My new theme song, yo

I was not going to post until I had pictures to show off of my new house, but something so extraordinary has appeared I felt I must share. If you know me at all, you will fully understand this link. You will understand why I'm going to buy it as soon as it is available. You'll understand why it will be my new cell ring tone. If you can suffer through youtube for a video, see my new love here: White and Nerdy

There's a song it parodies that none of you will probably know, "Riding Dirty," which I strongly dislike. But this? This ROCKS. Fear me.

Also? It has Seth Green. My nerd meter? BROKEN.

Saddam wants to "crush our heads." Wasn't that in a crazy show? Is he going to hold up his thumb and forefinger and squish us?

ON Feb. 7, 2005, I became a member of the Bush/Halliburton/Zionist/CIA/New World Order/Illuminati conspiracy for world domination. That day, Popular Mechanics, the magazine I edit, hit newsstands with a story debunking 9/11 conspiracy theories. Within hours, the online community of 9/11 conspiracy buffs - which calls itself the "9/11 Truth Movement" - was aflame with wild fantasies about me, my staff and the article we had published. Conspiracy Web sites labeled Popular Mechanics a "CIA front organization" and compared us to Nazis and war criminals. Here Comes the Science!
