Espanola ghost story.
This happened in the little town of Espanola, New Mexico, and even though it sounds like an Alfred Hitchcock tale, it's absolutely true. This guy was on the side of the road hitch hiking from Velarde to Espanola on a very dark and stormy night. The night was cold and wet and no cars went by. The storm was so strong, he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him. Suddenly, there in San Juan, he saw a car coming towards him and it stopped. The guy, without thinking about it, got in the car, and closed the door. Just before he could say "Thank you", he realized that there was nobody behind the wheel! The car starts going again, very slowly. The guy looks at the road and sees a curve coming his way. Scared, he starts to pray and begs for his life. Just before the car hits the curve, a hand appears through the window and turns the wheel. The guy, paralyzed in terror, watched how the hand appeared each time the car approached a curve. Gathering his strength, he gets out of the car and runs all the way to Ranchitos. Wet and in shock, he goes into Red's, asks for two shots of tequila and starts telling everybody about the horrible experience he just went through. A silence enveloped everyone when they realized that he was crying hysterically and wasn't drunk. About a half hour later, two other guys walk into Red's and one said to the other, "Mira, Jose!! That's the pendejo that got in the car while we were pushing it!"

Spoofs
I've started writing at a spoof website. A list of what I've done so far can be found at No webpage found at provided URL: http://www.thespoof.com/search.cfm?writer=4536.
The feedback that I've gotten so far is mostly positive, so I guess the stuff's pretty funny. Please rate anything you read, if you like it. The site tracks ratings and views and I'm trying to climb the ladder. And keep checking back as I'm continuing to build my library.
{AbE} Oh, there's also this one, my favorite, that doesn't show up in my profile for some reason.
Thanks.

Downtown Juneau vs Valley
This video just slayed me. Having lived previously in Juneau I am well aware of the Juneau/Valley rivarly. But anyone who lives in a split downtown vs not downtown community should get it:

What word was that?
misspelled = correct (along with misspelt)
Seems correct to me.
Edited by Doddy, : I now know it was 'rivarly' that was spelt incorrectly.

Re: Downtown Juneau vs Valley
Doddy just pointed out to me the word I did misspell, which oddly enough was the one I thought was wrong when I edited. If you have seen the movie "Waiting" this counts as a 'batman' and you can kick me in the ass three times for it.
Edited by Lithodid-Man, : For spelling AGAIN holy crap I suck

Re: Downtown Juneau vs Valley
Firefox 2.0 now has spellcheck so that misspelled words are underlined in red in all your on-line typing. And you can add words to your dictionary so that you can incorporate technical terms.

Which oddly doesn't recognize the word 'Firefox' by default!

Oh, Those Wild and Wacky Florida Judges!
Maybe there's something in the water down in Broward County?
Let's see - first the y2k elections were fucked up in Broward, then the Anna Nicole case brought us Larry the Justice Guy and now another Anna Nicole judge gets busted for smoking pot in a public park. As Imus would say "you can't make it up!"
