The band “Ok Go” made an unofficial music video for their song “A Million Ways.” It spread across the Internet and allegedly became a cult sensation. I hadn’t heard about it until it was mentioned on NPR yesterday. It’s sort of funny I guess.
Ifilm’s got the video.
The singer guy is weird lookin’, with no hair and a moustache-less beard. That Amish look seems popular these days. He reminds me a lot of the bass-playin’ Harry Shearer in A Mighty Wind.
Some people would consider a t-shirt like this to be tasteless. I would have to disagree, for it is one of the few things I’ve found on the internet that made me ‘LOL IRL’ as the kids say.
I can’t buy it yet, because “Threadless.com is an on-going tee shirt design competition, anyone can submit their design and if it gets a high enough score and is chosen by the Threadless crew it will be printed and sold from the site.”
WTF! I can’t just buy it now? All I can do is appeal to you, my preciouses, to make yourself a threadless account and vote ’5′ on that shirt. Please. Do it for me. Do it for New York.
StepMania is a Dance Dance Revolution simulator for the PC. It can be played with a dancepad or keyboard.
This is a most incredible video of a perfect game, played on the keyboard.
Big programming changes are coming to Sirius. Effective September 29th, this new channel lineup takes effect.
Note to self: Stay away from Canyon Car Wash before work.
It took them 45 minutes to wash my car this morning. Forty five minutes! They either don’t have enough guys working, or they just don’t move fast enough.
Look how excited I am to be waiting for 45 minutes!
They did have free coffee and donuts though, so it wasn’t all bad.
Tammy’s out of town all week, so that puts me on Nutmeg duty.
What’s this? She’s almost out of hay!
A quick trip to the feed store fixes that…Good thing those aren’t leather seats!
A few strained muscles later, the hay is now safely in storage.
Happy horsey!
A little known fact of the California vehicle code is that if you get a ticket and choose to contest it, you don’t have to go to court.
You can instead request a ‘Trial by Written Declaration’ – which means that you can plead not guilty through the mail! You can then choose to attend your trial in a courtroom – or through the mail! You can mail in a copy of your testimony and any evidence that you may have to the court!
WHAT!
The officer who issued you the ticket is then obligated to mail in his or her own version of the events that happened – and what do you think are the chances of that happening? Unlike an actual court appearance, the officer won’t receive overtime pay for mailing in his or her testimony.
But wait! It gets better. If you wind up losing the case, you have a right to request a new trial! This ‘second chance’ option is only given to people who have elected to perform a Trial by Written Declaration.
Man that’s awesome! Ticket Assassin is a site that gives you all the info and DMV/court forms that you’ll need to mount a mail-based defense against a ticket! I’m considering making an illegal u-turn today just to stick it to the man!
Build your own Dalek with these blueprints!
I wish PBS would start showing old Dr. Who episodes again. It’s been years since I’ve seen them.
Two years ago today, I got married. Happy Anniversary Tammy!
Google Talk launched today. It’s basically just a Jabber client that connects to a Google Jabber server… Trillian and other third-party Jabber clients can connect to it too.
Do we really need yet ANOTHER IM network? Methinks not!
