UFOs & hacking NASA

gary mckinnon wow. rad little article on wired found via boingboing on the ‘UFO hacker’ gary mckinnon. be sure to read UFO hacker tells what he found on gary mckinnon’s search for proof of the existence of UFOs. here’s a great excerpt:

I also got access to Excel spreadsheets. One was titled “Non-Terrestrial Officers.” It contained names and ranks of U.S. Air Force personnel who are not registered anywhere else. It also contained information about ship-to-ship transfers, but I’ve never seen the names of these ships noted anywhere else.

it gets better. keep in mind gary mckinnon is facing extradition to the USA for hacking into NASA & is looking at 70 years in prison and a possible $2 million fine. yikes. also, googling gary mckinnon brings up all sorts of pages. some good interviews are scapegoat or public enemy?, where gary talks about the USA’s lack of cyber-security, as is hackers fear UFO cover-up (with a link to an audio interview too) and game over. if i were smoking pot right now, i might be freaking out. luckily, i am just drinking nyquil. so all is safe.

subdermal body mods

bodymod8_t.gif bodymod1_t.gif bodymod4_t.gif ouchies! from wired, witness the next level of fashion and/or shocking your parents and/or needing to differentitate yourself from your social/fashion clique: extreme body modification via subdermal implants. interesting. oh-my-god, tattoos are sooo mainstream. there had to be a next level to counter-culture. but i also know folks who say such mods make them feel more spiritual and grounded in their body. sure, yes. that would explain the brass knuckles. or maybe they just want to look like this. whatever makes you happy. seems no different than plastic surgery to me. only a bit more lumpy. here’s a link to wired’s photo gallery of the lumpy subdermal alterations. owie! ouch-ouch!
