So, I’m in the back of a pickup with Bill Brasky and a live deer! Well, Brasky, he grabs the deer by the antlers, looks at it and says, “I’m Bill Brasky! Say it!” Then he squeezes the deer in such a way that a sound comes out of its mouth - “Billbrasky!” It wasn’t exactly it, but it was pretty good for a deer!” {via}

Beauty in Music: the non-rock star pretty women. {via}

Talus Watch: fuzzy approximations of time. I like it. {via}

Pantalaine: I don’t know if this is for real but it’s quite elaborate if it’s not. They are purveyors of plural clothing: pants etc. for two. {via}

GIF Pronunciation Guide: it’s JIF and if you pronounce it like GIFT without the T then you’re an idiot. Sorry, someone had to tell you. {via}

Google China: wow, this screenshot makes Google seem really evil. {via}

Hi, my name is Thomas Arie Setiawan and I am a complete homo. If you see me on the street, please pull down my pants and take advantage of me. If you want to arrange some gay sex, please call me at 62.818276728 and if you have a dog (or a goat), we could make it a threesome.

White Cliffs Underground: Dover, England area ruins from World War II and the Cold War. {via}

Idiotarod 2006: like the Alaskan Iditarod except it’s in Brooklyn and the sled is a shopping cart and the dogs are people and the checkpoints require 20 minutes of drinking. Okay, so the only thing they have in common is pulling. {via}

Web Authoring Statistics: I’m a sucker for stats and this set of statistics is about Web pages, so it’s especially cool. The sample set’s a little light: only a billion of Google’s 11 billion or so pages indexed. But it’ll do. {via}

Top Ten Reasons No One Reads Your Blog: I would add “You keep changing services, thus breaking your links and feeds.” Guilty!

Top 290 Simpsons Quotes: I think you should shed the pretension of calling a list of 290 items the “top.” There are, however, some great quotes here. {via}

Interview with Matthew Lesko: you know, the question-mark guy. {via}

Wanna Spell: reminds me of a poorer version of Scratchpad. Enh, everyone’s linking to it.

eStarling Wi-Fi Gmail / Flickr Enabled LCD Frame: umm, why would you want to frame your email? Flickr, sure, but Gmail?

100 Most Annoying Things of 2005: I’ll gladly second #15 and #4. {via}

Carinval in Rio with Arnold Schwarzenegger: I bet there’s many things like this that he wish he had never made. I love the part where he makes hand-binoculars to get a better view of a dancer’s butt, the part where he’s grabbing a dancer’s butt as she’s trying to move his hands up a bit, and especially the part where he’s in costume dancing about like an idiot. {via}

Classic Rock Guitar Pose Page: how to look like a rock star. Shh, don’t tell anyone. {via}

What is your dangerous idea?: each year Edge.org asks a question to a bunch of important people and offers their responses for public consumption.
