Jizz in my pants

Ok, so the guys from SNL made this and it already has 15 million views. But me, I watch this...



Granted it's not the most amazing video ever. But what makes it so cool is that it is totally real. It's not an artists rendering or imagined by mathematicians. Science and telescopes gathered the data from a dying star 330 years ago. I mean, this is the first time we are able to see one of the biggest explosions we as humans can comprehend. Oh crap, yea, I jizzed in my pants.

Happy New Year

Here's to another year of life's epic ups and downs. Kinda like this, only not as scary...

Secret City!

Out of nowhere, I remembered coming home from school as a kid and watching Secret City on PBS. It was one of my favorite shows. I would sit in front of the little TV in my living room with a pad and pencil trying desperately to keep up with Commander Mark. Today I found a treasure trove of clips (and a classic trip down memory lane) thanks to YouTube member culturaldetritusnyc.



I was embroiled in a contentious conversation last night about brilliant movies and to me, there is no question that this was brilliant TV. Enjoy. Head to YouTube for more episodes and a closer look at the secret city mural. Seems they are still trying to keep the show alive and have started a website supporting the Draw Squad. Ah, memories.
