Sometimes I wonder what these people are taking and whether it’s a good or bad trip. Maybe I don’t want to know.

It’s “International Talk Like William Shatner Day!”

Maurice LaMarche is one of my favorite voice actors. And in honor of William Shatner’s birthday, he offers a tutorial on how to talk like The Shat.

Hang around for the end, when he does his Orson Welles.

Here’s mashup movie trailer that’s just made of win. Watch and enjoy.

Sarah Palin Pardons a Turkey

Julie — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 19:06:50 +0000

So the chief executive of a state pardons a turkey. So far, so good. So, poor Tom was to filthy for her to touch? Hey, I can get behind that.

The interview that follows is too surreal to be believed. And please heed their warning: If you’re squeamish or you have kids in the room, or if you really don’t want to know THAT much detail about what might happen to Tom if he hadn’t been pardoned, don’t watch further. The first part is family-friendly, and they blurred the worst bits in the second part.

A You Tube Monty Python Channel.

They only want one thing in return – buy their stuff. I can do that, provided I can find more stuff to buy. We own enough Python goodies to fill a whole cart full of dead people. Provided you take out the dead, first.

But seriously, they’ve uploaded many high-quality videos. So if you need a reminder to Always Look On the Bright Side of Life, it’s just a bookmark away.

Periodic Table of Videos

The University of Nottingham has put together videos about every element in the periodic table. It’s good, geeky, educational fun.

Here’s their latest, all about candles:

But it gets better. I discovered that this is part of a larger part of a larger scientific video initiative called, appropriately enough, Test Tube.

Enjoy the geeky goodness.

Mac Virus?

Or course, Macs don’t get viruses…

No. Never. Except, perhaps, on Halloween.

William Shatner on Rocket Man

Julie — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 19:17:32 +0000

Whenever I need a laugh I go check out William Shatner’s version of Elton John’s “Rocket Man.” It was performed at the Science Fiction Awards back in 1978, a decade or so after his infamous rendition of “Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds.” In fact, here’s a hilarious animation set to that song. Beverages away from the keyboards, please.

Now, he reflects on that video thirty years later:
