Friday, March 17, 2006 It's Links from Others Day! Thanks, everyone! From Holly: Aphorisms Galore! From Bunny, the sounds of Generation X's youth: arcade video games, captured on a tape recorder and digitized for your enjoyment. The kids yelling in excitement throughout is a nice touch. From the Sparkle Queen: absinthe! The New Yorker's article is not officially online yet, but Oxygenee has a scanned PDF. From the Graveworm: a gnostic weblog. Yes! From Tracy, our chemist operative out in the field: PartStore, a great source for replacing some things and creating others; freakily amazingly fantastic 3-D sidewalk drawings; and the "actor's journey" site of Michael Bailey Smith, also known as Belthazor on Charmed. (Tracy told me that. My Charmed knowledge is awfully limited). Thanks again, everyone, and happy St. Patrick's Day! Have a spiffy weekend. See you Monday. Jinnet @ 3/17/2006 : comments: 0 Thursday, March 16, 2006 Okay, yesterday got away from me, but now we're back! For book lovers: Neglected Books helps you find the best overlooked or underrated books in several categories. This is a very cool idea. Also, check out Pierre Ouvard's bookbinding art, which takes book coverings to an entirely new (often three-dimensional) level. For the sports people: in honor of the NCAA tournament which begins today, the College Basketball Archive provides any article you'd ever want. Well, probably, anyway. For the Irish: fun St. Patrick's Day facts! Massachusetts has the highest population with Irish ancestry. My mother's family is from Massachusetts, and yes, it's very Irish. For the medical researchers: browse through this list of presidential diseases, and be amazed at the various ailments. Lincoln was cross-eyed? Jefferson had Asperger Syndrome? Really? Also, Princeton sponsors a site where you can search for emergency contraception providers by zip code or city. (There are no providers in my zip code. Yikes.) For the Appalachians, or those interested in Appalachian culture: the Appalachian Regional Commission has an online resource center that's full of great information. Tomorrow: links from others! Jinnet @ 3/16/2006 : comments: 0 Wednesday, March 15, 2006 The happiest of birthdays to Dr. Matt the Commenter! (More soon. My schedule's all skewed today.) Jinnet @ 3/15/2006 : comments: 1 Tuesday, March 14, 2006 Today, it's all about good clean geeky fun. Muppets! Check out the behind-the-scenes footage of Kermit's latest Ford ad, and see other Muppets' screen tests for Yoda. Imagining Pepe as Yoda is especially funny. Candy! Ever wonder how Lemonheads are made? Wonder no more! Superheroes! If you're talented, you can redesign the costume for a superhero. God knows someo of them definitely need some updating. Science and industry! The pins at Lapel Pin Planet are fantastic. I found the brain one originally, but the science section also features atomic symbols, skulls, dinosaurs and more...and then there are all the other categories as well. If you're not terribly concerned about accuracy, however, check out the Talus watch, which tells you it's "about three o'clock" or "quarter of four" or whatever. Hee. Jinnet @ 3/14/2006 : comments: 1 Monday, March 13, 2006 Today is pretty sad and dreary all round, so let's try to perk it up a bit. First off: Pac-Man is alive and well and living in a field somewhere. Isn't that good to know? In the spirit of making lemonade out of lemons, the DDD Project (Detroit, Demolition, Disneyland) is painting abandoned buildings a bright fluorescent orange. Not only does it get people's attention, it also looks kind of cool. George Clooney tells liberals to stand up and be proud. It's always a relief to see that there are still liberals around there here parts. (My notes for this link just say "yay George.") Nick Cave is getting recognition for his new movie and all-around Renaissance-man oeuvre, while Thomas Kinkade is getting sued and allegedly acting like a bitter, drunken lout. Ah, sometimes there's justice in the art world! Meet Cleaver Theatre has joined the world of Flickr. Check out the photos we have up so far, and tune back in after we get back from Cinema Wasteland in a few weeks. And if none of that has cheered you up and you're feeling as if the world is a hellish dark place of Boschian proportions...well then, make your own Bosch painting. (The site is in Dutch, but is easy to figure out; drag & drop various tortured characters onto a canvas. Fun for all!) Jinnet @ 3/13/2006 : comments: 3
