Altoids Tin Prayer Wheel

Imagine my surprise when my YouTube video was featured on a wikiHow page about Altoids tins.

The one in the video I made for Miranda, of Seattle Dharma Punx fame.

Rock, paper, scissors meets beer

Play rock, paper, scissors with your beer. Or while drinking beer. Well, just after opening a beer. If it's Sessions Lager. Oh just watch the damn video...

Why won't ABC air this alternative energy ad?

ABC is refusing to air Alliance for Climate Protection's Repower America ad. Why? Because it dares to challenge Big Energy?

Androd FX on the iPhone

Android FX for the iPhone absolutely rocks! I can play with it for hours. I even used it for the soundtrack for "Barcode Dogtags".

Sarah Palin Debate Flow Chart

With Glowing Hearts

For all of you who still believe that the International Olympic Committee promotes understanding, love, and unity through sports, think again. These assholes claim to have copyrighted the phrase "with glowing hearts" in advance of the Vancouver winter olympics. Hey bozos, this is a phrase from the Canadian national anthem.

Don't believe me? Read the lyrics to Oh Canada in Wikipedia for yourself. "With glowing hearts we see thee rise"

I'm a short 2+ hour drive south of Vancouver and I'm in the phone book. Come git me!

EarthCam Names Lava Lamp Webcam Top 10

EarthCam has named JetCityOrange's Lava Lite webcam one of the Top 10 Webcams.

Not bad for a humble Lava Lamp webcam in Seattle, ehhhh?

Lava Lamp Webcam

A quick Google search turned up not one Lava Lite webcam. So I set out to fix that by launching my own Lava Lamp webcam.

Modest, fun, and to the best of my knowledge, one of a kind. It's even spawned its own YouTube video:

Seattle Space Needle Webcam

Sometimes I can't shut off my head. Get an idea and won't let it go. Projects. My life seems to be filled with zany, wacky projects.

My latest is a webcam of the Space Needle, live from my balcony. It's a old Logitech webcam I've had for years, an ancient Thinkpad, and a homebrew DIY tripod contraption and plastic utility case. I'll photograph the setup at some point.

But for now, enjoy the view. Live from skyBox, West Seattle!

Bill O'Reilly's Producer

Yeah, yeah. You've probably seen the Bill O'Reilly blooper on YouTube by now. Very funny, very funny.

Now there's a video mashup that makes this classic even better (if that's at all possible). What a hoot!



Thanks to JB for bringing this to my/our attention!

Coffee Cup Tripod

Because I could.

Obama Rickrolls McCain

Gotta love them video mashups, especially when Barack rick rolls McCain.



Rick rolling. You remember rick rolling don't you?

Palin is racist.

This story about Sarah Palin being racist doesn't surprise me in the least. No wonder she's the Republican's VP candidate.
