Dead Mermaid

Check out what washed up on the beach in Mexico.



Thankfully I couldn't smell the decay from Oregon.

Gobble Gobble, you betcha!



“You need a little levity in this job..”

So, slaughtering turkeys is a bucketful of laughs for ya, huh?

“I’m sure that I’ll get criticized for even this!”

You betcha. ;-)

TV on the Radio - Family Tree

Like the vintage animation used in this video for TV on the Radio's song Family Tree.

Sarah Palin debate flowchart

Pretty funny chart that a friend sent me this morning. It apparently was created by someone over here: www.Adennak.com, but their service is currently down. Probably due to too much traffic because they posted this awesome flowchart!

I want an Aygo in the US!

OK, I don't really want to play soccer with one, but it would be a great city car for Portland!

I interviewed the Walrus

A 14 year old interviews John Lennon in Toronto. This is that interview set to a great animation.

John McCain called his wife what?

Oh my. Sounds like that's a healthy marriage.

"I'm Voting Republican"

Because sometimes the constitution is just one big headache.



Because everyone gets what they deserve.

Veto your beer? No way, really?



If I hadn't decided before, this would surely cinch it. I'm voting for the guy who won't take away my precious beer, Obama.

The Internet Party



This was really well thought out. I love how clueless Wikipedia is.

Hillary's campaign is history

While I admire her tenacity, I think that most left-leaning people (notice, I did not say Democrats) who I know think that she should really throw in the towel.

Cool special effects in this Sk8 vid

Check out the intro in this skateboarding video. High end special effects that would make most movie producers proud.

Gospel with no lord

Camille does atheist gospel. Never knew there was such a thing. I am also quite fond of her songs Ta douler and Au port from her CD Le fil.

Heh, this is awesome. Go here for the full junk.

No, wait, I am Spartacus

Continuing with the ancient world motif, here's a unique retelling of an important scene in the story Spartacus.

Cyanide and Happiness, a daily webcomic

Oedipus - now with cholesterol lowering properties

The story of Oedipus told in stop motion animation starring the contents of your refrigerator's crisper drawer.

How to deal with a brown-noser

We've all had those annoying coworkers who were complete and total brown-nosers. The ones who would do anything to impress the boss. Here's one way of dealing with those annoying little twats:

Spy Hunter tribute

Cool ad. Don't know anything about the car, but I played way too much Spy Hunter as a child to not love this.

Cool color browsing web 2.0 site

Worst company in America 2008


Consumerist is running their annual poll to find the Worst Company in America - I'm assuming that this means the U.S. Big surprise, Comcast is currently leading this dubious race. I know that's who I voted for. Those evil bastards.

Virtual Reality tech

Here's a cool bit of technology that this guy whipped up using the technology built into the Nintendo Wii. At around 2:30 he starts his demo with a comparison of a normal screen and then goes into the virtual reality part. PI wonder if in the future we'll all be wearing head detectors with our TVs...

999 - Homicide

I had an LP by these guys back in high school. This was definitely one of my favorite songs.



Emergency is also pretty darned good.

Polyphonic Spree - We Crawl

I like the concept of the video here. It feels very personal , and gives you a better view into the band members lives. Fun!

Mushroom Horse Mask Dance

I love mushrooms. Yet, this is just plain nutty. Apparently he's a Japanese performance artist. Not exactly sure what his message is from this performance...

A couple of videos from Ignite Portland

Here are a couple of videos that I recorded at Ignite Portland this past Tuesday.

First, here's how you can be part of the oldest profession in the world.



And next, here's why Germans love David Hasselhoff. You've always wanted to know, haven't you?

The SUV from hell

This looks like something that a third world dictator would have to help keep him in power. Oh wait, it's from the US Secret Service. Right.

File this under WTF

Hawaii chair? What does this have to do with Hawaii? I sure didn't see any when I was there this past August. It's definitely NOT ergonomic.

Post-it animations

This video from a Russian brass band shows off what you can do with a pad of Posti-it notes and a digital camera.

I can only do this with Bambi

The Headlights

Love this band. Their new CD comes out in February. If this first song is any indication, I'm willing to bet that the entire CD will shine.

I was a cub scout

Yes, I too was a cub scout. But that's not what this post is all about. I actually like this catchy little indie ditty quite a bit from the band "I Was A Cub Scout"

30000 Matchstick heads

OK, this doesn't seem like the best use of one's time, but apparently if you cut the heads off of a bazillion matches you can burn them all at one time. Seems to me that it would be easier to just cut open a couple of Roman Candles, right?



Oh, and this video is from the Chinese version of YouTube - Youku. It will soon be more popular than YouTube, I bet.
