Cut and get the F out

Via Spoony D, Here is one of the greatest websites ever. I often talk about the future where internet will replace your TV and cable service, but Find That Show Dot Com has actually taken a very small step tin that direction by tracking down links to dozens and dozens of shows on sites like Daily Motion - all one free-click away.

If you havent already, everyone should check out It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. (More picks to come later).

How many work hours (weeks) could I kill watching the three hour premeire and then all three seasons of Battlestar Galactica.

I tend to stay away from commercial rock radio in favor of my Ipod. But has commercial rock radio been supassed by....actual commercials.
Blue by the Fruit of The Loom Guys kicks ass. Actually as good as anything put out by Coldplay

10 Part roast of BaBa Boooey.

Has anyone alerted the collective nerds of the interwebs to the video of Lonleygirl’s cover shoot with Wired.

Because it is unquestionably established that bitches can’t hang with the streets

Continuing with my earlier project of finding badass Documentaries on the internets and watching them during downtime, I have a few more choice-finds for you:

OutFOXed

What: Amazing documentary about how Faux News twists and distorts the news into some kind entertainment-propaganda-front for the Bush administration.
Highlight: Bill O’reilly claiming that only once did he say “shut up,” followed by about 10 clips of him doing just that. http://www.sweetjesusihatebilloreilly.com Hah - an organization of hope.

The Root of Evil
What: Documentary by renowned atheist and author of The God Delusion. No mention of the spaghetti monster though.
Highlight: Dawkins meets with Megachurch Mega-Pastor Ted Haggard who has a “hotline to George Bush.” Haggard tells Dawkins that he is arrogant, that the bible is infallible, and preaches on how gays will be punished. You might recognize Haggard because a few months after this video, Haggard was caught buying crystal meth from his regular gay hooker. 100% True story.

Jeff Buckley BBC Documentary
What: Just what it sounds like, a documentary on one of the great singer-songwriter-guitarists of the '90s who couldve been one of the all-time greats if not taken from us too early
Highlight: Would have been this video if included.

On to political news, as always -- stop reading if you dont care

For some reason we are still in Iraq. Almost all experts now agree that we are trying to police the Country during a civil war and that the Iraqi people themselves want us out. Yet we continue to be stuck in that nonsense, and despite the reccomendations of the ISG, Bush is probably going to send MORE troops. The only good argument for staying, has always been that a civil war will break out if we leave – too late for that. Well finally a Republican Senator has joined the many democrats calling for us to get out. Wow is this speech great - and amazing that it is finally coming from a Republican and not just democrats
Senator Gordon Smith: "I, for one, am at the end of my rope when it comes to supporting a policy that has our soldiers patrolling the same streets in the same way, being blown up by the same bombs day after day. That is absurd. It may even be criminal." .... "So let's cut and run, or cut and walk, or let us fight the war on terror more intelligently than we have, because we have fought this war in a very lamentable way."

Meanwhile the current republican congress has left our troops so underfunded that they are forced to write home and beg for SILLY STRING in order to detect trip wires in Iraq. How about giving our troops real tools to fight this war, or even better, getting them the hell out of that civil war.

Amazing link. If only I was so handy.

The shot of the monster looking over the neighbor's "traditional" decorations is classic.
