Movie

I'm looking forward to the Hangover II (until 30 seconds ago, I didn't even know there was one in the works). But now I do and I am looking forward to it.

Game Time!

Play this game.

I'm not obsessed with photos


The above picture is from 1915. You read that right. Some smart Russian figured out a way to get color on to his photos. This may be my fifth or sixth photos link so I will try to cut back but still a worthy link. Photos are here.

MISFITS

If your idea of a good weekend is watching an entire season of one tv show that just happens to be an engaging, Wire-like, British tv drama about teenage misfits and all the episodes are uploaded onto youtube, then you're in luck. i watched the first ten minutes and it's pretty cool.

Sarah McLachlan Saves Human Lives, Too!

This is probably the best story I've heard on The Moth podcast since I started listening. You'd never expect this story to unfold as it does. I am adding the word "emphasis" for emphasis. Please listen.

Failure of Service

Justice Clarence Thomas has not asked a single question in oral arguments over the past 5 years. No other Justice has come close to this level of apathy. Instead of being engaged, this is how he spends his time in court:

"leaning back in his chair, staring at the ceiling, rubbing his eyes, whispering to Justice Stephen G. Breyer, consulting papers and looking a little irritated and a little bored"
