imprisonment.

Archie Comics All Grown Up
After all these years, the kids from Riverdale High are still up to their same antics. And while there clothes have been updated, and they are sending text messages to each other now, they still seem like the same wholesome kids they were forty years ago. Here’s my modern (and possibly more mature) take on Archie and the kids.

Who Wants To Be A Yugoslavian Millionaire?
First off, I would like to apologize to the 2 or 3 people who have popped by the site a dozen times over the last couple weeks to see if their was any new content. Unfortunately, I was abducted by aliens and forced to breed with Lindsay Lohan in a plot to overrun the world with little hairy drunkards.
Now that I’m back, I would like to reward my loyal minions with a rare and exciting opportunity. As part of my lawsuit settlement with said aliens (who couldn’t differentiate Ms. Lohan from a vacuum cleaner), I came into a small fortune. And i am willing to share this small windfall with one lucky reader. I will be awarding to one lucky reader:
Not 1 million….
Not 5 Million….
Not 10 million….
But 100 Million Yugoslavian dinaras.
The rules are simple.
Simply leave a comment to this post, and tell me in 150 words or less, why you deserve to be a Yugoslavian millionaire. Entries are judged for creativity, originality and humour. I will select one lucky winner on May 31st, and they will receive 100 Million Yugoslavian Dinara.
Good luck.
