Darth Vader midnight wake-up call

Would it be sad to admit I really want to do this? Yes, it would.

Training for the Olympics

I haven't laughed this hard in a while.

Signs of the times.

Some of these just beg the question...why?















I wonder what size the paper is?

The world's biggest pencil. Yup, it's big. Although I do have to wonder where you buy a sharpener for that thing.

The video that kills...

no, not the one from The Ring. The other one.

iTruth...the new campaign from (rotten) apple

11 posters in a new campaign from the folks at rotten apple, a new subsidiary of apple that seeks to do a little good using the immense power of advertising. I think I'm torn between iDidit and iBlow.

Bush tries to pardon a war criminal...himself

In another astounding move by our soon-to-be retired president, he's trying to pass legislation that redefines war crimes. AND that himself and his administration are pardoned of any wrongdoing, basically because their treatment of prisoners went against the Geneva convention. Talk about tying up loose ends before you bolt.

The world's largest mouse invasion...

...we're talking millions of mice here. There were so many, and they were so hungry, that they started eating live pigs.

Tazed for asking a question

What the hell is going on with the world? This is some strange Orwellian s**t!

You know that expression "Don't choke...?"

It seems apt here. Never try the fake choking gag, people may not realize you're serious when it actually happens for real. Classic.

New pics from the set of The Dark Knight.

Really digging some of these. I won't be revealing why there are so many Batman's or I'll spoil the movie for you. But this promises to be a great slice of entertainment.



























The best way to direct traffic

We could use this guy in our state. Probably yours too.

Darth Simpson and Bart Skywalker

Very well done fan parody. No apologies needed.

This is one feisty kitten

Hungry fella?

The largest Piranha in the world

This thing could take your head off.

80's (and some 70's) TV show opening credits.

Knight Rider theme tune...on flute.

This really does sound cool. And if you want the original, check out the video beneath it.



Download and save YouTube videos...easy.

Ok, the VO is not exactly the best in the world, but I love how simple this is. Basically, you just find the video you want on youtube, then go up to the address bar and replace the start of the address (youtube.com) with voobys.com. The rest you leave, it takes you straight to a page that lets you click and save the vid. Genius!

Thankfully, this post has no sound.

Ouch. Seriously.

Would you like some wood?

This guy over at the Jewelry Channel has got some.

For all you folks bragging about 10 megapixels, check this out.

How to pick a padlock

I recently lost the key to the padlock on my garden gate. After 15 minutes of serious Dremmel action, I got it off. This would have been a lot easier.
