Interesting topic going on in Twitter. Because of recent celebrity deaths, a few fake death reports have been spreading. In particular Rick Astley, known for the famous 'rickroll'. More here:

Inspired by this, I made my own take on Rickrolling. Watch it through and enjoy!:

College Humor has created a playlist of various Michael Jackson Vids.  Mostly 'tributes' and parodies.  Most notable is the first one, with a group of prisoners doing the dance from 'Thriller'.  click here

What were your thoughts of him in general?

First, it was Governor Rowland of CT, then Eliott Spitzer of New York, then Blagovitch, now apparently Mark Sanford is in trouble.
For those who haven't followed the story, here's the rundown.  Mark Sanford, Governor of South Carolina, had been missing for the past week.  Supposedly without letting anyone know (particularly his office staff, family, and even the Lieutenant Governor), his office told reporters that he was hiking on the Appalachian trail (which, incidentally doesn't go through his state).  Well, it turns out that not only was he NOT hiking, he was 'vacationing' in Argentina (an altogether seperate country which is nowhere near South Carolina!)  Now I'm reading that he's had an affair!

More as this develops...

Today isjoshbrown 's birthday! Let's all wish him a happy day!

I'm following the Twitterfeeds of #iranelections, and a user change_for_iran.  I swear it reads like a Tom Clancy novel.  Both are worth checking out if you Twitter.

Probably the late 60s or late 80s.  Maybe even this decade.

Unfortunately, so does Zoidberg...

Another one I find 'disturbing' is Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
I just don't 'get' it at times.

The Wonder Twins and Marvin and Wendy from the Superfriends.  Seriously, why did all the heroes put up with them?  And strangely enough, they would never be around when the Legion of Doom!

No bunnies tho...

Some footage from this year's Memorial Day parade in Manchester:

I'm referring to The Return of Captain Invincible .  It's a 1983 superhero film with Alan Arkin (yep, Grandpa from Little Miss Sunshine).  It has elements of The Incredibles, Hancock, Dr. Strangelove, and Rocky Horror.  I only learned of it through filkertom .  I'm only 30 minutes into the movie, and I'm hooked!

Check it out!  Wait till you see the Death Star!  Vader himself seems like something from Rene Laloux.

I just added some annotations through Youtube's Annotation editor

It seems too early to be concerned, although I see some people have taken precautions:
