If you were wondering what a LEGO ROCK BAND video game would look like, it could look something like this:
Golden Shower was a Brazilian band that hit the net in the early 2000’s, and over the next few years spent some time creating interesting mashups of video, electronica, and graphics.
In 2002, Golden Shower released the song and video entitled TOTAL CONTROL, and began to win even more awards and recognition for their work. The video is a tribute to the classic Tyco TCR race sets from the late 70’s-early 80’s.
Those of you who remember those Tyco TCR race car sets should have fond memories of the excitement an awesome TCR layout could be. And it was always your friends who had the cool track setups, wasn’t it?

I’ve been watching THE BEST DAMN POKER SHOW on Fox Sports Net.
It’s a tournament-based series, with two teams of (mostly) amateur poker players competing against each other and coached by poker pros Annie Duke and Phil Hellmuth. For whatever reason, I can’t watch most poker programs on TV, but shows like this one or Bravo’s prematurely cancelled CELEBRITY POKER SHOWDOWN that offer decent, approachable advice for the casual player (along with a little bit of personality and humor) are more entertainly watchable for me versus the more serious World Poker Tour or High Stakes Poker shows.
Besides, who wouldn’t want to get free poker advice from Annie Duke, Phil Hellmuth, or Phil Gordon (an early commentator on CPS)? As such, I turn you to one small piece of advice learned from season 2, episode 5, of The Best Damn Poker Show.
Today is a day for a good laugh.

If you do not watch Jon Stewart on The Daily Show on a regular basis, you will miss out on the occasional must-see gem of an interview.
It’s not often that you will find this type of good, informative, well-researched, engaging interview on what is, in essence, a comedy program. But Jon’s interview with CNBC’s Jim Cramer is absolutely fantastic.
It is said that more college-age kids and young adults get their new and information from The Daily Show than from traditional media outlets. With interviews like this, I can certainly see why.
Well done, Jon. Keep up the good work.

It’s nothing new to report that Disney animators (and animators in general) reuse pieces of animation in their various works. Heck, computer programmers do the same thing by reusing code libraries so they don’t have to build the same thing from scratch every time.
Have you even looked at a Garfield or Cathy panel lately? Ack! It’s almost the same thing every day.
Note that this is a different issue from the common “Disney stole my work” lawsuits that crop up every so often.
