I'll be adding to this all day.

Instead of Upgrading the Blog to Wordpress 2.5 I'm Posting Chinese MC Hammer

The weirdest thing about it is that it's Hammer (yes even weirder than the fact that his mom is knitting in the background.) I'm not even sure this guy was alive when Hammer was doing his thing.

And yeah, Wordpress is upgraded to 2.5. As I mentioned on twitter, it might take five minutes (and the core upgrade will.) The problem is, the "extra" stuff might break and cause me nothing but problems for hours or even days on end. I'm especially curious about the Amazon S3 plugin for WordPress since I post so many images to the site and want to continue to host them @ Amazon S3. Since so much of the admin interface is changed, I fear that will just break.

New to me- Dvinsk Clan-Le Parkour

I'm crazy late on this, but William Gibson posted it just today, so I can't feel too bad about posting it here. If it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me :)

Anyway, here's an insanely good Latvian Le Parkour video

"I Am The Very Model of a Psychopharmacologist"

This is a uniquely cool, creative and extremely well written youtube video. It may not be the whiz-bang equal of "I Can't Believe You've Done This," but it certainly beats that recent classic in pure brain power. If the the average Youtube video was a 4 on a 1 to 10 scale of intelligence, this video is a 97…

Stephen M Stahl, MD, PhD, of Neurosciences Education Institute singing in prose lyrical about psychopharmacology. Music by Gilbert & Sullivan. Lyrics by who is obviously ADHD.

I can't believe you've done this.

The best 11 seconds currently on youtube?

I call this post: "related youtube videos posted without explanation."

Happy friday.

Hard to believe it's 8 years old: "No Sex In The Champagne Room"

This came up at work (thanks to me of course), so I figured I'd check youtube to see if it was available. It is. So I'm sharing it with you.

yes!

"That's all I can stand, I can't stands no more"

I'm about to do some Popeye and Spinach. The big iron fueled freak-out. When I pop open that can, the nutrients will jack me up to superhuman proportions.

Metaphorically, of course.

That obscure remark aside, I really enjoyed this Popeye cartoon back in the day, maybe you will too:

Not news to you maybe, but Jason Schwarztman + Mark Gonzales = cool

This video for Coconut Records (Jason Schwarztman) "West Coast" featuring the inimitable Mark Gonzales.

More on the background can be found here*: PAPERMAG: WORD UP!: Jason Schwartzman Mashes Mark Gonzales

*and probably elsewhere on the net, I'm too busy to fully research today.

[edited to add:] The album is on emusic. Saved for later.
