Have you ever wondered where your favorite actors are, or what they are doing when they are in between movies? Perhaps they are shopping around for Oscar-winning scripts, perhaps they are honing their art, or perhaps, they just might be in Japan making ridiculous ads. Japander is a site where you can download a whole bunch of Japanese ads by American celebrities — which are usually very comical (read: embarrassing). From Gabrielle Anwar to ZZ Top, nobody is too high profile to peddle their act in the Land of the Rising Sun. Whether it’s Nicholas Cage’s morbid obsession/addiction to pachinko machines or Arnold Schwarzenegger’s wild-eyed, psychotic promotion of Arinamin V, an energy drink with Nicotine, this site is sure to amuse you for many hours.

Holy crap! I’ve been a Dr. Who fan for many years now and since the (lukewarm) Dr. Who movie they put out in 1996, I’ve been hoping for a comeback for the series. The problem is, that even if the series makes a comeback, it will be a while before it leaves British shores and makes its way to the US. Well, not anymore. Looks like the BBC is created a bunch of Dr. Who episodes in Flash. New episodes are supposed to air every Thursday. This, of course, is dementedly good news… It certainly made my day 
Go see the first episode, the Scream of the Shalka

Once again, I venture forth in the crazy impersonal world of weblogs. Yes, I fully expect people will flock to my page because they want to know the latest crap that’s on my mind. Cerebral gems such as “I was picking my nose and I felt my brain today” or “Waah, some jerk cut me off in the highway” or “The newest filk/retro/punk CD from a band you’ve never heard of that I’ve been following since 1973 is great!” are sure to await your perusal. Let’s not forget the obligatory political statement like “We anarchists should organize!” or such profound phylosophical musings as “I’m an individual, just like everyone else!”
Either way, enjoy…
