I missed the MTV Movie Awards on Saturday, but apparently almost all of the cast members from The Breakfast Club reunited to accept a “Silver Bucket of Excellence Award.” It’s a shame that Emilio Estevez and Judd Nelson couldn’t show up…
Take a look at the recent Worth1000.com Photoshop Contest – Animal Dress-Up 6:
The rules of this game are thus: You are going to put clothes on animals. Any clothes. Any animals (i.e. A camel wearing a bra on it’s humps, or a penguin in a tux) The animal doesn’t need to be dressed up completely…even giving it earrings is good although it obviously will not score high. Do not simply paste an animal’s head onto a human’s body unless you change the exposed parts of the human to match the animal’s parts.
Hilarious…
POOM! is a difficult, but addictive Flash game…
I’ll try to redeem myself after the debacle below by posting a pretty cool video of an orchestra of Star Wars Lego characters performing The Imperial March (Darth Vader’s Theme) (embedded QuickTime video).
I hate to subject any of you to this, but I watched it so you should have to as well. I present to you a video of Celine Dion impersonating Michael Jackson (embedded Windows Media Video) in a performance of “Bad,” presumably from her Las Vegas show. I won’t soon cleanse myself of this experience…
For those of you with TiVos, I found a nice page with some useful Secret TiVo Tips and Tweaks.
AtariAge presents Atari Comic Books:
Back in the heyday of the Atari 2600, several games were shipped with mini-comic books as an added bonus. In total, 10 different comic books were created, most of which were produced by DC Comics.
The site has scanned in all ten comic books for your viewing pleasure. Cool… 
PCWorld’s list of The 100 Best Products of 2005 covers a lot of ground, including computer hardware and software as well as consumer electronics and gadgets.
Make: Blog had a great post about a computer case made entirely of case fans (seen at right):
70 case fans in total, covering over 95% of the case AND THEY ALL WORK! Looking from the front of the case, air flows in through the left side and out the right side. The front an back blow air into the case and air flows from the top of the case down and out the bottom… theoretically anyway.
Now that’s a case mod… 
Before the Interweb became ubiquitous, getting “online” meant dialing into Bulletin Board Systems (BBSes) with modems, and ASCII GUIs and art were cutting edge technology. BBS: The Documentary is:
a mini-series of 8 episodes about the history of the BBS, [and] is now available. Spanning 3 DVDs and totalling five and a half hours, this documentary is actually eight documentaries about different aspects of this important story in the annals of computer history.
I remember playing around on BBSes on my Commodore, and to a lesser extent on my early PCs. Things were a lot simpler then…
Besides more details related to the documentary, the site has a lot of other interesting information, including a subsite called Textfiles.com that is an amazing archive of things you would find on a BBS. There is a lot to see there, so I suggest you check out the Top 100 Textfiles to get a flavor for what’s available. Man, this takes me back…
Update: Jason Scott, author of the documentary, has a great post in which he discusses his decision to release the documentary under a Creative Commons License. His attitude is extremely refreshing, and although I was pretty much set on buying the DVD set, I am definitely going to now. Well done…
Update: Wired Magazine has a nice article on the documentary…
