Bathe in Badness

I was searching for Christmas mp3s and somehow came upon Saltwater Pizza. And I'm glad. The “How to create the worst playlist ever” post amused me greatly. So much so that I am posting the link and not playing GTA: San Andreas right now.

Oh, and I haven't figured out a good way to get my “Ghost photographer”
pics from my PS2 onto my Mac and into your corneas. But don't fret, I
just haven't worked that hard at it. It may still happen. Or I may blow
it off completely.

Like how I never followed up my Terry Francona bashing during the
playoffs, with credit for making some better pitching moves later in
that series and for bringing Boston what no manager has done since
1918. So much-belated kudos to the Red Sox Nation.

And in an effort to remain relevant and timely, a link to the David Wells signing.

Ghosts (for sale)

I found the ghost photographer in GTA: San Andreas. Although if you
stop him or her from drowning by say, hmmm…shooting them full of
lead, well, they bleed more than most ghosts. And die. And don't leave
you the camera. I plan on putting up some pics soon, since I haven't
seen a single one on the message boards.

But, in the meantime, the Indianapolis Star (well, you know, I live in Jersey and just need to know what's shakin' in Indy) ran this story on a certain ghost on sale at eBay.

I usually buy my ghosts in bulk from Costco, but I suppose $65,100 is a good deal for a ghost (with cane).

Actually I find this to be kind of a sweet story, albeit odd, but sweet
nonetheless. Kid's grandpa dies. Kid has to confront death. Kid gets
scared of Grandpa's ghost. Kid makes Mom sell Grandpa's ghost on eBay.

I genuinely believe the mother was trying to get some piece of mind for
her son, and figured, “who's it gonna hurt?” (not her quotes, but they
just felt right). It's a shame bidders ran it up so high. I hope
someone pays something, and sends the requested confirmation of receipt.

GTA: San Andreas Ghost Car Images

Here's the first pics I've seen, there's been enough talk about them, you knew they were there somewhere.

And I'd heard a few things about the photographer who walks into the water and drowns. According to this map, it looks like you can find her just west of Los Santos.

Another GTA:SA Rumor thread, and the Legendary Map from the Lil' Probe Inn.

There's quite a few interesting glitches out there. GTA-SanAndreas.com has a nice page devoted to these.
