Click onthe first in the list, “Follow the Leader” to see my Nascar/Goodyear spot, though it appears most of me is in the Delete Bin (previously known as the ‘cutting room floor’).

Some are not surprising (The Barney theme song; Deicide).  Some are (esp. the pro-American anthems that don’t seem that annoying).

Cuba’s state newspaper is called “Granma.”  How oddly comforting.  “What’s Granma say today, honey?” “Oh, that nice man is retiring.  Good for him.”

@highinustrial: That’s ironic considering his oft-quoted stance on the semicolon: “First rule: Do not use semicolons. They are transvestite hermaphrodites representing absolutely nothing. All they do is show you’ve been to college.”

Ever wanted to know how to play the theremin?  This adorable, though quite nervous and not well-spoken, young woman will show you how (at about 6 mins and 12 mins in, the rest is some nice theremin standards)!

If you live in LA and have nothing better to do tonight, come check out some UCB-styled long form improv at the Sierra-Gardner Stage at 1444 North Sierra Bonita Ave. in Hollywood (near Meltdown and Toi).  The show is FREE (though there is a donation bucket) and beer is two bucks.  We’re sharing the 8-9 slot with Them Do This, but stick around for other groups, including the old UCBLA house...

Mario Kart Wii: Japanese Release Date Confirmed? →
April 10th, eh?  Comes with a wheel you say?  Hmm.  I’ve been very impressed with Nintendo’s speed in getting all their franchise titles onto the Wii so quickly, getting all major games out in its first two years on the market.  (Unless someone out there is waiting for an updated Gyromite or Ice Climber.)

Usually it’s an easy fix (once I realized what was happening), I just say “I’m sorry, but you want 888, not 818.” However, when I don’t answer at 5:30 AM, and you get my voicemail, you ought to...

As she handed me my “I Voted” sticker I held it aloft and declared, “This is what it’s all about!”  She then asked if I had “little ones” at home, proffering more stickers.  I thought it obvious I do not.

If Frank Zappa were alive today he’d host his own perverse, weekly version of The Lawrence Welk Show on Comedy Central, complete with full band and scatological sketches.  Or maybe on MTV Comedy.

@STAMMR: All I get when I finish this survey is a dating site portal, and no tally of whacked five-year-olds.  I did find this ever-so-charming personal: im rugged but im humble. i have a thing for words and people who know how to use em. im constantly learning. need somebody that fits perfectly in the passenger side of my car called life. Smell me? The gals must be banging down his door.  If you...
