I LOL'ed at that, especially because I live in Holland, so I can read the text on there, and I go to that shop sometimes.

The Secret History of Star Wars. From the website:

The Secret History of Star Wars takes a bold new look at one of cinema's most lasting and influential works, examining the scripting and storytelling process of the Star Wars series, and how the films that more than two generations have grown up with were created. Examining early screenplay drafts, production artwork, vintage interviews with cast and crew, and more, Secret History of Star Wars weaves together over 400 different sources to give the first-ever history of all six films, placed in a historical context that is sure to bring a new perspective to readers.

I have a copy, and it is absolutely worth it if you have any interest in Star Wars at all. Publisher website

Digg it!

Apple Introduces Revolutionary New Laptop With No Keyboard

Come to think of it - I guess it won't take long until someone comes out with a driver that turns my iPod into a keyboard...

I must say, I completely fail to see how they call this intuitive.

"Okay, so to type a T, spin the wheel to select 'T' on the virtual keyboard... scroll back, you went past it... okay, stop.
Now just press the button for a list of characters whose names start with T or that otherwise vaguely resemble a T. Scroll over to the capital T. It's the 8th thing on the list, conveniently after the British Pound sign, those dagger footmarks, and a lowercase 'i' with a circumflex accent. Okay, press the button on the capital T. There, you just typed a T. Quick and easy, huh? Now just repeat for every letter."

Well, let's look at this article, written 8 years ago, just before an inauguration:

Bush: 'Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Finally Over'

Looking back, you'd be surprised how true* it was.

*) Well, for a certain value of true anyway.

If you have seen (or have not seen) "Where the hell is Matt?" (see page 41 of this thread)...

Well, here's the sequel:

Matt Harding: Where The Hell Is Matt? an 'Elaborate Hoax'

(Chapter 3 is the most important one, where he tells you how he "pulled it off".)

Why uncork and pour wine yourself when a steampunk contraption can do it?

(Not that I like wine much, but that's just... whoa...)

Even one wrong choice can be your last.

Most of you probably don't know who they are, but they make some pretty funny videos. I just had to single out the one video that is not a comedy.

Teaches you a pretty good lesson. For all you teenagers going through rather tough times right now, don't make bad choices.
