Amphibious Sports Duo
Rowing.gif
I know literally nothing about sports outside of skiing and rowing. Which means that I'm not exactly the most fun guy at the sports bar. (Unless said sports bar has a karaoke machine with nothing but Kenny Loggins, then I'm the bee's knees.) The thing is, I have an overwhelming need to fit in. This comes from a lack of breast-feeding and an older brother who became an astronaut. All I need are buzzwords. Phrases. Anecdotes. Things to prove to my fellow man that I'm not a fool. And I found the place. Amphibious Sports Duo, gives me the quick rundown and interesting sports trivia from people who actually know what they're talking about.

Monkeys Work In Japanese Restaurant
Monkey News!

Reader Josh was kind enough to send us this story. I've never been so happy.

A while back I prattled on about giving the monkeys more responsibility. One of the examples I cited was the ancient Egyptians using monkey waiters in their diners. I floated the idea of starting a monkey cafe. Staffed by simians. Well, looks like the Japanese are members of the Loyal 77. They listened to my council and implemented it lock, stock and bananas.

Two macaque monkeys named Yatchan and Fukuchan are pitching in at the family restaurant. The little devils "serve customers hot towels and drinks, and are given soya beans as tips."



I am considering legal action against the country of Japan as a whole. They obviously ripped this idea off from me. There must be some kind of legal precedent. Ollie the Humanzee vs. The State of Vermont or something. I'm looking into it.

Thanks again to Josh for sending this in. I owe ya one, pally.

Overlooked Movies

Forget the blockbusters. Forget what the reviewers say. There are tons of movies out there that get overlooked, whether it's due to limited marketing budgets or negative reviews. However, here's a list of movies you should check out or revisit, they're worth a second look.

Want to know who is giving political donations to who? Want to check up and see if your friend made that donation or not? Feel like seeing who Adam Sandler is donating to? What about your creepy neighbor with the NRA stickers on his door? You can find all that out and more here.

James Earl Jones recites the alphabet

Now here's something that either helped kids memorize their ABC's or gave them nightmares for years.

As cool as JEJ is, I'm thinking many kids where asking Mom & Dad to leave the lights on in the days after this aired.

Perhaps not all of Sesame Streets ideas were good. Just ask Richard Pryor.

404 Error

Whoops! We're not sure if it was your fault or ours (probably yours, we're good that way) but you've encountered a FATAL ERROR!!! Or at least, a pretty grumpy one.

Specifically the Latvians who run our server are telling us in a weird accent "Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 6]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtfeed' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580), Comrade!". Ain't life a bitch.

If you want to vent, email our slacker of a webmaster. Otherwise, we'd suggest going back, using search, or clicking around aimlessly on this page like a moron.

Have fun.
