Let's Save the World!

This is one of those amazing videos that will go viral with those of us that already have a fairly good grasp of the situation but probably wont make rounds among those that need to see it the most.
It's a video (live and animation) called "The Story of Stuff" that precisely and intelligibly describes the ins and outs our consumerist society and it's global effect.
The video is 20 minutes long but don't let that stop you from watching it! If you can't sit still for that long, you can watch it in parts by clicking the 7 chapter buttons at the top of the screen to watch that chapter or get more info on it.

Zombie 3.0 - Mission Accomplished

As planned, on October 27th at 6 pm in NYC,  1,722 people in 52 cities on 5 continents danced "Thriller" simultaneously for Thrill The World. Below is a video that features the totally unnecessary 1 minute countdown and about 2/3 of the performance. I'm the one in the mummy costume and Autumn is in the red dress to my side.

Full dance video after the jump, but I'm not in it much at all.

What's the point of a relationship without passive aggressive manipulation?

So we've established that I'm somewhat obsessed with The Hills. At least with watching it, I don't watch the aftershows online or troll the interweb for gossip and such. But I did come across this animated conversation on Salon between Heidi and Spencer that I found very entertaining.

Talk about hand eye coordination!

Ok who wants to organize a group of my friends to perform this for me on my birthday? Seriously, I would love you forever and ever.

Underground Entertainment

This guy was playing the buckets and trashcan on the Uptown 4,5,6 train platform on Saturday September 8th and was really incredible. Unfortunately, my little camera, as much as I love it, doesn't do his performance justice. I had to stop taping because my train came but shortly after I stopped he busted right through one of his buckets; something he was vocally upset about.

Dr. Diego and Mr. Wiggles

Those of you that know our cat Diego probably think he's just a big bitchity kitty. And he is most of the time. But when he finds a patch of sun, his personality can make a 180 and he gets all wiggly on his back and wants to be pet and loved on. This is when we call him Mr. Wiggles. Michael and I filmed this video on my camera one morning and shortly after I got my new iMac I took the chance to play around with iMovie '08. I present "Whirling Diego"
