D & D Sex for those geeks out there who CAN get a date.

Contains no pictures, sorry guys. Go ahead and roll your 20 sided die.

step two: familiarize yourself with the rules of dungeons and dragons. it’s very important that you complete this step after you get a mate, because - and let’s be honest with ourselves - guys who play d+d don’t get chicks.

HUGE PLANE!

Holy Moley!
Wow that is a BIG PLANE!

Click on the pictues link that lives in the text. The cabin mockup images are incredible. Good thing the gap between the middle class and the upper class is increasing, so all the movie stars can have their naptime on the plane, while Joe American gets paid 4.75 hour to wipe down the bar.

Awesome!

It is the first film image from the Fahrenheit 9/11 extra features stuff, ‘the day before the war’. I call it, ‘before the rain’
(which is the title of an excellent movie about Yugoslavia war/Bosnia - but also very close to Max Ernst’s ‘after the rain’ artworks about the tragic shape of the world and most prominently Europe after the wwII.

headless Mac SPECULATION

Headless Mac Media Center (Could be fake, but might not be)

If anyone saw the pics that came out before the new Imacs (a few days prior to that MacWorld), one would notice that those pics too were in an elevator. Perhaps the mysterious leaker is none other than Apple’s 70 year old Elevator Hop. Or maybe not.
