Wednesday Morning Monologue - September 14, 2011

Did you know that Wednesday has absolutely nothing to do with the name Wendy. That's true. The rest of this not.

The Algerian government decided to end state control of television in the country. They might change their mind after the first season of Bachelor Pad: Algiers.

In Baltimore, some of Archimedes' hidden writings are going on display. The recently recovered writings include the earliest known status update.

In Europe, a non-profit group is putting up 1million Euros to fund an open source version of the Windows operating system.  No word yet about how much money will be spent funding open source viruses.

Leila Lopes of Angola was crowned Miss Universe this month. Her first order of business: get the hell out of Angola.

In the literary world, a campaign is underway to save the hut that Roald Dahl wrote his most beloved works. Unless that hut had free wifi and a Starbucks, I'm not sure how he wrote anything there.

Have you heard of Comodohacker? No? Of course not, because he's a computer hacker. Anyway, this jerk Comodohacker bragged recently that he's broken into Windows servers, and can now issue fake Windows updates. Great. So now I've gotta waste even more time downloading updates? If I'd actually paid for my Microsoft products, I'd be pissed off right now.

In entertainment news, famed sensitive man Mel Gibson is set to direct and possibly act in an upcoming film about the Jewish historical icon Judah Maccabee. Hey, great job controlling the media, guys.

And finally, famed tele-jerk Jon Gosselin has some advice for his ex-wife, Kate, following her appearance in People magazine. He said... oh, let's just boil it down and translate it for her: don't marry douchebags. Got it?

Got it. Okay, that's all for now. You've been super great, everybody. I'll see you tomorrow, right?

Till then, have a great day!
