funny commercial-Serious IT Question

Someone else (Thurgreed?) posted something from this site a few weeks back. this is a pretty funny commercial and the commercial is work appropriate. The popups maybe aren't.
The popups are "personal" ads from ladies who are "introducing" themselves with naked pictures. But what's unusual is that the ladies all live in my area. Is there "local recognition" cookie software out now, or do I just live in a slutty neighborhood (no Hank's mom jokes!)
I just have never noticed popups tailored to my locale, that's all.

It's based on your IP address which can be traced very easily by the server to your general location.

Much, much more interesting than March of the Penguins.

I'm glad I'm not alone in thinking March of the Penguins was a snooze. Very cute, and refreshing in this heat, but the flutes and violins got to be a bit much. In fact, the overall sentimentality was too much. Not to be a scrooge, but all anthropomorphizing -- the talk about love and joy -- seemed silly in the context of what is obviously an overwhelming biological mandate. |

Yes. I am all for anthropomorphizing - I love Spongebob and Finding Nemo etc., but there is a very refreshing lack of it in Grizzly Man. The bears, foxes etc., are definitely wild animals.
Which is not to say that I didn't like March of the Penguins - I liked it a lot - but it was a little sweet. |

Ahem. :hi:
In other news, Weezer's "Beverly Hills" is quite the catchy little tune. The mail room dude at opposing counsel's ofice looked a little shocked to see an old guy singing it yesterday in the elevator. |

It sounds awfully like a Good Charlotte song. Who had that sound first?

Dude, that's cold. I think parts of it sound like a bit of a Cake rip-off. Which is a much nicer comparison than Good fucking Charlotte.

Board killer.
The good news is that smut purveryor Garrison Keillor can continue to say the word "breast" on the air.

I just watched this again on HBO. I forgot that they show McGwire breaking Maris's record at the end. Sosa hugs him afterwards. McGwire then pays his respect to the Maris family. What a load of shit. That record should still be Roger's.

President Walken: More Cowbell.
TM

Damn, it would have been fun to have a cowbell platform.
Candidates for president in ’08 need not fret — they will not be running against Christopher Walken.
An online campaign for the quirky actor — including a sober-sounding statement supposedly from Walken himself — is a hoax, his rep tells The Scoop.
“It’s time to be smart about our politics. It's time to get America back on track,” Walken is quoted as saying.
“[That site] made me laugh,” says spokeswoman Mara Buxbaum. “Chris has no involvement with it whatsoever. Chris doesn’t even own a computer — he doesn’t know from computers. I suspect it might be some prankster who enjoyed seeing Chris as secretary of state in ‘Wedding Crashers’ and now thinks he should run for president.”
walken for prez

I saw this recently and thought it was pretty good. It's interesting that there's pretty strong supposition that Bonds, McGwire and Sosa all took steroids. McGwire cried about it, Bonds is pretty closely linked to Balco. Sosa has the weakest link, but everyone seems to think that he did, anyway.
I think that it's too bad that all this stuff will be swept under the rug because there will never be any proof. Same with Bonds v. Aaron. He can always play another year and hit 40 home runs, even without steroids. Then, he gets the benefit of both those records, even though both are steroid-aided.
Baseball's poor handling of steroids will have a lasting mark on the game.

Vibrator talk
Eva Longoria has been told to stop discussing vibrators. After the “Desperate Housewives” star confessed in an interview that she enjoys the devices, she says she’s received “truckloads” of them from admirers, but adds that her bosses at ABC have told her to avoid the topic in future interviews.
Why? Is it the Disney thing?
RT, she has truckloads. Doesn't she live in San Antonio?

Fuck McGwire, Bonds and Sosa. Sosa would sell his first born to be able to get on camera. In my book, it's still Roger's (even though I hate the Yankees).
It's just strange that the coverage of McGwire breaking the record is seen in a completely different light now than when 61* was first released. Then, it was a celebration and a pretty neat transition. That's no longer so. The ending of the movie has taken a completely different meaning.

Why isn't it still Babe Ruth's then? 8 less games makes a big difference.

Damnit, I talk about them all the time, and no one sends them to me in truckloads.
Hmph.
I'll be happy to take the torch if she feels she needs someone to advocate vibrators on her behalf.
