The Best Thing About the Internet?

Nothing - absolutely nothing! - ever goes away. You know what this is. Just be sure to watch through to the end. Reminisce. Enjoy.


Whatever happened to "fun" Josh?

Joining the Grow Squad

I suggest we start to get into this. Take note of the twenty-something making $40,000 every 6-8 weeks. Most likely, there'll be a ballot initiative in CA this year, as well, seeking to legalize recreational use of marijuana. Sales might just go up even further.

I'm SO happy with my choice in professions.

Wow, Toyota

Way to go on dominating the car industry and then screwing it all up for yourself. This will probably hurt the bottom line.

They should just start manufacturing only Priuses(?), Prii(?).

Epic Hockey Fight

9-year olds, dude.



Enjoy Your Weekend!

Watch the whole thing for a shocking ending!

Cougars

I don't know what this has to do with flying, but it's pretty funny.

Don't tease me, NASA

NASA Designs Personal Plane. I want one...now.

NY Times paywall

It's going to be a sad day when the NY Times starts charging for online content. Here's a good commentary.

Taxing Big Banking

Op-ed in the NY Times about trying to bring big banking under control, apparently written by the OMB director under Reagan (which I thought was interesting).

Removing Your Own Appendix

It's possible. It's been done. The link includes pictures of the guy, mid-surgery.

Colbert on McGwire

Apocalypse Now

The only thing that could make this scene from Apocalypse Now better is being dubbed in Spanish. Everything is better dubbed in Spanish.


I'm Addicted to The Daily Show

Ringo Starr, Ben Harper, "A Little Help from My Friends." Awesome.

Bacon Chicken Narwhal


This Is Why You're Fat always has some good stuff so I don't post most of the hilarity, but this is just too awesome:

The only good thing about the NFL playoffs...

is this music video from LaDanian Tomlinson. I have no idea what this is. However, it does contain:
1) LT imploring you to "hit that hole" and "say hi to the wife."
2) The whitest suit this side of Tom Wolfe.
3) A hippie wearing a dinosaur t-shirt.
4) Seizure-inducing flashing colors.




I don't like that call. Naw! Not a very good call.

Gotta Check This Out

Dudes, this is pretty hilarious, whether made up or not (and from what I know of people on facebook, I think that most of it isn't).

Another one for P-fizzle

Really it's for me, but I feel better about myself when I act like it's for Paddy.

Zoolander Phone

Not quite as small as Zoolander's, but getting pretty freakin close.

"Neil Young" covers The Fresh Prince of Bel Air

This is actually pretty damn good.

The Knave abideth.

Lebowski by way of Shakespeare.

The Android Army

Sounds like somebody I know:

Therefore, Android appeals to precisely the sort of frustrated, anti-establishment people who have no trouble writing abusive notes. It brings them out of the woodwork, gives them a new counterculture champion.

(The irony is, of course, that once upon a time, Apple was perceived as the counterculture underdog. But 200 million iPods later, some people obviously see the former “think different” company as the “you’re all a bunch of consumer sheep” company.)


Read the whole post. It's a cursory, but still interesting analysis of what is currently going on among fans of the now three big software (and kinda hardware) companies.

The PhD Problem

I haven't read this article yet, but thought it would be of interest.

"Avatar" Review

An entertaining and pretty accurate review of Cameron's "Avatar." Regardless of the rather pedestrian storyline, it is well worth seeing in the 3D. Seriously, go see it.
