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…
