Some of these are so subtle, it took me a little while to figure out.

Tori

Here is a short interview with TORI AMOS, in case you've missed it!

Another Funny Video

Here is a video of a cat's first encounter with snow. Cute & funny!

Ping Pong

I ran across this again recently. It's from a Japanese variety show, and it's Ping Pong Matrix-style. Very funny!

Star-ving

David Faustino (Bud Bundy from Married with Children) has his own series of shorts on YouTube called Star-ving. They are over the top, very politically incorrect, and feature Corin Nemec of Parker Lewis Can't Lose as his friend. These episodes are NSFW, by the way.

Mental Floss

There is a e-zine called Mental Floss. It's another site that has lots and lots of useless trivia, quizzes, and lists that you can spends hours reading (like I just did!).

Here is the site:

Update to earlier post

I recently found out something about using RealPlayer to download videos off the web. You have to use Mozilla Firefox and download the extension than enables you to do it. I didn't know about it because the extension was automatically downloaded for me.

Happy St. Patrick's Day and don't drink too much green beer!

Visualizing Enormous Numbers

Here are two sites that help us to visualize really big numbers.

The first one is called the MegaPenny Project:

It's aim is just to show how many of a number looks like, and they chose pennies.

The second one is called "What does one TRILLION dollars look like?" And it shows you what it would look like if you had that much in cash.

Loves Me, Loves Me Not!

This is from Snopes. Really funny IMO. The whole call is downloadable from the link provided.

Criminal Searches

Just how safe is it where you live?
You can find out with this website:

http://www.criminalsearches.com/default.aspx

They offer free searches on people, neighborhoods, criminal alerts and statistics.

The Tap unplugged!

This is a great video to watch for anyone who likes Spinal Tap! From the House of Blues in front of the press.

Oddee

This is another website that is all about lists. However, this one focuses on "odd, bizarre and strange things of our world, its daily articles and sections explore subjects from Science to Advertising and Technology". I spent a long time on it the other day.

Spider

This is a short film from Australian Nash Edgarton. It's a story about a man and his girlfriend and how wrong pranks can go.
