The funniest eight minutes of my day today.  I do sometimes sit back as I’m trying to get my open source software to install on my friends webserver – from work mind you – , and think “man, this is some amazing shit”

Apparently, the following video was completed entirely in After Effects. Very impressive if that is the case.

In an unprecedented move, Marvel have signed the ever-entertaining Samuel L. Jackson to a, get this, 9 picture deal. The films will include the reprisal of his Nick Fury character and include Captain America, Thor, The Avengers, and The Shield. (source)

Samsung has officially launched an attack of cute. This takes a whole new spin on the Cute Overload site and tops everything with the Evil Hedgehog… very amusing. (source)

Should you feel the need for a chuckle and some great art critique, you should really check out this blog. You know, there is nothing more entertaining than the sentiment of a child at times. I love some of her quotes and I honestly feel, at times, she is not that far off in her judgements. Thanks Sarah!

A seagull in St. John ’s , NL has developed the habit of stealing Doritos from a neighborhood convenience store.  The seagull waits until the Manager isn’t looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos.

Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds.

The seagull’s shoplifting started early this month when he first swooped into the store in St. John ’s , and helped himself to a bag of Doritos.  Since then, he’s become a regular.  He always takes the same type of chips.

The Manager thinks it’s great because people are coming to watch the feathered thief make the daily grab and run, and that’s good for business, and especially since customers have begun paying for the seagull’s stolen bags of Doritos because they think it’s so funny.

However, the Manager did say, “This is Newfoundland , and if that seagull starts to grab a 6-pack of beer to go along with the Doritos, I may have to put a stop to it.”

Great spot playing around with the sound controls of a television.
