Frankly, I'm disappointed that this is getting press:
Hollywood actor Tom Cruise believes in aliens - claiming it would be arrogant to think we, as humans, were alone in this universe. The movie star is currently promoting his new film War Of The Worlds, which sees him on the run from extra-terrestrials who cause havoc on earth. In a interview with German newspaper Bild, Cruise says, "Yes, of course (I believe in aliens). Are you really so arrogant as to believe we are alone in this universe? Millions of stars, and we're supposed to be the only living creatures? No, there are many things out there, we just don't know." Cruise is a long-time follower of the controversial Church of Scientology and is believed to be converting his fiancee Katie Holmes to the religion.
Of
course
he believes in aliens. Not in the "infinity is pretty huge, man is pretty small" way outlined above (which I'm fairly in line with), but SPACE CLAMS. XENU. BODY THETANS. The above piece is the sanest he's sounded in weeks -- maybe his PR machine is kicking into corrective overdrive, because it's not an effective way to make him look nuts, especially with all the available material.
The one thing I like about Scientology is that it makes Christianity seem so likely.
Randomly, more proof that an eye-mask is a terrible disguise: There's this Foo Fighters video that starts with a close-up of what's his name's mouth and a microphone. I still knew who it was immediately. OK, I can't think of his name, but STILL. I don't even know that guy!
I got splashed by cars twice on my way to work this morning. Stupid rain! Stupid cars!
OTOH, long weekend starts tomorrow!
do you mean cutiehead Dave Grohl?
Hey Canadian - you ever apologize to me? you still wanting a fight?

Ewwww! Ewwww! I need a shower!
From Wired - whitefonted for those who don't want to read something poo-related:
Jeepers, Creepers, Potty Peeper
Most Peeping Toms wouldn't crawl inside a sewage tank from a toilet in a public women's outhouse just to catch a glimpse of a female's derrière. However, a teenage girl noticed a face staring up at her from inside a New Hampshire log cabin outhouse toilet. "You can draw your own conclusions as to the conditions we encountered," said local police Capt. John Hebert after the girl's parents called them. Because the tank was locked, police said Moody, 45, must have entered through the toilet. "It's a very filthy environment, and before we put anybody in contact with him, we had to decontaminate him," Hebert said. "We treated him as if he were hazardous material."
Oh my god, that's so gross.
So not going to uncover that whitefont.
