I loved the Scandinavian reaction (both the bartender and the patrons) to Bart Simpson's prank phone call...

Amazing game last night, and it was very cool to have been there for it. I obviously didn't watch the game on TV, but it's amusing to read the differing opinions on the announcers' alleged bias:

"...I could bitch about the absurdly pro-Boston telecast..." -- Halos Heavens

"Then I watched the game and saw the ridiculous anti-Boston bias among the announcers..." -- Surviving Grady

So I'm guessing it evens out and was an unbiased telecast?

Growing up riding BMX, Freestylin' magazine was the shit -- very cool, informative, great photos. Every month we couldn't wait to get the new issue in the mail. I just found out that a very limited edition Freestylin' Retrospective Book was recently published and from the sounds of it, it's nearly impossible for us old-school riders to get our hands on a copy. But thanks to the interweb, at least we can see it online. It was also pretty cool to see one of my `zines in the book (page 123).

Jeff:

Do evangelical Christians realize the staggering irony of dismissing Obama's message of "hope" as meaningless and ineffective?

* Not ironic

Amelia drew a picture and told the story of Mighty Snake. I took her drawing and recorded story, then put it all together in iMovie. You can see the result here...

I've been meaning to check out Last.fm + YouTube = music tv goodness for a while, and it's pretty cool: If you have a Last.fm account, plug it in and watch videos by bands you like. It's like a personalized MTV (back when MTV actually played videos, of course). Here's "my" channel.

Rapha (a cycling clothing company) interviewed eight of the top custom frame builders in the U.S., including Circle A Cycles (where my brother is a builder).

Custom frame building is both a science and an art. It is an ever-evolving process of geometry, wizardry and psychology, all brought together in an effort to understand the specific wants and needs of an individual rider. Few builders get rich, few even get famous, but every builder holds a special place in the hearts of the cyclists for whom they build. Every frame is a labor of love. At it's best, it's a perfect combination of builder and rider.

I thought this was hilarious. Typeface humor...God, I'm a design nerd.
