Nature's first green is gold,

There's nothing about this video I don't like. I loved The Muppets (it was everything I hoped it would be and more). And Jim Parsons was just brilliant casting in the movie, it was awesome to see him pop up. Congrats to Bret Mckenzie (one half of the Flight of the Conchords) for his Oscar win ( Read more... ) -

In the early Eighties we had a TI-99 home computer that was both a video game console (it took cartridges) and a basic home computer (it literally ran BASIC). My brother and I had learned some BASIC in school that we could run on it - mostly just 20 GOTO 10 which was always good for a laugh when you're a kid. It had various cartridge video games.

This is my mom's best friend's cat, Google, who likes to impersonate a snake. He's amazingly long, skinny and elegant looking - like a cat from an Egyptian sculpture. He is in the running for Tucson's Pet Idol. Please vote for him. :) Today and tomorrow are the last days you can vote.

This is a little late but it's been bugging me for a few days, after watching Glee the other night. It's great to see it again, I've missed it... but darnit, "Fat Bottomed Girls" is not an offensive song! I mean, I guess offense is in the eye of the beholder, but to me it's always been a paean to us hot chubby chicks, and what is wrong with that? ( Read more... ) -
