Friday Link Dump

Okay, time to toss out all the nifty links that I stumbled over in the past week but never really made it to “full post” status. Enjoy.
Vids

  1. Kinetic destruction visited upon an old Toyota, rubber band-style.
  2. Robin Williams guest-starred on “Who’s Line Is It, Anyway?”. Witness the hilarity.
  3. Do not, under any circumstances, take these guys on in Beiruit/Beer Pong.
  4. You’ve got to hand it to the Japanese people – a prank show involving sauna ejector seats on a ski hill would get sued into oblivion here in the U.S.

Pix

  1. This week’s Something Awful Photoshop Phriday – Computers in Movies – resulted in some hilarious entries, in particular “Memento” and “The Color #9900FF;”. I laughed so hard that I shed a few tears, but then again, I’m a huge geek, so YMMV.
  2. The Top 10 Places to Find Free Images for Your Blog from About.com (I wonder, have they looked at acquiring aboot.ca for all their readers from Canadia?)
  3. Literal translations of old sayings – a Fark photoshop “new classic”.

Tunes

  1. The Mac and Linux versions of Songbird have been released. Play music in your browser.
  2. Re: Your Brains. An ode to officeplace zombies with a distinctively They Might Be Giants flair to it. Heh. (World of Warcraft machinima video here, for those that are interested.)
  3. Birdy Nam Nam is a quartet of DJs from France that construct their music (almost) entirely using turntables. Their performance of their song “Absesses” was enough to win them a global DJing contest. Wickedly good stuff – their entire album is worth a listen if you can snag a copy.

1. I nearly peed my pants watching Robin Williams.
2. Birdy Nam Nam – AWESOME!! I will buy the $30 import in order to get the DVD as well!!!
Have to get back to posting now that life is starting to low down a little.
It was really great to see you and your family too! We should really keep up on that!
Later.
