YouTube

Well, the DMCA has bitten me, and as a result, my YouTube account has been terminated. After the many videos -- mostly movie trailers -- that I've uploaded. I don't blame YouTube for this, they're doing the CYA thing. I blame the movie studios. I was busily promoting their films -- sharing the material they produced to market their movies. This could have resulted in only one thing -- more sales for them. Instead, they've decided in their wisdom that they would rather not have more sales. I don't get it. It's copystupidity.

Hurt

Two versions ... the Johnny Cash cover and the NIN original. This is a song for when everything is going wrong. You know what I mean. When you can't seem to get it right. When no matter what you do, it just seems to get worse. When it feels overwhelming. When you want it to go away. When you're to blame -- it's all your fault. When you don't want to feel, because all you feel is hurt -- and all you've done is hurt. if I could start again a million miles away I would keep myself I would find a way Johnny Cash, Hurt Nine Inch Nails, Hurt (this is a disturbing video, don't play it unless you're familiar with NIN)

The Daily Show - Stem Cell Research

White House hypocrisy.

George Carlin on the Ten Commandments

This is really just an audio file. It's George Carlin -- it's funny -- and there are less and less commandments when Carlin is finished.

The Big Lebowski - F_cking Short Version

The most under-used word in the Big Lebowski -- fuck! How far this word has come since its Anglo-Saxon origins. Originally, it wasn't an expletive ... but despite being one today, it's quite prolific.

Stewart on Lebanon Coverage

This would be funny if it wasn't so fucking true.

Colbert and Congress

Can Stephen Colbert really get a congressman to declare that he enjoys cocaine and prostitutes because it's a fun thing to do? You betcha! Proves that politicians are highly suggestive. Now all we have to do is suggest some cliff for them to go on a leisurely walk on.

Daily Show: Net Neutrality and Ted Stevens

Yes, Ted Stevens is an idiot. But, it's hardly his fault that he's in charge of regulating the internet -- for blame, we should only turn to the voters that voted him in. Those voters are fucking idiots.

Daily Show: The Internet Is Not A Big Truck: Redux

Cocotte Minute

Another from Gobelins. What really happens in the kitchen when a chicken must race to the pot?

Pyrats

Another animation from the students of Gobelins animation school. In this one, a pirate rescue of a mate about to be hanged, goes bad. There is no honour amongst thieves.

Burning Safari

Burning Safari is a cool piece of computer animation produced by students of Gobelins -- a French animation school.
