Why is it that Ann Coulter...


...has to put herself on the cover of her books? I caught an interview with Ann Coulter (whom I dont like) on the early show this morning while getting ready for work. I wanted to post it here but the clip from CBS.com is being a bit finicky...
Here is the link:

Come for the Thor movie news...


...stay for the Terence Stamp charm. All kidding aside, doesnt Terence Stamp come off as the most likeable guy in this clip? They are obviously here to talk about Valkyrie, but Stamp just has fun with it... video after the jump.

ENDINGS


My old college professor, Chris Hansen (no relation to dateline NBC's "To Catch a Predator" host), is deep in post for his new feature entitled Endings. A brief synopsis followed by a clip after the jump...

"Emmy Ferguson is a 10-year old who learns that, after a long bout with leukemia, today is probably her last day on earth. Chris Ryan is a 35 year old drug addict who is determined to make this his last day. And Adonna Frost, suffering from advanced breast cancer, has made a similar decision about the end of her life.
But as Emmy embarks on a strange journey, the lives of these three strangers are changed forever."

A scene from ENDINGS from Chris Hansen on Vimeo.

Keep up the good work Chris.

I think I'm getting whatever my bros had...


cause I feel like poo. On the positive side I get to not feel bad about not doing anything but wasting time on the interwebs. I had found this pic a long time ago, but apparently he once said "Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.” I like it. Happy shitty Monday everybody. Oh, also, its raining and effing cold here in Dallas.

DayQuil v Tylenol Nighttime

Im sick as a dog. Dayquil aint got shit on Tylenol Nighttime. Definitely dont take it if you havent scheduled at least 9 hours for sleeping. I cant think straight right now. Instead of droning on like a zombie Ill just shut up. Watch this cute clip from the new Studio Ghibli feature while I take a nap under my desk...

Bicycling Laws


Ever wonder what truly is bike law? Here are a few links regarding bike laws in Texas. One thing that I couldn't find an official answer on is whether it is illegal to ride with headphones. Of course it is without question that it is definitely unsafe. But sometimes you just want to jam while riding. Classes start tomorrow. Back to the grind. Enjoy your break while you still got it, that is of course if you aren't back to work already.

Shower in Formaldehyde? CHECK!

Now, most of you might already know this, but I'm a huge animation buff... well, maybe "decently-sized" is a better description. The top tier of my dvd/bluray shelf is dedicated entirely to animation, though, if that's any indication. So, I was pleasantly amused by the latest "find" by a friend of mine in the graduate film production program who also happens to be very much into animation (and motion graphics, visualFX, etc.)...


BRILLIANT!  The music, intensity, the cat's mannerisms...  By the way, "Kotatsu" is Japanese for heater (built into the table along with a built-in comforter/blanket), and "Neko" is cat...  Kotatsuneko!

Sweet Bike Accessories

What to do when you have a small apartment and lots of bikes? Stick it on the wall. Don't have a lot of wall space? Use one of these. Actually... don't. They are sweet, but a little bit more than just expensive. Now, I don't know what language the site is I found these toe clips on, but if it is yen they are some of the best priced clips and straps I have found in a long time.
