First Live Giant Squid Captured!!!
For a long time, people thought giant squids might have been a myth... Then, fairly recently, they started to find some dead ones, up to 60 feet long... Now, the Japanese have finally captured a live one (and there's video too)... Very cool stuff...

Guitar Hero Rulez!!!
I've been playing Guitar Hero for a couple years now. Some of you may not know, but it is an amazing video game where the controller is a guitar and you play along with hit songs from the past. It definitely seemed dorky at first, but it has finally caught on mainstream. This is the kind of game that will really take gaming to the next level. It's accessible and fun and there's no limit to where it can go. Country version? Acoustic version? It's awesome!

People Still Living in Star Wars Sets...
The first Star Wars was shot partly in Tunisia (the parts on Luke's home planet of Tatooine)... As with many movies, they didnt want to pay to dismantle the sets, so they just left them there... And now, 30 years later, people are still living in them... So it actually ended up being pretty cool...

I went to high school with Britney Spears new boyfriend!!!
I don't know if you heard, but Britney's got a new boyfriend (she did wait an entire 2 weeks)... The crazy thing is... I went to high school with him!!! And here's the thing: He was a total dork!!! If I can get enough people to come visit this posting and show me some interest (leave comments, Digg me, etc), I'll pull out my old high school yearbooks and scan some pix... If not, no biggie...

Gap hired Spike Jonze to do a commercial, but never decided to air it... Here it is and it's pretty awesome...
Mortified
A guy named Will Nolan did a public reading of his diary from when he was a little kid being bullied, which was then animated... Really hilarious and interesting view into one guy's childhood...
South Park Creators - Download Our Shows...
I definitely enjoy South Park, though I have to admit I haven't watched it for the last couple years... But the creators were interviewed recently and came out in favor of people downloading their shows... I have to applaud that move... I think people who really believe in what they're making want as many people as possible to see it... And I really don't believe it decreases the number of people who pay for their shows... More networks should make their shows available for download... Toss in commercials, I really don't mind...

Honda Civic Tron Commercial
Ooh, I love the movie Tron... Old underrated Disney movie about a guy who gets sucked into a computer and has to win competitions to survive... And the first movie to really use computer animation... Plus, the video game still rules... So Honda did a commercial for the Civic that is modeled after Tron... Take a look...

Saturday Morning... Those Were The Days...
So I was reading Plaid Stallions today (plaidstallions.blogspot.com), which is a retro blog I read on a fairly regular basis... He scans catalogs for clothes and toys from the 70s, and he had a scan of the Saturday morning TV schedule from 1974... And a great commentary on what Saturday morning used to be like and how our kids will never understand what Saturday morning meant to us... I love Tivo and Cable as much as anyone, but inventions like Tivo will mean kids will never understand what it meant to wait all week for your show...

Godzilla Building in Japan?
This is awesome... Someone has come up with a plan for a Godzilla-shaped building in Tokyo... If they actually built this, it would be the most amazing thing ever (though I'm sure they won't)... Noone does anything this cool for real...
