Here. It's from the COnan O'Brian show.

This is a cool idea, and I would love to make one for myself, but really, who has the time?

It's no secret that I enjoy comic books, and I remain hopelessly optimistic about movies based on the books I love. The folks at Untamed Cinema have created a trailer for a movie that won't be made, but looks spectacular nonetheless. It's called Grayson, and it's available for download (zip file, quicktime required) from The Force.net.

I love RVs. There is no better way to travel like a rock star.  Here's a video(not really work friendly unless you have headphones) of the filming of a commercial for Winnebago. Doesn't it just make you want to travel?

MMW has a new album coming out, and you can listen to 3 tracks online (requires Flash) for free! Afterwards check out the list of artists with free tracks....Al Greene, the Roots...and check out some bands you've never heard of. You might find something you love.

Well, the twenty questions link was fun. I love these programs that are able to "learn." Here's another that's similar but a bit more focused. Guess the Dictator or Sit-Com Character!

20 Questions. Answered by a computer. I could make it go past twenty, but I couldn't stump it altogether.

I've been playing poker with friends for most of a year now. Poker's exciting and frustrating. Exciting when you have a good hand and know you'll win, frustrating when the other players won't shut up and play cards. Well, and when you go home with less then five bucks in your pocket, an hour before the game is actually called. I love poker so much that I stop whatever I'm doing and drool ominously at the television when I see poker being played. Dave Barry's seen the poker championships on tv too, but he has a slightly diffferent take on it. requires free registration

The Many Varied Fighting Techniques of Donald Rumsfeld

I didn't buy gas today, but it had nothing to do with a grandiose boycott. I just didn't need to today. Not that I love paying these prices for gas (I drive up to 50 miles a day for work), but while a one day boycott seems on the surface to be a good idea, it actually won't help a thing. You will still need to fill your tank the following day, won't you? In fact, if anybody at all is hurt is will be the small businesspeople who own the gas stations, not the oil companies themselves. Your local gas station makes pennies (not even dimes) on every gallon you pump, and they must also try to stay competitive with the store across the street. You can read more on the urban legends reference page, snopes. Additionally, the price of oil, according to the Washington Post article of May 3, 2004 explains that the oil prices are not generated by a few money hungry companies. The price hikes are made by those who supply the crude oil (mostly Middle Eastern and South American countries and companies). And adding in State and Federal taxes, plus costs from refinery to pump, takes the amount even higher. The API (American Petroleum Institute, granted an oil industry mouthpiece), cites the current actual profits in the Post article, and shows that the oil industry made less profit than the average American industry.
The gas boycott sounds like a good plan but it just doesn't have the capability to effect actual change. I, too, am sick of paying 25$ for a tank every 4 or 5 days. But instead of putting off your gas buying for a day, maybe we should be investigating alternatives to using the oil in the first place. Fuel cells, batteries, and good old fashioned carpooling.

I know, I know. It's not nice to laugh at the misfortunes of others. But when those misfortunes involve falling down or getting splashed on the curb by a car in the rain, I can't help but chuckle. Or guffaw. Here, I'll show you what I mean.

Why you should never put your picture on the internet

Yours is a very bad hotel. Acomplaint letter, found via fuckallyall.com

It's not as hard as you make it out to be, Mr. Miyagi.

You think you've been in some bad ones? Check out these pics of Really Bad Accidents (no people, just vehicles).

As an aspring comedian I have to come up with amusing metaphors and similies. These students from the Schoolzone website have me beat,though, and they're not even trying to be funny. Must be nice!

Rocketman takes flight!

Yeaaaahhhhh, I feel great!

I don't like to link to commercial sites that you'll probably find out about elsewhere anyway, but the Jerry Seinfeld/Superman 5 minute commercial from American Express is golden. It's only available via the web, too, which is an interesting approach: rather than make the consumer watch the commercial, they put it somewhere where the consumer has to do the legwork himself to see it. If it wasn't so quality it wouldn't work, but it is. Click on the film cannister marked "Uniform" to see it.

Tune in Tokyo! not safe for work!

One of the true joys of web surfing is finding those gems that make web surfing one of the true joys. Whoa, that sentence was dizzying. Speaking of dizziness, check out the whirliwhig this cat finds itself in (requires windows media player or other player capable of playing .wmv files).

Your daily newspaper is about to get electronicized. That's what I'm talking about! Now, bring on the flying cars!

I haven't forgotten you. Here's some of the links that have been cluttering up my favorites folder, waiting for me to post them:

Outkast may have the most played song on the radio right now, but now Saddam Hussein is making his bid for pop music icon. (requires flash)

I don't know who these people are or how they got into my favorites folder, but The Heavy Bag has a great design scheme and a good use of flash. I really enjoyed the art gallery.

Seems like everyone wants to mark their bodies with something meaninful. Here's a gallery of tattoos for geeks.

The clearing has only just begun! Check back often (but not too often) for more of the glorious trash that the internet has to offer.
