Lights, cameras, sheep!

3 guys known as the "Baaa Studs" create hilarious performance art. The performers? Lots of sheep (wearing battery-powered light-suits) and some pretty hard-working sheep dogs. This is an incredible and funny video. Thanks to my bro, Frank, for reminding me about it.

TARIQ ALI: “Obama’s Afghan-Pak Syndrome"

Some good insight on the Afghan conflict--the kind that doesn't fit in 1-minute stories on the nightly news.

SNL covers the Party Crasher and Tiger Woods stories

As much as I objected to ridiculous overplay of these news stories by the MSM, you gotta hand it to the hilarious crew over at Saturday Night Live. Funny stuff!

Now Announcing Blog Posts with Twitterfeed

I'm going to add a little publicity to this thing with Twitterfeed. Twitterfeed lets you create a feed from any rss url and specify to post the title and url of a blog posting (for instance) to your Twitter account. Pretty cool. So, one less thing to think about if you're a blogger (like me) and you want to tweet/announce new postings from your blog (or from any web page that generates rss code.)

If you're on Twitter and you want to generate more buzz about your blog, this is really a no-brainer.

In case you're wondering, you can follow this blog at http://twitter.com/MyNetGems.

Stop YouTube From Displaying Related Videos on Your Blog Posts

YouTube has added a new feature which lets you customize embedded videos easily. It is now possible to turn off the related videos that show up at the end of your embedded video. Click the customize button and then uncheck the option to include these videos. You can check out the video above and see that there are none given at the end. (Brings back memories of "old" YouTube!)

Ron Paul on the Economics of Obama's Surge

Video and great comments as always by folks at the Daily Paul at the link.

O is the New W

Barack Obama has finally decided that we haven't spent enough money or lost enough lives or sufficiently fanned the flames of anti-American hatred, so today he called for the deployment of some additional 30,000+ soldiers to Afghanistan. Hope? Change? Bush!

Part 1


Part 2

From michaelmoore.com

Obama: "We Did Not Ask for This Fight"
Bush: "We Did Not Seek This Conflict"

Obama: "New Attacks are Being Plotted as I Speak"
Bush: "At This Moment ... Terrorists... are Planning New Attacks"

Obama: "Our Cause is Just, Our Resolve Unwavering"
Bush: "Our Cause is Just, Our Coalition [is] Determined"

Obama: "This Is No Idle Danger, No Hypothetical Threat"
Bush: "The Enemies of Freedom Are Not Idle"

Obama: "We Have No Interest in Occupying Your Country"
Bush: "I Wouldn't Be Happy if I Were Occupied Either"

(I can't wait for the YouTube video of this! Here's the best comparison video I found so far...

Peter Schiff vs Arnie Arneson

Spirited debate between Republican Senator candidate Peter Schiff and radio talk-show host Arnie Arneson. He, being the economist who predicted the economic meltdown of '08 and she being the socialist who doesn't think that Obama is being socialist enough. Funny, on how they both agree that Obama is failing. Thanks, reedr3v!

Gary Null on Vaccines

Amazing Stuff. Well worth checking these out:

Ron Paul rocks on The Situation Room and The ED Show

Part 1

Part 2
And, although Ed gave Ron Paul a pretty chilly reception on a previous show, he was quite warm and receptive to him here:

Thanks to Lindsey Graham for opening his big fat mouth and dissing Ron Paul! Keep it up Senator!!

It's a Mac, Mac, Mac, MacWorld

MacHeads is an hour-long documentary about Apple nerds and the attraction they have to the software and hardware that comes from Cupertino, California. Watching this makes me glad I don't have much to do with Macintosh anymore--this could have been me!

Must-see Documentary on Food

This is a horror movie, but it's true. We're living in a world where hardly anything is really nutritious or good for us anymore. The Future of Food will change the way you think about food and about the people who bring it to your plate.

Creepy Kids Sing the Praises of Dear Leader

Here's the song that's gotten so much publicity in the news. Ughhhh, ughhhh, ughhhh.


These are a year old, but still timely. This first one's really disturbing, even though it's a parody. The cult of personality really hearkens to Hitler's rise to power. This is pure indoctrination--there's just no way to sugar-coat it.


This one's a pretty funny parody where they pulled out all the stops. Soundtrack once again by the Obama Kool-Aid kids.

Doctors Warn Against H1N1 Vaccine Risks

I'm not sure which is more disturbing--the spread of this disease or of the strong-arm tactics being used to force people to get vaccinated. This is scary stuff. There's more info and discussion over at mercola.com.

The Not-So-Great Depression of 1920

If you can carve out 49 minutes to listen to this video, you'll learn a lot and come to appreciate the insight of Mr. Tom Woods, Jr.

Funniest video I've seen in ages

Big Bird disses Michelle Obama on Sesame Street. I'm sure they won't be playing this on MSNBC.

Keith Obermann gets owned

I'm diggin' this Matt Crowder guy from PJTV. If you've never seen Keith Olbermann --Obama's #2 fanboy behind Chris "thrill up my leg" Matthews--then you probably won't be able to appreciate this much. Still, worth a chuckle.

First post in ages

Just a note that I'm starting up the activity on this blog. It's been too long since I've posted, and I've got no really good reason. I'm anxious to start sharing again. Tech and politics goodies as I find em.

I'm tinkering with the layout, so bear with me until I get this more to my liking. Videos will now be posted HQ, when possible.

Enjoy!
