“Maybe Mr. T is pretty handy with computers. Had that occurred to you, Mr. Condescending Director?”
Video @ GameVideos.com, via Wired’s Game | Life. Author Susan Arendt describes this as “the single greatest videogame advertisement ever created.” I can only agree.

Umm….
Nebraska State Senator Ernie Chambers filed suit against God Friday, asking a court to order the Almighty and his followers to stop making terrorist threats.
Nebraska: Big with the Wacky.
The suit accuses God of having his chroniclers “disseminate in written form, said admissions, throughout the Earth in order to inspire fear, dread, anxiety, terror and uncertainty, in order to coerce obedience to Defendant’s will.”
[...]
The lawsuit indicates that Chambers attempted to make God appear in order to serve him by saying “Come out, come out, wherever you are,” but the Almighty declined, like many defendants, to make it easy for a plaintiff to serve him with court papers.
WTF?
Chambers filed the suit to make a point that the state constitution allows lawsuits to be filed for any reason, according to WOWT.
O RLY?
The full story’s over at Wired.
Teh Awesome is strong in this one.
Chad Jones at Theater Dogs points us to what is my favorite YouTube mashup of the year:
“If You Were Gay” from Avenue Q
plus
“I Am Not Gay!” from Sen. Larry Craig:

I somehow preordered an extra copy of the brand-new, direct-to-DVD movie Babylon 5 - The Lost Tales.
So… would anyone like to buy the extra copy from me ($15.99) instead of having me return it to Amazon?
We buried my grandma today.
I got the call from my mom on Thursday evening that my grandma, who’d had Alzheimer’s for over 15 years, and who’d been in a full-care home for the last decade, had stopped swallowing (her body had forgotten how) and hadn’t had any fluids in about 48 hours. The end, according to the care workers with whom my mom had spoken, could come in a few days or in a few weeks.
That end came less than 12 hours later.

Get Smart is hitting the big screen next summer.

I don’t recall having heard about this one before now, which is odd given how quite wonderful the casting is:
Awesome.
