Ok Go: This Too Shall Pass

March 4th, 2010

In case you haven’t seen this amazing video yet, feast your eyes on Ok Go’s latest video for their song “This Too Shall Pass”.  Check ‘em out as they interact with an amazingly complex Rube Goldberg machine.

This from a band who initially gained widespread attention by dancing on treadmills.  The machine in this video took over six weeks to construct, and over 60 takes over a period of two days to wind up with this single-shot music video.  You have to admire the talent and patience it took to create this.

I initially became aware of Ok Go when they toured with They Might Be Giants in support of their first (self-titled) album.  It’s great to see a band stay true to their roots and in touch with their fan base.

Star Wars: Deleted Scene

It’s a shame this scene was cut from the original film.  Having a love interest for Vader would have been…interesting.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to the toilet.

Happy Friday!

Computer Bug

Proof that a praying mantis can discern what’s on a computer screen.  Very interesting…

I apologize for such a short post. I’m still trying to catch up on some sleep, but have thus far been unsuccessful. It seems I’ve pulled the short straw and managed to secure the 3am feeding time :neutral:

Caution: Low Bridge

February 3rd, 2010

I’d like to know what his excuse was…

I would pay good money to know what that pedestrian on the far left side of the bridge was thinking.  It’s obvious that he noticed the truck with its raised bed fast approaching.  He paused, long enough to root himself to the ground in fear, before the earth beneath him fell away.  Frightening…
