Oh My God You Guys

I could sit and look through everything on this website for hours. I have no idea who they are or why they do what they do but 9000 is (are?) awesome. I highly recommend spending forever poking around.

A New Civilization? Yes, Please.

My pants have been pooped.

Super Punch: Google's products explained

Super Punch: Google's products explained

These two are pretty good and make kinda good points re: Google, but the rest of the series is a little lacking. It's only because the writing is um, exactly the same on all of them. Mix it up a little, man.

FATE

This is crazy but this week Modern Copywriter posted back to back posts of two of my favorite instructors so far at BrainCo (I'm pretty sure Burk was spelled wrong). Read and learn. Also, this is not going to turn into a blog only about ad stuff. I promise. Twins season starts in like, 50 days.

More Ways to Profit From Dogs

I already posted about an idea to rent puppies so guys can pick up girls, now Chapman University is taking a more therapeutic approach and offering puppies to students to relieve stress. This would have been totally awesome to have at Eau Claire. In fact, why not have dog vestibules all over? Having a shitty day? Stop by the Dog Cube in the US Bank skyway and frolick with some puppies! Plus, it would double as a dog daycare for people who don't want to drive home on their lunch break and let their dogs out to pee and poop.

New Motion City Soundtrack Goodness

Hey all, swing on over to Spin and listen to another track from Motion City Soundtrack's new album out January 19th. They're also kicking off their tour here in Mpls at First Ave. that Saturday, the 23rd. I'm not saying that you totally suck if you don't go but I'm just sayin'... I mean, I'll be there and I don't suck, so I guess I don't really know where the sucky people will be that night.

Your Words Destroyed My Planet - awesome name for a song, awesome song. Much better than their other sneak peek song, Disappear, which is out on iTunes now and is not too shabby in its own right.

And Out Comes the Nerd

Yes, I know. Months since the last post. Again. I had to throw this up, though. One of the ways I find new music is through Hype Machine, a pretty decent music blog search engine. So I go on today, planning on finding the new Netherfriends song and the latest post just happened to be a cover of a Weird Al jam.

Turns out there's not just one. This guy over at Cover Me compiled like 15 Weird Al covers for my nerdy listening pleasure. Does it blow anyone else's mind that people are covering Weird Al!? I feel like it gives him some indie cred and I love it. If anything, this is a great way to relive the days of sitting in my room playing with M.U.S.C.L.E.S. and rocking 'Dare To Be Stupid' on my boombox.
