I recently ordered some shoes online. The brand is unpronounceable to me, as it features several consonants in a row. They have not exploded yet. But I’m wary.

Something for the Beatle / Watch Nerd Bastards
Came across this interesting article in the New Yorker about John Lennon’s stolen ridiculously expensive and rare watch. I know we have people on this blurg that are into the Beatles and watches.

A few years ago, a Canadian musician slowed down a few Chipmunks songs to 16 RPM, and it’s kind of awesome. The singing is pretty good, and at that speed, it’s all gothy and moody. Like you have anything better to do today.

I Am Magneto! You Are Nothing
As indicated in the YouTube comments, this arcade game was MASSIVE in the early 90’s. Fun game, but really fun when other players jumped in to help you fight.

If nothing else, just watch the intro.
