The Website is Down

Here’s a great little video which has a Sales Guy vs. a web dude. I love how he’s playing Halo throughout it all anyway. Oh, and the way the icons are on the desktop is priceless.

Movie Title Screens

Well, If you ever wanted to see the title screen any of over a thousand different movies, Steven Hill’s Movie Title Screen Page is for you.

There are literally over 1000 differnet movies, and more being added often.  Many have different forms, like Laserdisc, and DVD, and Blu-Ray.  I didn’t see and HD-DVD, but there were a few betas.

Here are a few screens I picked out from movies I like.

Sky Captain is in 1080p

spiderman 2

terminator 2

There are many, many more over at his site, all organized by title.  There are quite a few classics, and ones from before the 1950s.  Also, if there’s one you love that’s not there, you can submit it yourself.

Indiana Jones 4 script

indy 4 poster moasic

Well, I enjoyed Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull, some other people didn’t apparently.  Mostly the writer of this abridged script.  I’ll admit, its pretty funny, and this is my favorite part:

KAREN ALLEN

Cate wants to return the Crystal MacGuffin to the ancient City of Gold.

HARRISON FORD

City of Gold? Isn’t that what Nicolas Cage was looking for in National Treasure 2? Are we seriously getting the plot for our shitty sequel to Indiana Jones by ripping off the plot of a shitty sequel to a shitty knock-off of Indiana Jones? I feel like that should unravel the space-time continuum or something.

National Treasure 2 doesn’t hold a candle to National Treasure, which in turn doesnt hold a candle to Indiana Jones (1, or 3(2 is worse then 4)).  But anyway, just thought you’d like that.

The shield will be down in moments…

Echo Base wifi

…you may start your landing.

Whoever this is officially has the greatest wireless network name ever.  The only thing I ask of you is if you are out there, send us an email.  Because we want a picture of it with no encryption for just a second so we can say “The shield is down!”

Oh, and this was also while waiting in line at the Apple Store in SoHo Wedensday night.

The Zune Car

Zune car

While waiting inline at the Apple Store in SoHo last night to see Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway promote their new movie Get Smart, this car passed by which clearly has the Zune logo on it’s spare wheel cover, and on the side window.  Clearly that person is obsessed.

Here’s a bonus picture of me and John Hodges after the event.

me and john

We missed Steve, and Anne apparently, but John was walking around, and caught a picture with him.  Stephen Colbert was also there, he did the interview, we missed him walking out too.

Google’s Favicon Feedback

Well, it seems that there are a whole bunch of people who don’t like Google’s new favicon that they switched to last weekJohn Michael Boling set up an internet petition to bring back Google’s old one.

Turns out that he really didn’t have to go through all that trouble, cause Google says on their Blog that they want your ideas.  And they even let you submit them! You have till June 20, 2008, so get to it!

I.Q. Test

108

Apparently, I have an I.Q. of 108 after taking the A.E.C Offical I.Q. Test, for 2004-2005.  Not bad, that’s average apparently.  I don’t know.  It was a 20 minute timed test asking various math, matching, and geometry problems.  I was able to get all the geometry ones, those were easy.  The math ones were alright, and the “which one is different” was simple.

The Dice problem was the hardest one i thought.  I spent a good five minutes on that one, and finally guessed in the end.  I’m not gonna put what I guessed, cause I don’t know if its right, and dont want to spoil it for you.

I like how it doesnt give the correct answers, this way you can’t cheat and get a better I.Q.  Then again, this is the internet, so you could probably find all these answers pretty easy anyway.

Oh well, I enjoyed it.

Best Stumbles 2

A sequal to the original Best Stumble pictures, these are better, and wronger.  Again, most of these come from ImageChan, which I already knew was a wrong place, but now i know for sure just how messed up it is.  And also again, a disturbing amount involve Hitler humor…

The whole list is after the click this time, because there are just a few really, really wrong ones now…

World Bear Project

Just read this sales pitch from the World Bear Project:

Founded in 2008, the World Bear program began with a mother’s love and ends with you today.

It began with a young boy in a poverty-stricken section of South Africa, loved nothing more than his stuffed toy, a simple teddy bear. He also had a passion for learning about new places and would stare at pictures of different lands for hours.

Unfortunately, the boy was stricken with ALS at a young age and is already bedridden. His mother sent his stuffed bear to relatives in the Netherlands so he could see his bear in pictures in new and wonderful places. Unfortunately and accidentally, the bear was lost in the mail and never reached its destination.

After hearing the story from his mother, we became passionate about spreading our new found friend’s story to everyone, and using his mother’s idea to let her child see the world outside his room, and make many new friends.

So we ask you, please accept this large cutout of the boy’s bear and let your children take a picture with the bear. Anyone and anywhere is great, we just want more pictures of more friends for our friend.

Please aid our cause in brightening the future of this little boy, and bringing the world closer to him, and closer together!

Doesn’t that sound just heart warming?  Until you see the picture of the bear that is:

Pedo Bear

Yes, the great powers that be on the intenet have set up a legit looking scam to get parents the world over to voluentary have their children pose with Pedo Bear.  Oh how I simply cannot wait for these pictures to slowly start coming in, clearly some parents will be clueless.  But the real fun will come when someone tries to sue someone else about this, thinking that Pedo Bear is a real life pedophile.  Oh, the day that happens will be a great day indeed!
