Lawyers...It's a good thing they are earning their high salaries.  Otherwise the makers of unicorn meat would be out of control.  We can't just let them go about all willy-nilly infringing upon the slogan for pork. If I saw this in my local supermarket I'd be inclined to think it was the best grocery ever [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCUJrn68uSM]

If the question is, "how may Mario themed videos can you have in your best web junk?"  The answer would be I don't know, but here's one more[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjcFQquHipE]

This is probably the best news I read this week.  Even though it'll probably only destroy the memories from my childhood As far as I know no human has ever completed a game of Monopoly.  But it turns out that it is theoretically possible in under a minute

This video is great for 57 seconds.  Don't waste your time after that

This is why I don't ever want a job doing computer customer service

Most important link this week -> Go Here and vote for Danny so one of my former students can win tickets to some country music thing that is apparently a pretty big deal These buildings are teh awesome

I am ashamed to even live in a country where this hat is a possibility. (Warning, it has a swear)

On the same week as the Lost finale there's really no more appropriate video to share than this one

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iggE4ImYwyc]

But if that video doesn't do it for you, enjoy Iron Baby which is awesome

This week in best web junk all you get is you get two very different videos. First - A really neat effect caused by a frame rate in sync with a helicopter blade.  [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8_6NRXfRVE]

And second - An acappella group singing Lady Gaga.  It is quite entertaining.

UFOs over Paris? The only thing on TIWYF I have ever wanted to attempt to make

I think more businesses should have this requirement.

Once again researchers learn something in a study that the Bible already told us

If you read my post on Wednesday you know I am unhappy with the greed of Delta Airlines.  Well, apparently I am not he only one with an airline horror story

In light of that airline rant earlier this week I'll post the third in the series of United Breaks Guitars videos.  I posted the previous two here.

This passive aggressive note is the best thing I've seen in a long time Have 10 minutes and want to play a fun flash game - Then you are welcome 1-button Bob (My best is 388 I'm sure I could trim off at least 30 clicks)

Amen

I can't imagine you made it through the week on the interwebs without seeing this vid, but it is awesome.  Also it must be hard to play guitar with only 4 fingers

I love fishing, but if I ever reeled in something that looks like this I'd probably freak out.  (Probably not gonna happen though since it's nearly extinct) This movie will probably be better than Transformers 2

This cannot be real. But if it is, it's pretty impressive

<rant>With all the talk about Avatar lately I've been wondering why movies count the amount of money they take in rather than actual ticket sales like every other form of entertainment.  I mean seriously, records & books count units sold.  TV counts ratings, not ad money taken in.  Why do movies report money.  Of course movies set records for box-office reciepts all the time.  Movie prices inflate faster than any product I can think of.  </rant>

Finally, somebody listed top movies by ticket sales

This is so brilliant and it is by far the best video I've seen this week.   It only has one, but be warned -

it has a swear[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtGSXMuWMR4]

The Final Season of Lost is Coming

,

It's less than a week away

And I have been rewatching the series since Christmas.  I'm only about halfway thorugh season 3 right now bu watching it again reminds me of just what a great show it is.

Like everyone else I have a list of questions that I hope is answered by the final season.  I know that not every single thing I wonder about will be answered, but here are the 10 questions that I feel are most important.

Let me phrase them in the form of   What’s the deal with…

  1. Jacob/Man in Black
  2. The Island (I know this one is pretty vague)
  3. The numbers
  4. Walt and/or Vincent (the ability to make stuff happen)
  5. Richard Alpert – why doesn’t that dude age?
  6. Christian Shepherd
  7. The smoke monster
  8. Why children can’t be born on the island
  9. That giant statue
  10. Everybody being connected. Did the island choose them or what’s the deal with that?

So those are my questions.  What did I leave out?

Finally, here's a promo to get you fired up.

This is pretty great

I for one am proud of the influence Martin Luther King Jr. on this country.  Enjoy this video of his final speech autotuned.  This autotune is not for comedy, but for tribute, and it is great. Also for my Southern Baptist readers, I recommend this article

I am ashamed to say I missed one of these A headline that headline writers dream about

I like fishing, but I've never caught anything that can be measured in Miley Cyruses (This story would be better if it was less Brittish.  Lots of these celebrities are unfamiliar to me)

Obvious headlines - "Females more likely to test for Women's diseases"

These are awesome - Snakes on a Plane for the Atari 2600

I do not watch American Idol, but it continues to produce stars.  Like this 62 year old Hip-Hop pioneer

This story is just so amazingly terrible. Also, I believe it could easily happen in the US The 00 decade in logos and icons.  This thing is pretty neat

Of course everyone has seen this video this week

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2XymdmLQhE] Here's an interview with the lady who is now famous for it.

I have been disconnected from the web for most of this week so this is actually something I saw on the web way back on Dec 17 2009. This video enhances the stupidest common thing on all the procedural shows.  You can't make an image where there is nothing.  At least on Flash Forward after 3 weeks, they admitted that they couldn't improve a security video image very much.
