Changing the masthead 2 weeks late was a lousy way to start, though.

Friday Funday LXII

Posted by Thomas J. Brown at 0855 hrs

Friday Funday brings you some fun and interesting links from my travels around the internet during the previous week.

Wow, this Friday Funday really gets back to those good old Friday Funday roots with a complete mish-mash of stuff.

Bravia Advert [del.icio.us]
I have been waiting for Friday Funday to show this to you (if you read Kris's Blog, then you've probably already seen this). Every once in a while, a commercial comes along that actually makes you want to leap out of your chair and purchase the product. This is one of those commercials. The sheer beauty if this commercial defies description. It is at once turbulent and tranquil. It celebrates life and colour and manages to speak to one hundred percent of its audience. It captures your attention and, more importantly, your imagination. This is, quite possibly, the greatest commercial ever.

700 Hobo Names [del.icio.us]
Read by the author with musical accompaniment by Jonathan Coulton. Also be sure to take a look at the 700 Hoboes Flickr group.

Defend Your Castle [del.icio.us]
I said it when we played Warcraft (that's right, the original Warcraft) and I'll say it again: "archers."

The Brights' Net [del.icio.us]
Are you a bright? Visit this website and find out if you can join the ranks of the intellectuals, or just stand outside and peer in through the windows.

Baby Mama Drama [del.icio.us]
You know how hip-hop videos always have scantily clad women? Those video videos have nothing on this one. If MTV starting airing more videos like this one, I think I'd have to get cable.

Thanks for that awesome comment from the other day. I noticed a typo in your entry: "Those video" should be "those videos." Not that I never make typos myself, of course!

As I said at work on Friday, we have spell checkers, now we need dumbass checkers. Perhaps that I wouldn't have made the mistake. Thanks for pointing it out!
