To keep the true-crime fanatic in me satiated, I’ve started a site that links to disturbing (in my opinion of course) news stories. Submissions are welcome as well if you’re interested in the seedier bits of news as well. Disturbing Humans is the place, and it’s not for everyone so be warned. All stories linked to are “newspaper friendly”, but it can still be a bit much.

Cuil
Why does the new search engine Cuil (terrible name btw) look like it has thrown up on itself whenever it presents search results. What a mess, ugh.
YYZ!
You haven’t heard Rush’s YYZ until you’ve heard (and seen) it played by an 11-year old on the keyboard.
CBS Edits McCain
Like or hate Keith Olbermann, this brief report he made on CBS correcting a huge mistake by John McCain points out a major blunder by the network. Why cover up something blatantly false being said by a presidential candidate so the general public doesn’t see it? How is not knowing the basics of the Iraq “surge” not something we should expect our next leader to actually know? Ridiculous I say!
Logos de Olimpíadas
This collection of logos from the Olympic Games is pretty neat. It goes all the way back to 1896.

Some of the finest graffiti around:
Hamburgers!
Behold the 7 Hamburgers of the Apocalypse.

Self-described as “The Ultimate Online Archive of Unflattering Hillary Clinton Photos”, I have to say that this site does deliver for the most part. Hey, every picture of me is unflattering, so don’t get your panties in a bunch over this post.
Penguins Revenge
Is it Yeti time again already? Penguins Revenge!
Strange Maps
Strange Maps is one of those sites that might have been posted here before, I honestly can’t remember. It’s easier to just repost sometimes than to bother looking something up, right? Anyways, their latest post, Niam Niam: the Cannibal Map of the World provides the quality reading I’ve come to love.

Viral Batman
I always think that John Wayne Gacy’s mugshot can make almost anything creepier. Still, it has never worked so well as it did with this Batman viral marketing thing.

The first official trailer for the movie adaption of Watchmen is online. The geek in me just did a little sigh of happiness.

In anticipation of the latest movie, take a gander at Batman through the years.

Honoring the Golden Age of Ocean Travel
The Titanic wasn’t the only ocean liner lost at sea. Check out Lost Liners for more stories of giant ships that never made it back.
GLaGPS
If I had a GPS I would love to implement the Genetic Lifeform and Global Positioning System, if only to annoy my wife.

Kill some time making sandy things over at thisissand.com. Very cool.
