Daily View, 6/29

(really 6/28, part deux, but who really cares)

• If you must wash dishes, why not wash them with this kickass skull sponge?


• Pirate packaging gives a whole new meaning to Good Night, and Good Luck.


• Totally want to live on a boat at some point. What movie did Carrie Fisher live on a boat?? It's driving me crazy. Was it... can it possibly be... yes, I believe it was Drop Dead Fred. Possibly the most obnoxious movie I have ever truly truly loved. Rik Mayall, where can you possibly be now? Oh. There you are.


• Gawker Media recently launched Gawker Clips. Because it's not bad enough that the internet has turned me into the gossip rag reading nightmares I always sneered at in the supermarket checkout line... now it's got to steer me towards daytime television and the like. Jaysus.


• Christ, the Coreys reunite. Surely this is a sign of the apocalypse.


• Is nothing sacred? Star Wars meets Monty Python with only lukewarm success.


• Those kids at the RCA sure know how to work a concept. However, as was clearly obvious to me when I visited the school in January, they very rarely bother to execute a finished product that works as nicely as the original idea. I want to see the Natural Deselection machine in action, damn it.


• This Mario Bedroom is much better than the black and white checkerboard I made my dad paint on my bedroom walls in junior high. Sigh.


• Wow. What the... But hey, it's true, the subway is filthy wrong and maybe a goldfish finger puppet would indeed manage to somehow improve the situation. ??


• I have to say, I dig this weird caravan birdhouse.


• Photoshopped Merit Badges. Great idea. Too bad *g and I already had a business plan for it. GRRR.


• Some surprising choices from directors listing the movie they've seen the most. Jake Kasdan, you're my new hero.


• Dude, this is so damn cool my head is spinning. How I would love to cruise with the sharks... in a shark of my own!


• And speaking of the murky deep, these knit nautoloids are too cute not to mention. Totally useless, but damn cute.

Believe it or not, to be continued... at some point...
