I found this awesome computer optical illusion on Slashdot the other day:


The monitor isn't infact transparent, it is an optical illusion. You take a picture of whatever's behind your computer, and set that picture as your computer background. Pretty neat stuff in a very geeky kind of way. More of these optical illusions found here.

I'm tempted to try this out at work j/k.

A few months ago, I was watching the MTV Icon Awards for Metallica. They were basically paying tribute to Metallica's contributions to music. A bunch of celebrities and bands were on hand to perform and speak. One of the wierdest set of presenters was Rob Zombie accompanied by Jolene Blalock. For the non-geeks, Ms. Blalock plays a Vulcan named T'Pol on Enterprise... and last time I checked, Vulcans don't listen to Metallica.

Anyways, the best part of the show was the stand-up comedy act that Jim Breuer did. Mr. Breuer has a very interesting act because he's a heavy metal stand-up comic. He has a live band perform with him during his routine. This isn't your normal everyday Jerry Seinfeld routine. Jim paid tribute to Metallica by doing a Metallica inspired rendition of the child's classic song, "If You're Happy And You Know It."

I looked for months to try and find Jim Breuer's Metallica act, and finally I have found it.



Enjoy
