Remember those booths at the fair where you pour sand in a jar to make your own little art piece? This is Sand is a website where you can do the same thing without all the mess! And if you mess up, you can start over again! There is even a gallery where you can submit your piece and look at others!

DO NOT play with this if you have work to do! It took me an hour just to post this because I had to make my own! Look!!!

This is Sand

Found this little gadget today. I watched it three times and the only explanation I could com up with is ... MAGIC!!!

I have learned through my extensive research (i.e. reading the comments on a reddit thread) that Ouroborus means a snake eating it's own tail.

What do you do when you get to the airport and find out that your flight, the last on of the day, has been canceled? You make the most of it!

And a card trick!

This is James Galea, a comedian/magician at The 2009 Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala.

I'm still having trouble with the IQ test.

It's that time again... The Winter Olympics are here!!! What better way to celebrate than with your favorite booze?

First, lay in a stock of your favorite beverage.

Then, turn on NBC and observe the following rules:

1. Take one drink every time a NBC announcer invites you to "share a moment with the world."

2. Take one drink every time snowboarding highlights are backed up by rock-and-roll guitar/heavy metal headbanger music.

3. Take one drink every time a female athlete is described as "America's _____ing sweetheart." Take an extra drink if the athlete in question is "American's curling sweetheart."

4. Clap your hands and take one drink every time reference is made to "the revolutionary new clap skate" being used in speed skating.

5. Take one drink every time figure skating commentator Scott Hamilton shouts that a skater "NAILED!!" a jump.

6. Take one drink every time you hear a hockey announcer shout, "He shoots...he scores!" Take two drinks if you're watching women's hockey and you hear, "She shoots...she scores!"

7. Take one drink every time NBC promises to get "up close and personal" with an athlete.

8. Take one drink every time a skater is presented with a bouquet of flowers.

9. Take one drink every time America's quest for its first medal in luge is mentioned. Take an extra drink if America actually happens to win a medal in luge.

10. Take one drink and sigh, "That's good, mon" every time reference is made to the Jamaican bobsled team.

11. Take one drink every time the REAL Olympic theme is heard.

"I like descriptions that tell you exactly what the video is about: this is a song about stores that tell you exactly what they are."

I got a pedicure once at a place called "Fancy Nails"...

Now you all should know by now that I love stop motion videos. Well, I found one that, I think, may be the most original I've seen in a while. This is what happens when you give 2 guys 200+ t-shirts and a video camera.

By the way, that catchy music was done by MysteryGuitarMan, who I've featured here before.

What if Lord of the Rings was written by someone other than J. R. R. Tolkien? Would it still be as good?

Dr. Seuss

"Gandalf, Gandalf! Take the ring!
I am too small to carry this thing!"

"I can not, will not hold the One.
You have a slim chance, but I have none.
I will not take it on a boat,
I will not take it across a moat.
I cannot take it under Moria,
that's one thing I can't do for ya.
I would not bring it into Mordor,
I would not make it to the border."

I wanted to say something witty here, but I think the video speaks volumes on it's own, so...

Kyle Franklin is not your everyday comedian. He likes to use props in his act. REALLY BIG PROPS!!!

I'd love to see his act in person, but I have the feeling that advertising his appearance would sort of ruin the gag...

Ok. You know how some things get lost in translation? Like how we here in America just don't "get" Japanese game shows? Well, it works both ways. Apparently, FOX is making a version of their hit show "Glee" to air in Japan. I just don't get it...

Microsoft has gone to great lengths to entice you into buying the newest version of Microsoft Office in 2010. They almost won me over, but the thought of learning a new Word program is just too much for me to handle!
