"In 2003, scientists at Paignton Zoo and the University of Plymouth, in Devon in England reported that they had left a computer keyboard in the enclosure of six Sulawesi Crested Macaques for a month; not only did the monkeys produce nothing but five pages consisting largely of the letter S, they started by attacking the keyboard with a stone, and continued by urinating and defecating on it." - Wikipedia.com, Infinite Monkey Theorem

I Speaks the Tongue of the Devil!

Oh. The Wonders of the IntraWeb.

The Good - The Canadian Red Bull FlugTag: Around the world, Red Bull, makers of that poor-tasting energy drink, has held an annual competition that has allowed participants to look to their inner Da Vinci.

The task: Build your own flying machine, with extra points for creativity and style.

The Participants: Pretty much any random Joe that can fill out an application.

The Result: Comedy, pure and simple.

Well, the competition is finally coming to Canada. The first Canadian FlugTag will be taking place in
Vancouver, on August 19. Registration is free. It's about creating something. It's about competition. It's about dressing up like a chicken and throwing a Styrofoam Cadillac with wings in to the water while thousands of people cheer.

It's about making a difference.

The Bad
- Celebrity Gawker: It's 11:00 pm. Do you know where Sting is? Do you really give a shit? Well, for the three of you who do, the Celebrity Gawker site is for you. Keep tabs on your favourite manufactured Hollywood personality. Anthony Hopkins eats dinner!Jodie Foster does laundry! Courtney Love still sort of resembles a corpse.

They're just like us...except not! I have to envy the people who have done everything they want to with their lives, and have the time to concern themselves intimately with that of others.

The Fuckin' Awesome - Mp3 Pez Dispenser: It's a Pez Dispenser. And it plays Mp3s. Mp3 Pez Dispenser.

I'm not even to write about this. If you don't understand how intrinsically rad this is, you aren't worth the effort.


String,
Lilwall

Gawker? You have a beef with Gawker, the mecca of celebrity happenin's in NYC.

Well, I guess you won't appreciate the splendor that is the west coast version of Gawker—Defamer. It is truly the gossip rag that LA deserves.

I think that Lilwall was talking specifically about Gawker's new feature, which is essentially a version of google maps with celebrity locations factored in because, well, it's creepy.

Also, no RSS feed makes Dan sad. Turn it on bitches!

In addition, I am somewhat shocked to see an entry of Vincent D'Onofrino whereabouts in that.

The jedi mind trick jokes should write itself.

Actually, Iris, Vincent D'Onofrino was my first pick to make a joke about. But then I realized that everyone knows where D'Onofrino is at any given time: either outsmarting every criminal in New York, or reading up on ancient Mongolian pottery techniques so he can pull a little tidbit out to catch a killer in their own web of lies.
