E.J. promises “an action-packed show,” but you can only know for sure if you listen…
Willie seems to perhaps question the efficacy of the “Pickens Plan” for solving the nation’s energy problems. During the ensuing discussion of the potential of wind power, E.J. takes the opportunity to make a dirty joke. Willie keeps it going. Chris provides his silent, tacit consent to the filth.
Chris introduces the inherent contradictions about T. Boone faced by many fans of Oklahoma State athletics (and of affordable gas): loving his donations to the school while distrusting the control that comes with it; appreciating his call to action on the energy issue while distrusting his motives. But what else would one expect?
EJ thinks we’re going to keep our vision on this story as it un”wind”s. Stay tuned for further details. www.PickensPlan.com
“1.21 Gigawatts!”
In other news, crazy monkey grass is creeping in from Canada, destroying slinging metal things and edger attachments all over the north!
“They don’t call me ‘The Edge’ for nothin’”
Willie passes along a way for you to tell when one is going to die and whether you’ll die of a horrible disease or not. For more information, check your genome at home with PCR and cloning machines. All available via a USB connection. Willie also thinks it’s fun to pee on a stick to see if you have a “mutant genome in your genes” (or jeans).
EJ next brings up how South Park gives hope for all of the nerds out there that want to be superheroes in stopping terrorist attacks. We’re not sure what episode of South Park gives the “how-to” but there’s one out there. Trust us. Using Google Earth, Myspace and podcasts, you can stop your 4th grade classmates from blowing up the world too!
“They don’t even say ‘search for it on the Internet,’ they say ‘Google it’”
Where did Google come from? What does “google” mean? How does Google make so much freaking money?!?! Well, apparently it can all be summed up in one word: Ads. Or is there something more sinister going on? Dave joins in and give us 41 chapters worth of conspiracy to throw Google in the middle of international intrigue and cover-up.
Dave believes Google is very intrusive and this is view is that Google will be (if not already) a tool of Big Brother.

“You can get this podcast around the world!”
“Oh, I’m down the rabbit-hole baby.”
You’re now introduced to our very early reports on MobileMe, the Apple product that stole its logo from Windows Me.
“What if the cloud rains? What if they hack into the cloud?”
Dave proceeds to tempt us with, not cereal, but a “frozen thing.” Yet, he doesn’t share at all… Yet, we’re keeping our other eye on the Google/Illuminati connection.
By the way, Dave is wrong, it’s only been 2 months since the movie has been released, not 3. Not 3, Dave.
A discussion ensues about how/why the movie was filmed. IMAX has a 6-inch negative while using 6-feet per second of film. A bunch of stuff about “dumbing-down” and something about a “Blue Ray.” In case you didn’t notice, Chris zones out.
Thanks to Rush for listening to us 6 months ago, you music freak you. We’ve actually recieved another email from Rush asking when our next show will be up. Here it is, Rush.
