104º of hate


Who’s bright idea was it to populate a part of the world where the temperature routinely exceeds a hundred degrees? And no, “the guy who invented the frozen margarita, that’s who” is not an acceptable answer. Alcohol + Slurpee ≠ Win.

Enjoy some cool tunes.

H1N1…Thousand miles an hour


Swine Flu got the bass drum.
Swine Flu say I want some.

Seriously, though, according to reliable internet sources, you’re not going to die from exotic strains of influenza any time soon, though your school or place of business might get closed down by some paranoid administrator or executive. My recommendation? Stay home, crack open a cool beverage, put your feet up, and hop on Facebook to follow the stream of highly insightful comments on the White House’s brand new wall. Seriously…the flu thread is hilarious.

Oh, right, and listen to KRTU. That’s good for you, too. Like chicken soup for the ears.
