Favorite Movie Scene #7 - It Might Get Loud

My sister-in-law's husband Mark showed me this documentary a while back.  It's called It Might Get Loud.  It features the guitarists from The White Stripes (obviously), Led Zeppelin and U2.  They get together and jam and talk about their lives and their music.  It's a decent doc.

The Future of Digg.com

I read this very interesting article on mashable.com today about this new, controversial Digg.com version 4.  I am a huge fan of Digg.com and I've had some issues with this new version.  I didn't really know the whole story behind it, until I read this article by Ben Parr at Mashable.com.

If you like Digg.com, or even know what it is, then check out this article.  Click here for the article.

How Much Does Tina Fey Make?

Find out right here. It might surprise you.

http://www.portfolio.com/interactive-features/2008/09/Tina-Fey-By-the-Numbers?TID=st092007ab

So let's say after this next season of 30 Rock (at least $1.5 mil), she stars in at least one movie in 2009 (at least $10 mil - This Side of the Truth) and writes at least one movie in 2009 (average of $15 mil - Curly Oxide and Vic Thrill). And then let's say she keeps this American Express deal and brings a low-balling $1 mil again. That means, after low-balling this estimate, she would rake in $27.5 mil in 2009.

I'm ok with that. Go Tina Fey!

Support Interesting Art!

I found this short film while surfing on StumbleUpon. I thought it was pretty cool. It's very artsy and doesn't really have a point, but I thought the style of the video was pretty unique. I wonder how he did it.

Want to Play a Weird Game?

The Polyphonic Spree has this bizarre game online for anyone to attempt. I want to tell you how to play it, but the majority in my brain says no. So you must figure it out on your own.

Tell me if you can figure it out. I had to have Danna help me.

Men on a Mission

A 2008 calendar was created last year called, "Men on a Mission." It features 12 return missionaries in their normal missionary attire without the shirt or badge. It also gives each of the 12 a short introduction and blurb on their beliefs as a member. Pretty sad if you ask me. The creator said he wanted to break free of the stereotypes of the LDS religion and let people see the "other side" of everyday members of the church. The church, after much deliberation, has decided to excommunicate him from the church. He met with 12 elders yesterday and will receive the official paperwork within the next 2 weeks.

Colorful Cauliflower May Be Healthier For You

"The "rainbow cauliflowers" are said to taste the same as the normal varieties, but add a splash of colour to the dinner table.

Some scientists have even claimed that they are healthier for you." (Link or link)

Weird huh? This will definitely help those that bridge the food-to-art gap. But where is the line for this genetically-altered food?
