How to...

I just found a little web site that has many "How to" videos. It's great. You can learn how to play guitar or fix your car... or you can learn how to pick up chicks in grocery stores or, my personal favorite, learn how to "smack talk". Thomas, this one's for you:

Ryan Tapp tells us how we can be tools, just like him! Very degrading! [I had to remove the stupid video, it kept autoplaying!]

Frodo

Jon,

Have you heard this song from Flight of the Conchords? It's pretty funny.

Guitar Heroes

I was surprised at how popular the game Guitar Hero became. It seemed like such a stupid idea to me. "Let's repackage Dance Dance Revolution with a fake guitar-looking thing!" Anyway, there is still no doubt about who the real Guitar Heroes are. Here is some awful awesome footage from some live performances*.

*Listen for Enter Sandman from Eric Clapton!

My Next Life

In my next life I hope to be a Cannonballer.
What, you may ask, is a Cannonballer? The speed record for driving across America (New York to Los Angeles) is 32 hours and 7 minutes and is called the Cannonball Run. That means, to beat this record, one would have to maintain an average speed of 90 miles per hour the entire way from coast-to-coast.

Read Jon's blog as he documents his ficticious treck to Cali, this WIRED article about a real life Cannonballer, and watch this video, made in the late 70's (I think) of an F1 racer in the pre-dawn early morning Paris streets.
