bigstripes sent us a couple of websites that game chairs: The

Simcraft for people for whom strapping a subwoofer to your chest just isn't enough.
Curious what the MST3k guys are doing?
bill notes that most of the guys are working on a website Timmy Bighands, although

QuasEye sent us a link to a review of The Matrix: The Musical. I need footage of this, but it sounds frightening beyond measure.
Frank Martini
pointed us to a
VinylVideo who are hawking a kit that lets your old record player play video.
Sun Tzu
pointed us to a list of milestones in a programmers life, while
jamesoutlaw sent in a site that caricatures common discussion group personalities in Usenet ... and surprisingly enough Many of the stereotypes apply just as well to Slashdot.
Schmam notes that Stevie Case, one of the designers for Quake II, now working with Ion Storm, famous for being Romero's GF, and for beating him at Quake, as well as being hot ... well she's in playboy, but you're only allowed to read the article or else I'm
telling your mom.
Hey, its nice to note that Slashdot took 2 People's Voice Webby Awards one in the Print & Zines and
the other in Community. I'm not exactly sure what it proves tho (besides the fact that you guys like us enough to fill out a form)
but thanks to those who voted us. May peace and prosperity follow you (and may the Webbies not sell your e-mail address to people bent on selling you toner).
And now for the strang(er) part of the quickies,
HelLfiRe leads us towards The Stinkymeat Project
which is, well, a photo documentary of a plate of rotting meat. Read
only on a settled stomach.
Richard Stevens sent us an

mkoscica sent us plif which is really twisted, but funny.

A few months back, Playboy visited the U of A campus here in Tucson in search of some fresh meat. Everyone thought it was great, there were flyers in every window of every shop downtown advertising it...hooray-hooray, 10 lucky girls will end up in Playboy. Then, the shit hit the fan, and they became the laughing stocks of the whole campus..An article in the Wildcat (our school paper) managed to interview one of the representatives from Playboy. It turns out these girls were paid a measly $100-300 each to bare all in a national magazine. Poor sluts, I thought, to be taken for a ride like that.. You've gotta be pretty hard up for booze money of you'll get nekkid for that cheap. Dumb girls just don't do it for me.
Then again, this is Playboy, not Scientific American. Being smart wont exactly land you in the centerfold.

Silly me. I happen to be of the opinion that any woman willing to show her bush to a few million people for a measly $175 puts herself at the same level as a prostitute.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I call it like I see it. it. And, as I see it, any woman who takes money in exchange for getting a guy off == a whore. What do you call them? Entrepeneurs? Artistic Collaborators? Quick! Find a politically correct term for "slut"!
See, I doubt many people buy Playboy to read their thought provoking editorials and in-depth sports coverage. They buy it to look at one thing: tits & ass.
