Smash that Easter Egg

This Easter Egg Creaming Video reminds me of an old cartoon contraption, an awesome game of Mousetrap , a Pee-Wee Herman opening for a movie (see second video), or a Rube Goldberg Machine (see third video), which is basically a complex machine that accomplishes a ridiculously simple task by the end...

Amy Winehouse is not afraid...

This You-Tube video from an Amy Winehouse performance appears to include a little mood adjustment (the video is called "Amy Winehouse takes a bump at her concert")... ah, the life of Rock Stars, when the stage becomes your own safe haven to catch a quick pick-me-up.

Another reason that coffee rocks...

This story touts the "discovery" of a link between coffee and hallucinations... However, as you read further, it appears that this study has correlated the two, but it could just as easily be that people that have lots of hallucinations also enjoy coffee (who's the cause, or is the relationship causal at all?). I don't know, but it would be interesting to see the marketing campaign that Starbucks would use if coffee caused hallucinations. Part of management wants to market to the crowd that enjoys hallucinogens, part of them wants to discredit the hell out of this... maybe have Robin Williams as their spokesperson. Judging from the below bit he did on Cocaine, he'd be perfect!

Huffington Post's 2008 You-Tube Videos of the Year...

Huffington Post has some hilarious selections for their YouTube videos of the year ... The ancient Bill O'Reilly one where he goes insane for a minute, and the Andy Samberg and Tom Cruise ones are good. I guess the Palin Turkey-Head Chopping one was a little late in the year...
