if you screw with the police, you deserve a taser zap naked dude

So if you Google "naked wizard taser brawl" you come up with this lovely piece of video from Coachella on 04/25/09. That guy must have been as high as a damned satellite because they had to zap him with the taser several times. And seriously? He completely deserved it. The police are clearly trying to be calm. I feel far more sympathy for the police officers having to struggle with an ornery, naked creep and getting screamed at by moronic psuedo-hippies from the crowds.

Really, what else could they have done? The guy was writhing around, shouting and resisting any attempt to put him in cuffs. I don't know - maybe they should issue the police tranquilizer darts. Then they can put people down the same way they do with escaped zoo animals.

I wouldn't have talked to the guy nearly so long.

Stalin vs Martians round one

Stalin vs. Martians opens in 1942, as a band of Martians land somewhere in Siberia and attack Mother Russia. It's up to the player to command the Soviet forces, and Stalin, who for some reason is hundreds of feet tall, heads up the defenses in person. Why? Who knows?

I think I need this game. Correction - I know I need this game.

I planted a tree one day

We have a flowering Cleveland Pear tree in the yard now. I look forward to watching it grow.

The past couple days have soaked us with rain. Probably not enough to break the drought, but enough to make all the green seem saturated, and the wildflowers to explode.
