I came across this video at Reason.tv and thought it aptly showed how the political process has gotten BETTER in American and NOT worse.  Each election cycle you hear many people say that this is the worst ever, and then the next cycle it’s the worst ever.  Believe me…it’s not.  I’ve worked in it.  I have done these ads.  I have done opposition research.  I’ve been that guy that you all look at your TV and say, who comes up with this stuff.  Yea that was me.  It’s never as bad as people think.  Unless it is. Thought this video would help put some of the attack ads that we just finished watching into perspective.  Enjoy.

This just got posted at XKCD.com and it made my night.  Gotta love a good Higgs Boson Particle Joke.  Yea I’m a Quantum Physics Nerd.  I was going to do a  pun here but I couldn’t settle on one.  Higgs Christ?  Jesus Boson?  In the beginning there was…one particle that gave mass to all other particles?  Sermon on the CERN? The Last Splitter?   I got nothin.  Dang it!  Either way this is still funny.

Stewie Griffin makes a guest appearance on Letterman to read the Top 10.  Now I think all the late night guys are terrible.  They all use formulaic jokes that are all terrible.  “So did you hear about X…yea yea…insert current passe celebrity to make fun of… punchline…go to drums or guitar.  The only reason I’m posting this is because Seth McFarland takes his formulaic shows (Goofy Dad, Good Looking Wife, awkward son, daughter who is a little weird, and talking animal) that are actually funny, to a different level and when they are joined with Letterman they gives signs of hope to Letterman.     Enjoy.

I came across this video and was amazed.  I saw it about a month ago and was pretty impressed initially but I recently came across it again from a friend and was even more impressed the second time.  I did a quick search for any news on it and found out some pretty cool things.  First it was made for a grand total of $300.  Second this video has earned the directors a $30,000,000 contact.  Sam Rami, the director of the Spider Man movies, has picked up this option through his production company.  Congrats to them.
