As sort of a followup to my Nerd Songs post, there’s a lot of musical tributes to those powerful plumbers, Super Mario Brothers. Most of them are videos of tribute medleys.
The Great Console Debate… that we'll have
BBC News posted an article about what next generation system they think is best, with each reporter taking a different one. We’re much smarter than any British people, so what system do you think is best: the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, or Nintendo Revolution? Which one (or ones) are you planning on buying, and why?

It’s still not enough to topple classics such as “Carpe DM: Seize the Dungeon Master” and “Jesus Saves (and takes half damage)” I do like that Wizards is expanding to […]
Interweb LOTR goodness
First, for those of you who are fans of WoW and LotR, there’s this amusing animated gif. And for you sophisticates, there’s the 1940’s classic Lord of the Rings starring Humphrey Bogart. (Quicktime required) –Dave
"Perhaps this is a passable day to die."
Star Wreck: The Pirkinning is a full length parody science fiction movie made entirely by some Finns and a lot of computers. It is a fan made film, but from the dead on computer generated ships, you might not know it until you actually saw the actors.
