Now in High Def
Observations from evening number one with High Definition DirecTV service:
Some things should not be in HD. Dirty Jobs, for instance.
Frogs have pores. Who knew?
My head kind of hurts. This is like watching a moving version of your computer monitor.That is all for now, I think. I’m rather enjoying this upgrade but […]

While in Annapolis Today…
05.04.08 | Permalink | 6 CommentsI officially purchased the nerdiest thing I’ve ever owned. Well, within recent memory. Kate and I were in Capitol Comics, searching for Transmetropolitan Book #8 when I saw her. Hanging in a box without corners on the wall high overhead: my very own Six. Now, I too can be given ideas […]

¡Ahora con espacio para mas humanos!
I’m entirely in love with this advert for the new Ford Ka that’s running in Spain and various other countries that a) have clever advertising and b) have Ford cars that don’t suck. I’ve now watched it about fourteen times. I really think I should probably hang it up with the whole “being […]

Oh, the perfect clip
04.16.08 | Permalink | 3 CommentsNot only does Jon Stewart pretty much accurately sum up the whole of Western PA, he also finally explains my stance on elitism in very easy to follow (and hilarious) words and pictures.
If Obama really said what he said and is, truly, an elitist my vote has been secured.

Some Things Really Don’t Change
Alex shared with me this video tonight. Rather amusing listening to Gore Vidal talk about the state of the world in 1968, especially as we come up on the fortieth anniversary of his words. I especially like his use of the term “gorgeous lunacy” towards the end.

Toby has a blog
You might be aware that many cast members of The Office (US) have myspace accounts that they update while on set (I think), but I was pleasantly surprised that Toby (the one that everyone loves to hate) is one of the cast members who blogs. He is pretty funny (and has also written/co-written some episodes).

Another EW Interview
Here’s another Entertainment Weekly interview, this time with Josh Schwartz, creator of The O.C. He answers fan-posted questions about the entire series, including last night’s series finale (which I haven’t watched yet!).

Watch Out! LOST returns tonight!
Just a reminder for everyone (including myself): LOST is finally returning from it’s three-month long hiatus with a new episode, “Not in Portland.” Catch it tonight at 10PM (it’s on ABC, in case you’ve forgotten).
If you want “an insightful glimpse into the lives of some of the survivors of the doomed Oceanic Airlines flight 815,” […] -

The Commercials
02.05.07 | Permalink | 5 CommentsEven though the actual game disappointed, I definitely thought that the Super Bowel ads were excellent.
My favorite was probably the pregame Combos ad, which I can’t find on YouTube. It continued the (new to me) “What your mom would feed you if your mom was a man” theme. I did manage to find two older […] -

Delayed wow…
So, you are listening to Muse, correct? How could you not be…Black Holes and Revelations is probably one of the most epic pop albums ever. If you - for whatever unfathomable reason - aren’t hooked, you definitely need to see this video of their performance of “Starlight” from the MTV Europe Music Awards:
