Whoa. This is pretty cool. I wouldn’t want to be up that close when a bulb explodes, though.

Sean Penn’s and Dustin Lance Black’s moving Oscar acceptance speeches:

It’s all over the tubes. Some dude was surfing Google Earth and discovered ancient city streets under water off the coast of Africa.

Via CNET:

From what it sounds like, a British aeronautical engineer was playing around with the new Google Earth 5.0, which includes undersea data, and noticed something funny off the coast of Africa, about 600 miles west of the Canary Islands, that resembled a pattern of a street grid. According to the United Kingdom’s Press Association, the pattern of streets equated to an area the size of Wales.

But when it comes to Atlantis, Google totally had to rain on everyone’s parade. “It’s true that many amazing discoveries have been made in Google Earth, including a pristine forest in Mozambique that is home to previously unknown species and the remains of an ancient Roman villa,” a statement from Google read. “In this case, however, what users are seeing is an artifact of the data collection process. Bathymetric (or sea floor terrain) data is often collected from boats using sonar to take measurements of the sea floor. The lines reflect the path of the boat as it gathers the data.”

I smell a cover-up!

This is great! And, it reminds me of a now defunct gay porn review site called IDidn’tOrderAnyPizza.com. (Very very NSFW)

I don’t have a TV at the moment, so I’m missing out on Sunday night programming. However, I happened to see this episode of Family Guy while I was in Sonoma over the weekend. It’s a total riot. Christian Bale goes apeshit on Peter Griffin. You’ve got to see it to believe it. And if the Youtube gets pulled for copyright violation (many other copies of it have already been pulled), the go check it out over at TMZ.

After 19 years, it was about effing time for a change of pace. I’m pleased with this update to their new main title sequence:

I don’t know why I love cute pictures of kitties so much. Probably recently reignited by the new kitty living in our house named Xena: Warrior Kitten.

I have never seen an episode of Flight of the Conchords. As I was watching this clip in my living room today, my roommate said, “Is that Flight of the Conchords? Here, check it out, I have the first disc of season 1 from Netflix. It’s addictive”

So much for getting outside and enjoying the sun today.

If that ain’t the gol-darned truth, then I dunno what is…

At first I thought this was a Photoshop hoax. But no, it’s in the non-blog news (The Denver Post) too.

Here’s what one blogger says:

“Does this make you want to fly the friendly skies? Not meant to represent the local Bronco’s sports franchise. The artist who sculpted this died when it “fell” on him during construction. Many locals want it put out to pasture.”

How is it that Brazilian men are all so freaking hot?

more pics over at Made in Brazil. Thanks to Kenny for the heads up.

This is genius! And, now that I know the formula, I’ll be measuring every “haha” I get on IM. Be warned.

Check out another brilliant image from OMGimsodrunkLOL’s Flick stream after the jump.
