If Ghostbusters was filmed in 1954...

And...

Fan created Ghostbusters 3 Trailer...using clips from other movies...

I had never heard about this until tonight. Am I just getting old?

This guy makes it look so easy. Many a weekday afternoon was spent trying to beat this game.

Various Smart Car videos:

And the doubledecker Smart Car

Trying really hard to figure out if this is a joke or not...

I'm honestly not sure if anyone still checks this (other that me, and, obviously, Jeff, who is the lone remaining contributor), but I saw this and immediately thought of high school:

Seriously. Real Headline. Here is the story.

Reminds me of a joke I heard in high school. Anyone?

And apologies to Jeff.... if, indeed, you are the only one still reading this, you probably won't understand since I am alluding to a quasi-inside joke.

A recent study of college freshmen showed those with 200 or more Facebook friends scored lower self-esteem than those with less than 200 Facebook friends.

Link to the study is here.

The reasoning behind it is those with 200 friends are likely not to go out and stress about real-life friends.

Just in case you hadn't heard. High is now Middle.

But you can still see "High School" on the sign....

I wrote this for another website. Your mileage may vary:

Many a budding shutterbug has attempted unsuccessfully to photograph fireworks by merely pointing their film camera to the sky and shooting, resulting dark useless prints.

With the advent of digital photography, photographing fireworks has become easy, just by following some basic steps:

Find a location away from the crowd and power lines. An elevated location on a hillside or on the back of a pickup truck might be adequate. You might even want to scout out your perch beforehand.

Set your camera to use standard quality pics. Having too high quality settings will result in too long of write speed, thereby making you miss shots.

Set the shutter speed to 1 second or longer.

Use a tripod. If you can't find a tripod use a nice steady base.

Turn off the flash. This might seem like common sense. Remember you are photographing lights. Any light projected onto another light will merely take away from the light you are trying to photograph.

Point your camera toward the sky and shoot. A key to getting a good shot is anticipating when the firework will explode. Initially You will have many hit and miss shots. As the show goes along, you will be able to perfect your timing thereby getting excellent shots. Being able to review the shots afterwards and delete the poor quality shots is satisfaction enough, rather than using up a great amount of film with a film camera.

Here's our address for the next...at least 3 months.

Write sweetly and often?

We love and miss you guys, especially you ones we're used to seeing around.

Let's hook up for an alternative 10 year reunion or something...your thoughts?

Well, actually I don't have schizophrenia, but these people do. A surprisingly good episode from MTV's True Life.

Some thoughts -

Josh doesn't want help. His mother is pretty much fed up with him and wants him voluntarily committed. He will probably end up on the street.

I'm not even sure that Amber has schizophrenia at all. She seems just depressed and very unsure of herself. She's afraid to take a speech class, but has the ability to broadcast her life on MTV?

I felt the most sympathy for Ben. Many many people get as depressed as him. His father's and grandfather's illness doesn't help his mental state. However he has a supportive family, so hopefully everything will work out for him.

Its been a while, but I know EXACTLY how he feels...

And then there's this little gem:

Ok, so at first, I thought this was a little bit cool. But the longer I watched it, the more creeped out and uncomfortable I felt. The music really highlights that feeling, so if possible, watch with speakers on.

So GTA IV is coming out today... I pre-ordered mine from BestBuy some time ago. It probably won't arrive for a couple more days,. Its ok though, I am pretty busy during the week.

From what I've read, the game is incredible. I have seen multiple critics give it a 10/10 (which I have never seen before). It is supposed to have some cool multiplayer, so maybe those of us who have a PS3 can get together for some destructive meyham.

CNN appears to have added a new feature on their website- you can click a little t-shirt next to a headline and order your very own t-shirt displaying the headline.... Here's an example (not making this up- this is a real CNN headline) Any idea who exactly these t-shirts are being marketed to?

of the c/o 2000 authors listed on the right, the following people are not yet on facebook:

C Bryan, Pappert. that is all.

come on guys... if you don't want to get on there for YOU, that's fine... but why don't you get on there for the rest of us? We've got a lot of pictures and stuff we'd love to share with you... the point is, it's a SOCIAL network and as much as you guys like to try and find reasons not to like it, you've got to appreciate the fact that over 50 million people are using it- there's got to be SOME reason that it's so popular-

I would re-vouch for why I find it very useful for keeping up with friends and acquaintances, but I think I've already done that and it didn't work the first time... suffice to say that the technology has kept up with the times- it makes myspace look extremely outdated when you compare the two-- you can actually put in your AOL screen name, or email address and it'll tell you all the people you know who are members and stuff... once you make a few friends it even makes suggestions about people it thinks you probably know...

why don't the two of you at least just MAKE an account and check out all our pictures and stuff- you don't have to maintain it if after a reasonable trial of 3 or 4 days you still find it to be useless... that's my challenge... jerks

seriously- can someone else on here who uses facebook back me up?

So far, the conversion of videogames to film has not been a flattering process to the source material. Hope for anything more than mediocrity and you'll be very disappointed. I feel that one of the main reasons for this is poor choice of games to adapt. When you have plenty of fairly story rich games floating around, how is it that studios land on fighting games 75% of the time? But, Tetris? Seriously? That's like making Pong: The Movie. Initially I had trouble believing that this wasn't a joke, but I think it might be legitimate. Click on the link in the title and watch the trailer. They must be going for the campy vibe, right?

My new favorite old song...

Listen to the lyrics.

Some other notes of interest. Even though the lyrics tell of a mother giving advice to her "only son," author Ronnie Van Zant was one of 3 brothers.

This commercial is old in so many ways...... licking a stamp... hah!
