comfort food for the brain

It is nice to find just the right stupid entertainment when one has no energy, is full of phlegm and feverish.

May I present Eddie Izzard routines performed with Legos:

James Bond

Cake or Death

Death Star Canteen

More here.

tempting stocking stuffer

You just have to love DealExtreme.  It was from them that I bought a screen cover for my camera that was only a $1.70 with free shipping, and then to my surprised came from Tawain.

[profile] defectiveyeti did his annual Holiday Survival Guide for Slackers and shared this:  Braised Pork Cell Phone Charm.  For a mere $1.90!  So tempting.

librarian secrets revealed

Secret librarian handshake revealed!
By Brad Barker
November 12, 2007

Q. Hey Library Man: I always seem to find very attractive librarians working the reference desk, but I'm intimidated by how smart they are. Do you know any good librarian pickup lines I could "borrow"? -- Bo

A. Dear "Bo" (if that's your real name): The librarian mystique -- prim, proper and brainy by day, but transforming into wildcats after sunset -- can be intimidating. But don't be too bashful. Remember, Laura Bush was a librarian, and she settled for a smarmy frat boy who never read anything thicker than a Cliff's Notes pamphlet. His opening line was probably "Are you with me or against me?" or "If it's a date you want, bring it on."


I love the librarian mystique.  I don't care that lots of library folks complain about the stereotype.  It is fun material to work with.

adorable Metropolitan

My carpool buddy and I recently saw the cutest car in traffic. It looked like a classic old 50s boat of a car with fins and sidepanels and all...but tiny!  She later emailed me to inform that it was a Metropolitan.  So cute

I kinda want one.

early morning funny

Woke up at 5 and couldn't fall back asleep (ok, so brushing one's teeth in the middle of the night is not a bad habit if one fell asleep without doing so. but flossing in the middle of the night may be a bit much).

Highly amused by this.

Oh...and this, too.

Thanks to [personal profile] theda for reminding me about one of my all time favorite Sesame Street skits. What amazes me now is how long it is, and slow paced, compared to the television of today.  I still enjoy imitating these guys, and have vivid memories of doing this with college friends, too.  That and singing like the friendly creatures from the Dark Crystal ;)
