Here's some crap I found while trying to determine the best way to link to this.

The news around here this week was Obama's speech at the constitution center in Philly. You can watch it in its entirety on Youtube. While it may a little long, never have you heard a national politician speak so frankly about racial issues in America. Forget the pundits and the soundbites, watch it for yourself and make up your own mind. Although it is kind of sad that this stuff isn't patently obvious to everyone. You mean racism is bad?

In entertainment news, the John Adams miniseries on HBO is pretty good. Chock full of riveting Continental Congress action.

Elsewhere on HBO (apparently I am an unpaid shill for that network), Bob Odenkirk and David Cross are teaming up again for some sort of new show, dubbed David's situation. No word on whether there will be any taint-related sketches.

This butterfly knows what's up.

Shotgun tank rounds? That'll disperse a crowd in a hurry.

Keeping with the theme of videos this week: Youtube just announced their annual awards. It's a complete abortion that Powerthirst didn't win for comedy. Turbopuns are awesome.

Here's some sort of crazy spirograph that kept me entertained for a minute or three.

This week's video is a collection of clips from The Wire (what else?). Boris is the man. NSFW language/shotgun.


Finally we have this groundbreaking study that has determined that a large number of old people are retarded. This study confuses and frightens me.

That's it, I'm going to go con the American public. Enjoy your weekend.
