In searching for some video links for that last post, I found this mash-up of The Wiggles and just can’t stop laughing. It probably helps that I had to sit through several Wiggles tunes with the rugrats.
Oh, and before you press the play button, I’ll give you the Not Safe For Work warning:

I didn’t expect much out of the mixed martial arts matches when I hit Throwdown 2 in East Peoria Saturday night, but there were some great fights. I had a good view of the cage, and with 15 fights and 2 more female fights, it was an exciting evening. I did take a few pictures, [...]

Regular television just kills writing productivity, so I flipped over to the XM stations as I continued to massage this outline for the graphic novel. I’m a chronic channel hopper, even on the radio, so every so often I’d flip around to find something worth listening to. At one point I stumbled across Duran Duran’s [...]

I dug up some info on the Honda FCX Clarity today. It’s their hydrogen fuel cell vehicle that emits nothing but sunshine and rainbows when you drive it, and apparently there are several test cars on the road in California. The biggest problem is the infrastructure, of course, and I kept wondering where one would [...]

Cullen Bunn can write some kick-ass comics, but by day he’s a VP of something-or-other for a large company. I’m sure he has to wear a tie to work, and he gets to sit on boring conference calls and move his employees’ cheese. I’ve often wondered how a typical workday goes for him, and I [...]

Once again a geek has far too much time on his hands, but this mash-up of Star Wars and dialogue from Guy Ritchie’s Snatch gave me a good laugh this morning.

When John, Tim and I started discussing last weekend’s Three-Way Man Date™ on Twitter, a lot of people wondered how that worked.
It’s pretty simple, really. We started the day with some cigars and hooked Tim up with a new humidor, then stopped for beer and steaks. We built the evening around the UFC fights, which [...]

I followed a related link and discovered this really cool version of Kill Bill done in one minute, in one take:

I love it.
Meanwhile, I have determined Good Friday is not good enough. The Midget and I set out shortly to make this an Awesome Friday. After viewing this clip, I have decided it may even [...]

I think Nine Inch Nails is a perfect example of what can be done when creators break the traditional distribution models.
When their contract with their label ended, they went digital, offering both physical CDs and MP3 downloads unencumbered by DRM and copy protection schemes. Now you can download their latest album for free (in multiple [...]
