The Banana Song will haunt your dreams. The photo of an iPhone 4 on the cover of the September 2010 issue of Macworld was taken with an iPhone 4. “He needed to know how Big Bird could possibly have arisen from evolutionary history: What are its relatives? How did it achieve such a unique bone […]

The story of the creation of the “Wanted” posters for Jonah Hex is pretty fascinating. About five years ago, on September 1, 2005, I sat at a coffee shop across the street from the Leaning Tower of Pisa and could not believe just how much it leans. And that was five years after they fixed […]

One thing this country has always enjoyed is a good drink. Whether it was rum on the Atlantic, bourbon at the races or that Bloody Mary at Sunday Brunch, alcohol is the American Drink. Boom! Dexter returns at the end of September. (Don’t watch the trailer if you didn’t see season 4 yet!) Don’t Eff […]

I think it’s safe to say that bluntcard.com is my new favorite ecard site. Ferris Club Few things are as cool as Batman riding a robotic unicorn over a rainbow full of dolphins. There was once a woman who had immortal cells. True fact. I live in Los Angeles, so I am almost always “near” […]

Let’s go for a swim! (Don’t forget your sunscreen!) A friend of mine discovered what may be the most horrifying cause of death in the history of the world. College football season starts in just about eight weeks. Much of it is televised. You should watch. Driving with His Lordship would make getting lost pretty […]

What Broke My Father’s Heart I have been in hysterics reading quotes from the fascinating lives of the people who live in my furniture catalogs … “Oh, dear. Our Q-Tip decanter is almost 1/5th depleted!” Lake Street Creamery. We guarantee IT WILL TURN YOU INTO A GOD.* The Swedish Chef cooks popcorn shrimp. The oil […]

“If a boot becomes the standard choice among war correspondents, I’m thinking it’s gotta be pretty damn good.” And now there is something else I want to buy. (A vortex cannon would be cool, too.) “Thousands of web designers make unforgivable spelling mistakes constantly.” Learning how to spell is actually quite easy. It’s amazing how […]

I love that Snoop Dogg recorded an ode to Sookie Stackhouse. If you want to really know what the difference is between Apple and every other technology company, read what Daring Fireball said about FaceTime. Just remember that most of us — including me, and I’ve been a computer programmer for almost twenty years — […]

Four agencies that specialize in Internet marketing — 10e20, Search and Social, Infinitenine, and Brent Csutoras Inc. — are joining forces in a roll-up to form BlueGlass Interactive. Why, yes, I do very much want a lightsaber. “It’s sort of nonsensical for a twice-divorced single mother of two to be using this line as seduction.” […]

Here’s some excellent advice from Mike Rowe, of Dirty Jobs fame: “Don’t be that guy. Don’t wait for the world to acknowledge your accomplishments.” (He’ll also help you find a job.) For @andybabb: A Hierarchy of Digital Distractions Where can I fly for how much? Twirdie is Twitter golf! The Earth is just amazing. (I […]
