How the frak did the Sci Fi Channel announce a spinoff prequel series to Battlestar Galactica a month ago without me finding out about it until today?

There’s a lot I don’t mind about the Star Wars Special Edition movies, but some of the changes bugged the hell out me. Everybody knows that Han shot first, not Greedo. What kind of crappy-ass bounty hunter is Greedo anyway that he can’t hit Han from three feet away? Come on, people.

Some of the best ultra-low-budget stop-animation on Tee-Vee is now available in DVD form. That’s right, Robot Chicken is on DVD!
(By the way, when I did a search on Amazon.com for the link to the DVDs, the results didn’t list them. For some reason, I had typed in “Robert Chicken”.)

If I say “Superman”, you’ll think “crap tonight”.

Of course, it wouldn’t be from our country because we’re too busy being prudish and all.
And now, we return to our regular commercials of animated bears who really really really enjoy shitting in the woods.
NOTE: It seems WordPress 2.0 has some sort of weird bug that inserts a stray paragraph tag into the Quicktime code, […]

It’s good to know that they know they have problems. And they score high points for doing a great job of poking fun at themselves.
From The iPod Observer:
Microsoft spokesman Tom Pilla on Tuesday confirmed with iPod Observer that his company initiated the creation of the iPod packaging parody video that was first reported last month. […]

One of the wisest sages of our time (no, not Yoda) offers struggling artists (and ar-teests, I suppose) free money! He’s just giving it away in the form of ideas of what to paint so you can stop being a struggling artist. And it’s all free!
