Indian 'Thriller' with English 'Lyrics' →

An already silly music video based on Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' is made more silly with subtitles that make it look like the singer is saying totally ridiculous things in English, instead of whatever was said in Urdu.

Miley Cyrus Wants to Do More TV →

Here’s a big surprise: teen superstar Miley Cyrus would like to spend even more time in front of the cameras. The Disney sensation was promoting her work in Bolt when she stopped to chat with E! News about her own career desires. “I would want to do a reality show like ‘The Real World’ because I think that’s crazy,” she told reporters. “Anyone who would do that has some serious guts.” Or issues ...

Our 'Third Senator' Loses Re-Election →

Pop that really nice bottle of champagne you've been saving folks, because the Seattle P-I is reporting that Ted Stevens, the longest serving Republican in Senate history, has lost his re-election bid. To add injury to insult, his ouster came on his 85th birthday. Just think of it as a birthday present for the rest of us, Ted. ...

Can Jesus Scale? Mars Hill Sells Social Network →

Zondervan, "a world leader in Christian communications," says it's just bought Mars Hill's social-networking, community-building software The City (we prefer "Christbook"), which was the brainchild of ex-Amazonian Zack Hubert. Now Zondervan will roll the software out to online churched-up types all over, hoping to recreate the Mars Hill experience: "Mars Hill launched The City earlier this year to create a dynamic, engaging interactive online community for its more than 7,000 members. Within two months of ...

Michael Dunmire is a doofus →

So… when are folks going to start heaping the ridicule on Michael Dunmire that he so richly deserves? In 2008, Dunmire personally contributed $285,000 to I-985, plus another $100,000 to Tim Eyman’s personal compensation fund, and in return bought himself an initiative that lost by a better than 60-40 margin, going down to defeat in all 39 counties.  And that’s on top of the $530,000 he paid Eyman in 2007. Any idiot could get an initiative onto ...

Happy Blogsgiving, Everybody! →

Big ups to everyone who made it out to celebrate Blogsgiving last night. Cupcakes were devoured, pumpkin drinks were guzzled, hand turkeys were drawn, and normally antisocial bloggers actually mingled with one another (thanks to the aforementioned pumpkin drinks). With the help of you fine people, we raised nearly $400 for Northwest Harvest, along with a bushel and a peck of non-perishable food items. Many thanks to Grey Gallery for hosting, as well ...

35MPH Electric Car Fits Bainbridge Pace of Life Perfectly →

Sometimes we stop to think--for instance while waiting to hear more about the non-credible bomb-threat that's halted the Bremerton ferry run this afternoon--about Bainbridge Island. Which is always the way. Bremerton forever gets the short end of the stick. So in contrast to hours of snarled ferry traffic, the news out of Bainbridge has to do with this electric car, the ECH, that Bob Fraik has built. It tops out, for now, at 35 mph, and ...

Janette Fishell and the Great Organ at Benaroya Hall →

Monday night was a treat at Benaroya Hall, dedicated fully to the demonstration of the great Watjen Concert Organ, a true symphonic hall organ, which is not at all common. The organist was Janette Fishell and the music was J.S. Bach. In her program notes, Fishell, who teaches at Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music, divided the concert into four distinct sections. She consolidated aspects of Bach's life and artistic development into the schoolboy, the ...

The audacity of victory. You have to want it. →

Obvious to those whose minds are not colonized: There is no way to end a war but through victory or defeat. Defeat is embraced through various forms of nuanced language, such as "end it," "honorable withdrawal" and "redeploy." Victory requires no such trickery or vocabulary. Victory is victory.... There are many who deserve credit for the successful strategy that has brought victory in Iraq (one which must, naturally, be maintained and preserved), such as ...

Bipartisanship, the high road, and the bigger picture →

Normally a favorite blogger of mine, Glenn Greenwald has a post up today that, since it was posted before the actual news that the Democrats have voted to keep Joe Lieberman in their caucus and in the chair of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, was ostensibly a preemptive condemnation of the bipartisanship the decision represents. Now, Greenwald is an incredibly smart guy, a former constitutional law and civil rights litigator, author of numerous books, ...

Seattlest Trivia Tonight: Old Pequliar, 8:00 →

Normally, Seattlest Trivia is the first Tuesday of the month. But there was apparently an election that day (no spoilers! We're 5 episodes behind) and everyone in the city was either glued to a TV set with their family or mafficking on First Avenue, so there was no trivia. But we're hosting tonight. Usual details: It's at the Old Pequliar, the quiz starts at 8:00 (though signup starts earlier, and tables run out earlier still), and ...

happy days, here again →

One sunny day in 2009 an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue, where he’d been sitting on a park bench. He finally approached the U.S. Marine standing guard and said, ‘I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.’ The Marine looked at the man and said, ‘Sir, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no longer resides here.’ The old man said, ‘Okay’ , quietly , and walked away. The following day, ...

the huskies are looking for a new dog, a new name, and a win →

presumably this dog has a real name. The University of Washington’s football team has yet to win a game this season. Perhaps sensing the shape of things to come, the official Husky mascot (an Alaskan Malamute called Whitepaw’s Arlut Spirit of Gold Dust, a.k.a. “Spirit”) suffered a “shoulder injury” and has avoided leading the team out of the tunnel, wandering the sidelines, feigning interest in the game, and napping under the bench. Maybe his absence ...

Nokia Recalls 5610 XpressMusic Handsets →

Rumor has it Nokia has announced that they are no longer offering their 5610 XpressMusic handset and will recall all of its existing inventory from stores and warehouses. This was prompted when a manufacturing problem affecting the phone’s display was detected. If you have one of the models, you can get a replacement of a 5310 or 6301 at any T-Mobile phone store plus a $25.00 or $50.00 credit from the company as a way ...
