Few things would make me happier than seeing Peter Crouch on in a Man City Kit. BBC tells me there's a chance.

I wonder if this would be nearly as funny if they weren't wearing those suits.

Wonderbra has done a wildly appropriate spoof of a milk ad that used a gorilla in place of breasts. The original ad's tagline was "a glass and a half full of joy" May not be safe for work, if you work in a place scared of bras and happiness.

I'm so very scared. Imagine one of these chasing you... and then when you dart down an alley, the human part jumps out and stays behind you and the robot part cuts you off. Then they commence with the Tazerings, Bro.

This is a little 'sketch' for a project i'm working on at work - that we thought could be stop motion.

Paul, this picture needs a hefty legal disclosure or you might be in trouble...

How 'bout: Sometimes i feel like marriage is just a bunch of terms and regulations for a relationship?

Blogger Eric said,

A compromise, yes, but terms and regulations? It sounds like a restrictive contract. What do you mean by "terms and regulations?" Monogamy? Husbandly and/or wifely duties?

Blogger Paul said,

i'm not sure that i mean restrictive - more like unnecessary. Also, i'm not too happy with the religious side of it.

Ask 500 people is a website that will ask your question to 500 strangers from around the globe. Users can vote for any question in an effort to get the question answered before another. The resulst are shown in percentages and are also shown on Google Maps. Many of the questions are inane, but some are great. Someone posted, "Art has no bearing on the world." Users could agree or disagree on a 5 point scale. Here are the results. I asked "Do you feel the War on Terror has made America safer?" The results are not too suprising.

I know this is no way sceintific, but it still intrigues me.

...is Gibson's robot guitar. Apparently, this thing can automatically adjust itself to a variety of specialized tunings. Guitar techs around the world are probably dusting off their resumes. What I really want to know is: can it tune itself during play? It would be cool to strum a chord and hear the sound of the guitar change tunings. The robot guitar would be the second coolest guitar I've ever heard of. This one wins first place on merits of style.

NOTE: The pic above IS NOT from Gibson. It is actually GTRBOT666 from the one-man-band "Captured by Robots."

Keep it Up: Best Buy

My 1 month old iPod Classic broke two days ago. Really broke. Nothing I could do to fix it. It was going to have to go back to Apple for service.

Last night I decided before shipping it out to Apple that I'd try my luck at Best Buy. I bought it there on 10/10 but i lost the reciept, so I wasn't expecting much help from them. But they found my receipt, they took a look at it, and they told me to grab a new one off the shelf.

It was that easy. Keep it up, Best Buy!

Hang it Up: Holiday Catalogs

Honestly, who shops from catalogs anymore? I've got a stack of these things in my mailbox every day and they go straight into the recycling.

Hang it up holiday catalogs.

The way I see it, Sarah was reading this post yesterday while I was gone in the afternoon and decided do have some fun with my phone. She denies all responsibility however.

Blogger Eric said,

HA HA! Dan, you realize this requires retaliatory restitution, right?

Blogger Sarah said,

Retaliate to whom? I had nothing to do with it.

Blogger Eric said,

Why are such mighty and respected political figures from our history reduced to the rank of pawn when Dubs and Slick Willy are kings?

ugh.

Blogger Dan said,

pretty sure the republicans should have military personnel as their pawns.

not sure who the dems should have. the american working poor?

Blogger Ryan said,

LBJ...really?

Blogger Paul said,

The dems would have the [liberal] media.

or just the NY times op-ed columnists.

Blogger Eric said,

The dems should have the working poor (or some minorities) as the pawns. Or maybe hippies and college professors wearing tweed jackets. The republicans could have NRA militia men...

No worries however, cause this is my current favorite - and it's already out of my price range.

And i wish that the writers get what they want here... although in some ways, maybe this could be a golden opportunity for some less established distributors could come in and change things.... there's gotta be some decent project managers/producers that youtube can hire, right?
