Get the phoop mug.
Amy Winehouse, as coined in Brit tabloids. A truly talented singer, she has become a darling of the yellow journals, due to her anorexic appearance and heavy drinking/ drugging/ brawling. She overdosed and was seen bloody and with her husband all scratched up. Got her a ton of publicity. She won a BRIT award, a MOBO and is due return to the studio to start work on a new album set for release in 2008 which is exciting. If she doesn't die first from her eating disorder etc. The British newspaper The Sun has been running a HILARIOUS Amy Winehouse column called Wino Watch.

1. A killer of simulated humans called REPLICANTS - clone robots genetically engineered to be way stronger and at least as smart as their creators. In the Ridley Scott movie, a police officer who is authorized to kill these beings is called a Blade Runner.
2. Blade Runner: Syd Mead did the concept art for this awsome flick based on Philip K Cicks novel "Do Andriod Dream of Electric Sheep". Best film ever according to millions of Science Fiction geeks, including me -- until DEADMAN -- a Jarmusch film starring Johnny Depp --outplaced it as the best film of all time.

EXTROPIANS are a type of transhumanist futurists. Generally they hold an optimistic view of the future, and espouse that technological breakthroughs - mostly in genetics and electronics, will cause human beings to become "more than human" or "better then human". They are often Randian Objectivists, or are libertarian, though not all. They are aligned with Secular Humanists and Skeptics Society as well. They got a lot of media attention during the 90s, for example, co-founder Max More and Tranhumanist artist Natasha Vita More graced the 2000 January cover of Wired Magazine and were darlings of the vastly emergent cyber culture. The term Extropy was coined by T.O. Morrow and Max More. Many Extropians are into Cryonics which means you pay to have your head or body frozen when you die in the hopes that science finds a way to reanimate you.
I went to an Uber- cool Extropian party, And everyone was so hip, so smart, and so techno savvy... but then they started talking about how they were saving their heads in vats of liquid nitrogen and I decided to lay off the vodka.
However, I did learn that Walt Disney did NOT have himself frozen, that was an urban legend.

I loved that Ur-realism art show, especially the images of Tiajuana bars with hookers standing outside.
