McCain's Concession Speech
Was probably the best speech he gave throughout the entire election. If he had spoken like that throughout the campaign I think we would have had a different result ( Read more... ) -

Just a quick note today. If you haven't seen this truly priceless piece of news today I'm happy to point it out to you. I thought it was a joke but I've been reassured this is a real company with a real product. As I mentioned, it is priceless.

Moving
God I hate moving, as do most folks I'm sure. But when you can't get a single friend or family member to help, you can't afford movers to do the lifting for you, it rains like a bitch all day and PODS shows up 4 hours later than their ETA and then gives you attitude and fucks up your landlords grass, and hangs around just a bit too long after drop ( Read more... ) -
Michael Phelps is a Super Saiyan
I saw this on another site. I don't know who made it so I cannot credit them. I am neither a huge Olympics fan nor am I a huge Dragonball Z fan.
But this really is hilarious.

Marvel Zombies
Some fans of the Marvel Zombies comics have made a short trailer for a fake movie. It's pretty gross, yet pretty good.

Transformers - Less than meets the eye.
The new Transformers series is more of what was lousy about the old Tranformers with less credible art than ever before. The representation of Optimus Prime in the userpic associated with this journal entry makes me sad. I understand Japanese animation is seen as edgy these days with the excellent Teen Titans series and the Star Wars series and ( Read more... ) -
The Dark Knight
When I was young the first superhero I wanted to be was Barry Allen's "The Flash." The Flash was never much of a badass and once the mantle was passed to Wally West it became downright goofy but the idea of having all that time to do all those things really appealed to me ( Read more... ) -
Joss Whedon's Dr. Horrible
I know I haven't posted much but I hope to rectify that some in the coming days.

The Ice Age is Upon Us!
Stupid crappy stinkin winter.
I knew driving my Mustang in the snow of New England would be difficult. That I would have to be careful. This morning I go out to get in my car, a little worried I'm running late to find my parking lot is an ice skating rink. There is an inch or more of ice all over my car as well.
I found no less than 3 broken ice ( Read more... ) -
Surreality in politics
Anyone else notice Chuck Norris in the second row of the Republican Primary Debate last night? I know he's been active in Mike Huckabee's campaign but I have to say; after seeing all those politocos on stage and seeing all the glitz and polish of CNN's presentation, panning out to the audience to find Walker: Texas Ranger out there was an ( Read more... )
