I was skeptical when I read about this on KOS, but when I watched this new video from Romney, I was pretty astonished. 

I think (THINK) that we see one African American police officer or firefighter’s head from behind at one point. And the little girl on the tire swing is… brunette, I guess? 

But I honestly could not find one non-white person in this video. That’s a surprising choice, and a very creepy end result. 

And he has the “Infants with iPads” vote locked up.

One hundred and fifty years ago today, on March 9, 1862, the first prophetic battle between ironclads — the USS Monitor and CSS Virginia (aka Merrimac) — took place at Hampton Roads, Virginia.   The encounter ended in a standoff, but naval warfare was forever changed.

I have a model of the CSS Virginia that my Dad made years ago.

Cooking Tip of the Day: Capers are sun-dried, pickled flower buds from a spiny shrub. They range from tiny nonpareils to large caperberries. #PastaWeek

Is this actually a TIP?  More of a tid-bit if you ask me.

Holy Crap What of the Day: Henry & Aaron’s ad for Australia’s Central Institute of Technology skewers the cheap, cheesy visual effects of most technical school ads — literally.

High-larious!

YOU MAY RECALL from last December, I had a simple wish:

I WANTED SOMEONE ON THE INTERNET to dress up like Dr. Zaius and perform sections of Hal Holbrook’s Mark Twain Tonight. 

THE REASONS FOR THIS were SELF-EVIDENT.

THE INTERNET did what it could, providing SEVERAL STILL PHOTOGRAPHS and one BRIEF MOVING IMAGE.

BUT WHEN NO INTERNET PERSON was able to provide a full and complete video of ZAIUS-AS-TWAIN, I was forced to turn to the professionals, specifically:

LANCE BANGS, professional filmmaker.

ANDY SCHONEBERG, professional make-up artist.

and

DANA GOULD, professional ZAIUS IMPERSONATOR, and APE TWAIN INCARNATE! 

POSTED ABOVE YOU WILL SEE WHAT ACTUALLY OCCURRED at Cobb’s Comedy Club on January 20, 2012, in the USA. 

THAT IS ALL

Ultra-Violent Lego Captain America

I didn’t see the Captain America movie, but I assume it wasn’t this violent, or entertaining, or good at all.
