Individually, these .gif’s are kinda bland, but patch ’em together and they’re kinda cool. Scrolling your mouse wheel up and down like you just did doesn’t faze ’em either. Too hot to handle and too cold to hold.

Olympic athelete Jorge “El Pedo Blanco” Perez was (posthumously) awarded the Gold Medal, finishing first in the 30 Meter Men’s Flatulence Competition on Thursday.
While hovering near an open flame just past the finish line, Mr. Perez ignited, and launched himself from the arena leaving a bright trail of orange and green sparks. Mr. Perez has not been seen or heard from since, but his memory lives on as an inspiration to all those who follow in his footsteps.
In English, “El Pedo” roughly translates as “Hoverman.” Congratulations, Jorge, wherever you are.

How many wrong predictions about the future of the internest can you find in this Newsweek article from 1995? (Note that someone updated the post in 31 January 2008… what did it say before?)
Quick! Call 911!
Fail. You. Here.

The worst “50 Greatest Bands” compilation I’ve ever seen; all the wrong ones, and all out of order.
Aussies have always had my respect, but they’ve also puzzled me, until I read this. Now I’m just confused.
Someone else besides me knows who the Stoop Down man is. It’s Chick Willis. Here he is rockin’ out to the sitting dead.
When someone axes me what station I listen to online, I tell ’em either Jango or Seeqpod, depending on my mood. Both are cool. Seeqpod (beta) has a lot of mislabeled and dead links, but doesn’t pester you to sign up like Jango does. They both do the same thing, different ways.
Long tongues. Really.
Did we mention the Popularity Dialer? I thought it was clever, but the FCC shut it down while appeals are being filed.
Forget Waldo. Where’s LEON? He’s here.

“Off-screen, Farley was well-known for his pranks in the offices of Saturday Night Live. A March 13, 1995 New York Magazine article references Farley and Adam Sandler making late-night prank phone calls from the SNL offices in Rockefeller Center, with Sandler speaking in an old woman’s voice and Farley then farting into the phone, as well as Farley mooning cars from a limousine.”
Chris Farley (1964-1997) was a classic.

The nice folks at WordPress decided to challenge us by revamping the way we normally create posts. Looks like it has some new bells and whistles that are kinda cool, like being able to post archived videos without having to upload them to the Utoobage, but it won’t let me do it for some reason. Ditto music. So I decided to link to a video on the Utoobage, like I have in the past, and this is all I get:
It’s a link to the Utoobage alright, but you can’t see it on the post itself. This is not good and I hope the nice folks at WordPress resolve this annoyance. I guess I shouldn’t complain… after all, their website hosting is free [LIKE BLOGGER.com].
Please bear with me for the next few days. As y’all know, this site updates daily, but with my current workload I may have to skip a day now and then. Don’t worry, Tacky Raccoons isn’t going away, but it might move.
