It's party time, then a trip down the dark side.....just a wee trip mind you.

Click here to listen.

This week we start exploring the jolly good fun that was this weekend.

Greg partied like it was still 1999, taking a trip to San Francisco, to see a ball game, with a bunch from his favorite Irish Pub....so you know this was a sober event.

Simon spent the weekend coming face to face with various predators, but mainly a surprised coyote and a rather unfriendly mommy bob cat, as she had 2 kittens in tow.

Ashok joins us this week and he says he just partied at the weekend....without going into more detail. Hmmm.

We beging exploring the dark side, courtesy of a couple of stories that made us all say "What the hell just happened?"

The first stemmed from a court case where the judge said it was OK for police to secretly tag cars, even when on your own property, with GPS tracking devices. WTF?!?!?!?! So, what year is this, 1984?

Greg then somehow manages to change the topic to 3D porn?!?!?! Don't how we got there, but we certainly did, in full technicolor detail....you have been warned.

We then explore more of the dark side, with government and non governmental snooping. We discuss new cases to prevent passports and credit cards being scanned. Cool.

We then discuss news that came out recently that billions have been wasted on projects in Iraq. Now who'd have thought that?!?!?!

Staying on the big B subject, we close discussing how billions seem to be donated to specific disasters, but very little seems to be utilized. The big case cited is Haiti, and Simon having spoken to someone from there recently, who said that it's just as bad today as it was right after the earthquake.

And on that happy note, we end this week's exploration of moments and stories that made us go "What the hell just happened?"

We end this week's episode with 2 minutes from a song from Iron Maiden's new CD...(which is fan-freakin'-tastic btw)

BMSMA.
