The dead are pretty useless unless you’re a cannibal or necrophiliac. Well, the Spanish town of Santa Coloma de Gramenet has found another use for the ex-productive members of society: power source.
Coste-Live Energy, which runs the town’s cemetary, has just activated 462 solar panels mounted on top of masoleums. Their “justification” is that the tombs are the only expansive flat and sun-drenched property that effective solar collection requires.
The townspeople briefly fought the idea, but then decided that zombie power might save them some energy costs. Unfortunately, we all know where those savings are going into: the Anti-Zombie Military-Industrial Complex that the US narrowly avoided by oil dependency.

We at SG are usually nonplussed about religion and any wacky aspects that people infer in their daily lives. I mean, ultimately, religion is a can of worms that we just don’t want to get into.
But really Sweden? A religion dedicated to worshiping le petit mort? I mean, hasn’t that type of thought gotten your churches into enough trouble already? (Link is most probably NOT SAFE FOR WORK)

Sure, they may seem cute and cuddily, but these mean-spirited oversized Teddy Ruxbens mean business. All a child wanted was a hug from a Panda Bear at a zoo in China. The little boy was rewarded with a bite. Oddly enough the same bear bit a drunk tourinst two years ago, proving once again that the animals are out to feed on the flesh of the innocent.

For the past several weeks, Congress has been handing out money like candy on Halloween. (Technically, it’s been doing this since 1787, but let’s stick to today.) Banks, car manufacturers and the banks again have put on their best costumes and knocked on Congress’ door. Lawmakers have been only too happy to give what the executives want, mostly because they look so cute in their little outfits.
Since the Congressional lottery continues, I have come up with a few other things that are worth of billion-dollar bailouts. Should I ever be called to testify, I would be happy to make my case. Until then, this new device, this series of tubes will have to do. Read more
