Total eclipse of the heart Saturday
- Hurra Torpedo, Total Eclipse of the Heart: one year later, still the best thing on the internet.
- An illustrated guide to GOP Scandals.
- High-larious This American Life parody.
- This claims to be a hangover cure, but it’s way too complicated for that (try pedealite). I’d say it’s really no more or less then pure decadence.
- Skeevy video of underwater creatures: replete with Japanese voice-over.
- Recent ads I enjoyed: Comedy Central, Rolling Stone Magazine, Recycling. And in Pakistan, they’re running ads asking people to keep an eye out for stray radioactive materials.
- “He went off to interview some of the boys from Hezbollah — and they offered him either a mobile phone strap or a baseball cap with the Hezbollah logo on it.”
- Old photos of the pyramids and Sphinx.
- Terre Haute is “located within a 500-mile radius of seventy-percent of the population of the United States.” Miriam Joyce spectacularly calls bullshit.
- What can be done with the VW Beetle.
- History of the real and nominal minimum wage.
- OK, here’s a public service announcement. You know how when you’ve had your computer awhile it gets clogged up with all these programs, and sometimes you try uninstalling something and it doesn’t quite work, and now you have a program that has remnants on your system and the official uninstall won’t work anymore, but it causes glitches here and there? I had a serious problem on my work computer that made it a huge pain in the ass to copy files, and I finally tracked down the solution: behold the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility. (Caution: use carefully and at your own risk.)
- Shoot a real Iraqi. For real. Really. (Well, ok, it didn’t work for me. But still interesting.)
- Playing drum & bass on a drum set: Edwordless, Kevin Sawka, xhilikus, and Dave Marsalek.
