Can We Please Stop
With the freakin' bride cutting her hair video?
It's not funny, it's painful to listen to, and it's probably a fake.
Stop showing it.
I'm lookin' at you, Today Show. Jesus Christ, you must have played that thing ten times this morning. Enough! End it!

The Internet Is Blowing Up
Seriously.
Today, with news of a new round of To Catch a Predator, and these two amazing videos, I don't know how the tubes don't get all clogged up with pure joy.

The History of Porn
For G4's Adult Entertainment Expo, I was tasked with coming up with a series of short skits about the history of pornography.
This is what happens when you let that happen.
Enjoy.

Everyone is Trying to Get Me Back into WoW
Now that the expansion pack is out, everyone's been re-activating their accounts and firing up their old characters.
So far, I have resisted.
I spent a LOT of time in that game when it first came out, and I don't think I can or want to sink that much time into something like that again.
When I quit that game, I started hiking. I started writing again. I started going to the gym. I read more. I started the Modern Hiker.
But seeing everyone play again has me itching.
I walked past our 'game capture lab' today, and the place was like a freakin' opium den.
I must be strong!
... unless I'm overreacting. Is it even possible to play a game like that responsibly?

New Hike
Over on the Modern Hiker.
This one's even got video! Very rough video, but video nonetheless. Thrill as I hike up a mountain during a Severe Wind Advisory!

College Saga
College kids today, with their affordable, powerful Macs and easy to use video editing software.
They don't know what they got.
But this is pretty amazing. It's a dead-on Final Fantasy treatment of life at Babson College. Yes, the gimmick's been used before, but never this well. There's a bunch of episodes at the director's site if you're diggin what you're watchin.
