Holt website linked to WUSC DJ, the Swedes Danes Dutch weigh in























The image to the left is from a bird high up in a neighboring tree.

Turns out lookatmebeingserious.com is a registered domain name for the site wuscchallenge.com/lamb.html. Much like when you type in rawcopy.org you are redirected to rawcopy.blogspot.com, typing in lookatmebeingserious redirects to a page on the web site for the WUSC Challenge, the Saturday 8 - 10 p.m. slot hosted by music enthusiast DJ Billfred, who also keeps a blog. Interesting why he would choose to put this up.




Also, does anybody speak a Scandanavian language?

Update: The same bird mentioned above had this to say:

A professor of mine mentioned receiving the video on the WUSC listserv.

Update Update: I apologize to the nations of Sweden and Denmark for confusing Dutch with Danish and Swedish. It's been a long time since I've been in Europe.

It's Dutch, and it reads:
"Guy really doesn't see the fun in a joke"
The comments say "what a dick", "how much is the price of a can of air in america, anyway?", and the bottom one concludes with
"that dude is so owned now that he's on the internet".

This is why I went into journalism and not politics. There's no way I could get to 30 before something like this happened to me. Of course, I'd be drunk while it happened, but as they say in court, that's no excuse.

I am a student at A&M and the reason he was wearing an A&M shirt is because we gave away a bunch of shirts at COSGA (Conference on Student Government Associations)which is held on the Texas A&M campus every year. What's funny is that someone started sending this video around to Aggies who thought this was happening at A&M. Eventually the confusion was cleared up, but not after dozens of e-mails were circulating about how bad this made A&M look. ~Monalisa

Yeah, if I were going to put up that site I would have hidden my name from the registry. Too funny that it's a guy from WUSC.

I'm impressed that the Dutch have an equivalent for "owned." ... Ouch. My brain just melted from visualizing Dutch 1337 speak.

The person who emailed you wasn't some super secret agent. The nameof an information about the guy who registered the site can be seen by anyone who takes a quick look at whois.net

Never was it implied that I'm a super secret agent. In a separate email to JC I even commented that it's nothing special or difficult, anyone can do it - most people just don't know how. So thanks for being an ass.

As Arjan said, it's Dutch, as in the Netherlands, not Danish as in Denmark.
