There should be more websites like this one

Why aren't there more sites like this one? Am I the only one to whom this sort of thing appeals?

I can't embed the videos due to code errors but check out the one on 'bulling' your shoes, how to shuck an oyster, and what part of the clove to remove before eating. Simply brilliant.

Fox and Liberal Colleges and Universities?

What is up with Fox's fascination with the Ivy League liberals? First, we had the rather thinly veiled 'Princeton-Plainsboro' teaching hospital for House, M.D. and the new show, Fringe, goes so far as to set up shop in the basement at Harvard. Egads. At least that fluff called Bones was satisfied enough to be set in the fairy tale world of the fictitious Jeffersonian Institute. (Sounds rather Democratic, eh?)

The point is -- all of these are rather non-Fox like schools of higher learning, eh? Really; where's the Fox show that's set at Oral Roberts? Wouldn't that be more in keeping with the news division? Meh.

12!

As a kid this was the best thing in the world (and I still sing it in my head at least once a week.)

With time, however, comes perspective. I never knew twelve could be so, well - phallic. (Check following the 30 second mark.)

Really amazing science

From today's NY Times, an article discussing a recent medical study where researchers were able to observe human brain cells summoning a memory. 

Simply amazing.

That cashier's job over at Denny's must have opened up

I'm sure many have heard but Don LaFontaine passed recently and took with him one of the best English speaking voices on the planet. Who's Don LaFontaine?



And, perhaps, the best imitation of Don is by the mimic Pablo Francisco (who, I think, gives Frank Caliendo a run for his money).




And, finally, the three amigos together.

What is it about Rick Astley?

To the tune (bad pun) of my man Barack's speeches.
