Batman + Government bailout.
I’m sick of reading about the bailout as much as you are but this is stellar.

1. Touch ‘start’ 2. Wait for 3, 2, 1. 3. Memorize the position of the numbers, then click the circle from the smallest number to the biggest number. 4. At the end of game, computer will tell you the age of your brain.
I’m apparently 22! Though I’m curious what the upper and lower limits are to this, and the overall trend. I mean, certainly if you get...

stop the insanity
I just yelled at my kittens in some gibberish language I’ve never spoken before for no apparent reason. Yeah I know?!? What the hell?

I really like the way the new Hardly Working turned out.
Jake Hurwitz from College Humor is seen in their latest episode of Hardly Working wearing a Homage t-shirt - made by Ryan Vesler - a Columbus native, and Ohio University graduate. Hell yeah!
Oh my. Great performances from many fine Tumblrs. Josh really delivers his big line and I think Streeter...
Golden Parachutes
dihard:
A golden parachute is a clause in an executive’s employment contract that specifies he will receive benefits in the event the company is taken over and the executive is let go. A golden parachute can come in the form of severance pay in cash, stock options, bonuses, etc. The term more loosely refers to an executive’s severance package - regardless of takeover. Golden parachutes are...
Guess who’s torrent of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (seasons 1-3) just finished downloading? It me!

I really don’t think there is anyone funnier than Sarah Silverman.
I will say that this is ‘recycled material’ from the Jesus is Magic DVD (proof) which I’m guessing she realizes no one bought (I downloaded it) … but I’m not going to hold that against her because she’s hilarious and I appreciate the message here.
Lame
I know I’m not alone when I say that I hate the new tumblr radar err I mean explore feature. I’ve seen people posting about it and its faults before and I mostly agree with them but I just never cared enough to re-blog it.
With that being said, what I will take the time to bitch about this evening is repetitive content. Remeber when I posted that Bright Eyes song on August 19th? It...
Watchpilnick:
Toccata and Fugue in D minor, J. S. Bach with scrolling score. The visualization gives a unique look into the composition of the piece, it’s fantastic. The Clair de Lune is another to watch if you enjoyed this. Many more and info here, including a tool to make your own.
I guess this is what Piano Hero would look like…
I think this is neat because it takes something so complicated...

Here’s a really neat video all about the history of computing. Usually, one would be hard pressed to compact all that information into a simple little lecture but amazingly the “Superbrothers” have managed to squish it into a four minute video. Add to this the cool geeky music of Jim Guthrie and two dancing pixelated scientists and we end up with...
America’s No. 1 Export is … Debt! →
Here’s an interesting article by Justin Fox for TIME about how US has been selling $700 billion in debt securities to foreigners every year (the number is the same as the bailout plan, but that’s just a coincidence) and how the party’s coming to an end (maybe)

1. Return to simplicity. Simplification is about de-cluttering your life. It’s not just de-cluttering our homes and spaces though, it’s simplifying our mental and emotional realms. It’s shedding the baggage of self-limiting beliefs and constant mental chatter. It’s finding some quietude in your life.
I don’t always agree with these lists that zen habits comes up with but this one has some...

nooooo! Paul Newman was the man.
I’m starting to understand how old people feel when all of their friends start dying off. This is terrible.

The Austin City Limits music fest started today and runs through the weekend. You can stream the live performances from this site. The live video requires Windows Media Player, so Mac users may need to install this plugin. I wish I was there in person again this year, but this is the next best thing.
