Little Hoover Dam Break
by Steve West on March 2, 2008

This week's mini-flood o' links.
Ridiculous weatherman names. These are real. My wife subjects me to #11 nightly. I hate that guy.
List and video clips of the greatest horror movie weapons. I'd use any on #11 above. Twice.
My new band name: The Low Blood Pressures
Bach's Air on bottles.
Give this guy money in advance and he claims he'll send you stuff in the mail.
Best of TV show putdowns.
Looking for that latest addition to your headless doll collection? Better hurry. According to this guy, they're selling fast.
Stand-up of the week: Pablo Francisco

(Thanks, Steve... this should provide hours of profoundly pointless entertainment... and a never-ending quest for the perfect band name -- too much.)

All in a row, I *swear*: "The Emptied", "The Chippy", & "The Xantippe"

Golly! I think I'll send that guy $10 to think about me for a minute. I could use some deep contemplation! :P
Although, some star sand from Iriomote would be cool. I'd want to go there myself, though. I want to see one of those Iriomote cats I've heard so much about!!

That guy is a genius. I should have thought of it first.
But... *I* can think about you for *two* minutes for $15, Aaron -- I'm sure that I don't need to point out what a savings that is (25%!) -- what a deal! ...Or I could just do it for free. But no e-mail confirmations for that price -- sorry.

Vacation Week II
Took the girls to a petting zoo where they could not only look at the animals but interact as well. Saw some things of interest to me; an albino peacock (well, I don't know if it was albino but it was all white); petted a llama (their hair is kinda rough); the world's fattest rabbit (big as a poodle!); pigs, cows, horses, donkeys, turkeys & chickens & roosters (oh, my); a beautiful garden of vegetables and flowers; and lots of ducks and geese.

The Real Colon Blow Cereal
Holy metaphors, Batman! This recent All-Bran commercial from Kellogg's touts its ability to aid one in shitting enough bricks to build a barbecue. Go »

Crash Test Your Car
Curious about the performance of your car, or any other for that matter, in a crash test? Watch crash dummy after crash dummy suffer serious neck injury in front and side impact crash tests. You pick the make,model and year of car but sadly not the face painted on the dummy. Go »
Thorough Movie Reviews Revisited
Are you one of the group of people, like myself, who insist that they are not influenced by movie critics and make your film choices based on whim, fancy, instinct or some other method completely unrelated to some "professional's" opinion? Perhaps you should visit this website where you can rate (not review) movies yourself, and compare the result with a series of national reviewers to see whose opinion most closely matches yours. Maybe that particular reviewer deserves a second look since you two seem to be on similar movie viewing wavelengths. Go »
