Star Wars Link of the Day
This one is a little cuter than most. Thanks, Rachel.
 
Hurra Torpedo
Out of the blue, Tony sent me this. Don't ask, just watch the video. And if you want more, you can find it here. (To quote an audience member, "refreshingly disturbing.")
 
StuffOnMyCat.com
Got this from Marty. The game is simple. See how much stuff you can pile onto your cat, post the pictures.

Your comic strip of the day
My World of Warcraft playing hasn't yet reached this level of importance in my life, but I imagine it's only a matter of time.
 
The H. P. Lovecraft Historical Society
... Ok, if you need this site explained to you, you're not going to get it. Start here. For those of you who don't need this explained, allow me to draw your attention to the movie. Movie night, anyone?
 
Raise your hand if you love your freedoms...
Saw this over on Jurgo's blog. It's about a high school project to demonstrate civil liberties, and the resulting visit from the Secret Service.
 
Your Star Wars Post of the Day
Just a little interrogation.
 
Strange Consumerism!
Just a quick round-up of some weird stuff you can buy. First off, the Choke The Annoying Chicken Doll. Too... many... jokes... Next up, the Mr. Suicide Bathtub Plug. Kind of in the same vein as that voodoo knife block I posted about a while back. Next on the list, get this, luxury TP. In a nice formal black, and now a stylish red, too. Boy, I can think of someone who might actually use that. Last but not least, we take some slippers and put some LEDs on them! ... Boy, that's actually not a bad idea.
Update: Ok, to leave this out would be negligence. It's a collection of book slipcovers. If you've got a book you're in the middle of, you can keep it safe by putting it in a slipcover that displays the title, "The Nutritional Benefits of Nosepicking", or "How to Make your Grandmother a Porn Star", or "Do-It-Yourself Liposuction". If only I'd known about this when I was still in school. ALL of my books would've had one of these.

Superhandz
A couple words of advice. First, never play poker with someone who can do this stuff. Second, never show that kind of stuff to the people you play poker with. (Lots more of that kind of thing here.)
 
When the D&D people are making fun of you...
Check out this great ad for D&D. It's specifically targeting online players. So... many... jokes... And yes, I'm going to sit here and pretend that I didn't just buy a handfull of dice, and I'm not going to think right now about how much time I was on WoW last week.
 
Your Star Wars Link of the Day
An MP3 player, straight from Bespin!
 
Puppies and Kittens and a Fish-Eye Lens!
I'm pretty sure I've posted something like this before, but it's just too cute to pass up.

Battle Hamster!
Check out this helpful site on turning you hamster into a fighting machine! Please note, some hamsters are already fighting machines, and need no alteration.
 
One of the FBI's Top Priorities: Fighting Porn
From the Washington Post article, "not the kind exploiting children, but the kind that depicts, and is marketed to, consenting adults. "I guess this means we've won the war on terror," said one exasperated FBI agent." Nice to know my tax dollars are being well spent.

Food
Determined the other day at lunch: beans are not technicaly fruit. Therefore, coffee is not actually fruit juice. Neither is tea, which is in fact a weak vegitable soup. And a few weekends ago we agreed that the Monte Cristo at Bennigan's is in fact a meat donut. If you have the jelly on it, it becomes a meat/jelly donut, not to be confused with a jellied meat donut, which wouldn't be nearly as good.
 
Marc Merlin's Burning Man 2005 Report
If you've never heard of Burning Man... Eh. You're on the Internet right now, look it up. Or you can start with this report from the most recent one. I've got to get out there for this some time. If nothing else, it would give me an excuse to wear my turban.
 
Do you trust the Pentagon?
Do you trust them with your freedom of speech? How about with nucular weapons?
 
Lemmings!
I'm not sure who wrote this, but it's Lemmings written in DHTML! If you never played this, you need to check it out. (Not that any of my readers would be such uncultured heathens as to never have played Lemmings.) It's a classic!
 
Lego Serenity
This is extremely cool. It's a lego version of the Firefly space transport Serenity. If you haven't seen the TV series yet, shame on you.
