The Road 2 Shambala: Exit 17-Uncle Tim's Mountain
Posted by Sam Dingman at 2010-03-12 13:27:42

As inevitably happens, the dance-bizzlies go crinky-dunque

Matt Singer joins us live in-studio to inaugurate the brand new Hootenanny Studios, where busybody refrigerators and subterranean forms of mass transit may try, but can never prevent us from bringing you The Good Times.  Matt performs several hot jams, the Lu warns us against the dangers of local riff-raff, plus the long-awaited debut of “Eugene’s Business,” a one-act play of dubious origins.  The Good Times are but one click away!

Hey Hippie
Posted by Gerrit at 2010-03-11 15:18:13

Get a job, hippie!  Quit looking at your psychedelia and playing with your imagination.  Oh wait... in this case they're actually mathematicians.  Well... get a real job!

Also, it's revealed that the Grateful Dead were sharp businessmen.  

The whole world has gone topsy-turvy.  This chart won't help clear anything up:

Strange Days
Posted by Shay at 2010-03-11 14:58:00

Something's rotten in the kingdom of 2log; there are strange, inexplicable events plaguing this once serene land. Gerrit was the first to notice them, and tried to alert us, but we did not listen. Now even more weirdness approacheth. A mysterious group identifying itself as "The Feminist Majority" has started commenting angrily on the most innocuous posts. What's worse is that if you unmask these charlatans you find that the group is actually made up of Tim Allen (convicted felon), Jay Leno (noted crybaby and former 2log contest winner, under what now must be considered suspicious circumstances), and a surprisingly sane and healthy-looking Danny Bonaduce:

But it does not stop there. The arrival of these usurpers to the throne has been accompanied by a strange spell of invisibility cast upon all following commentators, so that none of their images appear, with or without a 'stache:

Where is the bold sir knight who could set things straight? perhaps brave Sir Robin could be of help:

Worst at Twiter
Posted by Candice at 2010-03-10 13:13:36

What is Twitter coming to?

I used to think it was useful, but I keep getting "follow" requests like this:

Funeral Resources?  What kind of person follows this anyway?  I can't get this picture out of my head: a paranoid person,expecting their aging parents to die at any moment, but oh thank god for microblogging, because we got dad's casket for 15% off, and wouldn't have been able to without @FuneralExpert.
