Moving the site...

Well, Blogger has pissed me off one too many times. I have now moved my blogs to WordPress.

Update your favorites to www.theroosterstrikes.com and you will be redirected to the new and improved site.

For those of you that have not discovered WordPress yet, I highly suggest checking it out.

It is WAY more advanced and let's you do way more with it.

The good:
You can have sub-pages
The standard themes are way cleaner
Widgets are easy to use
More space
You can import all your Blogger posts to WordPress

The bad:
You have to pay $15/year to be able to update the CSS
You can't edit the HTML unless you are on FTP
The "tag" importation process is broken. You can import them, but they don't reassociate to your imported posts.

That's about it. See ya on the flipside.

Farewell WWN!


Since I was a little kid, I was always entertained when I walked up to the register at a grocery and got a good glimpse at the current issue of Weekly World News.

Ah, good times, reading this high quality bullshit. Or as Tommy Lee Jones said in Men in Black: "best damn investigative reporting on the planet."

It's a sad day really - when such entertainment goes out the door. I bet there will be a lot less alien and Elvis sightings from here on out...

I figured I'd share some of my favorite WWN headlines:

"U.S. Paying Space Aliens to Find and Destroy Bin Laden!"
"African Tribe Worships Barbra Streisand's Nose"
"Man Poses as CPR Dummy To Meet Women"
"Seeing Eye Squirrels For Blind Dogs"
"Tiny Terrorists Disguised As Garden Gnomes"
"Vegan Vampire Attacks Trees"
"Bush's Plan to Protect the White House: Paint It Black."

Well, now the checkstand at the grocery store is going to be a lot less entertaining. I guess it's time to order online and have Bigfoot deliver...
