A snowstorm for you.

January 7, 2008

This awesome video of a snowy day in Boston almost makes me wish for some snow here in the DC area.

I say almost, now if you’ll excuse me I’m going to take a walk on this rare 60 degree plus day.

You can file this video for Jenny Owen Youngs‘ version of Hot In Herre under my like affair for alternative versions of hip-hop songs (see herre, herre, and herre for more).

High wire job.

Wow, this video of a guy who repairs high voltage power lines from a helicopter is amazing …

A little blues for ye.

A little Jon Spencer Blues Explosion featuring Beck in the video for Flavor.

Was that Mike D. in the restaurant? Also, another Blues Explosion song that has been stuck in my head is Do You Wanna Get Heavy?

The rundown.

This is my son’s favorite new game. Please excuse my Howard Dean’esque yelp at the end.

Imagine us as tiny Korean children.

This local (at least I think these only showed in the DC area?) commercial was almost as catchy as the Eastern Motors ones.

It’s business time.

The Morning News culls some hilarious Flight of Concords videos for your viewing pleasure. My favorite is Business Time, but the Hiphopopotamus vs. The Ryhmenoceros is purty good as well.

The 1234 bandwagon.

I’m jumping on the bandwagon and declaring my like for Feist’s 1 2 3 4. Check out the video …

Join me, resistance is futile.

Ch-check it out.

This Beastie Boys performance from Letterman is one of the reasons I could never be a rock star. They walk/rap for about 2-3 minutes before they even hit the stage. After about the first minute I would be lying somewhere on the side of an NYC street, sucking wind. In case you’re wondering, one of the other reasons I could never be a rap superstar is my lack of any discernible musical talent.
