I'm in Portugal at the moment, and tonight I ate dinner at a friend's house. He is German, but his house mates are Portuguese. After dinner we swapped youtubes. Here is one where the film crew are trying to get a Brazilian lady to say "www.youtube.com":
My favourite was of a TV host laughing inappropriately for way too long, while the audience sit in silence. The subtitles are great, especially the colours.
Haha, I don't know who, but someone was messing with the Geeknights wiki article.
"Despite what many might think, Geeknights is well known across hundreds of nations all over the world. Geeknights has been around for several centuries and has a very important meaning in the lives of many. It would be safe to assume that Geeknights is going to be around for a long time and have an enormous impact on the lives of many people.
Social & Cultural Factors
Geeknights has a large role in American Culture. Many people can often be seen taking part in activities associated with Geeknights. This is partly because people of most ages can be involved and families are brought together by this. Generally a person who displays their dislike for Geeknights may be considered an outcast.
Economic Factors
It is not common practice to associate economics with Geeknights. Generally, Geeknights would be thought to have no effect on our economic situation, but there are in fact some effects. The sales industry associated with Geeknights is actually a 2.3 billion dollar a year industry and growing each year. The industry employs nearly 150,000 people in the United States alone. It would be safe to say that Geeknights play an important role in American economics and shouldn't be taken for granted.
Environmental Factors
After a three month long research project, I've been able to conclude that Geeknights doesn't negatively effect the environment at all. A Geeknights did not seem to result in waste products and couldn't be found in forests, jungles, rivers, lakes, oceans, etc... In fact, Geeknights produced some positive effects on our sweet little nature.
Political Factors
Oh does Geeknights ever influence politics. Last year 5 candidates running for some sort of position used Geeknights as the primary topic of their campaign. A person might think Geeknights would be a bad topic to lead a campaign with, but in fact with the social and environmental impact is has, this topic was able to gain a great number of followers. These 5 candidates went 4 for 5 on winning their positions.
Conclusion
Geeknights seem to be a much more important idea that most give credit for. Next time you see or think of Geeknights, think about what you just read and realize what is really going on. It is likely you under valued Geeknights before, but will now start to give the credited needed and deserved."
How can it be that zany and still correctly spelled? So Rym and Scott, about that 2.3 billion dollar a year industry..
Afterthough: We have so got to make corrections to this; along the lines of Geeknights' contributions to religion and their effect on the roman empire. Complete with citations and links to the relevant articles.
Wondrous, I spoke out in delight as I started listening to the first sample. Exquisite it is, but its seventy dollar price puts it out of my budget for an appliance such as an alarm clock.

Ah, but for the paltry price of your bandwidth, you may find enjoyment in the fact that you are able to emulate this wondrous timepiece using the provided mp3s in conjunction with a mp3 alarm clock plug-in, such as the ones available for winamp.

Truth, but they only give 10 out of 190 voice samples. Having such a small pool of samples is a great setback.

Not to mention they aren't complete. Really, did you listen to them? Most of them are 3 1/2 words
There is a guy who is drawing one character from geeky works every day from 10/31/08 until 10/31/09, you can see all of his stuff here. They are all made of win, especially the villains from Raiders of the Lost Ark.

That's pretty awesome. I like how he ties in some drawings with the next day's. I'm so loving the Die Hard ones. 55-60. "Look no bullets, Hanz!"
There are a few I think I know where it's from, but I'm not exactly sure. Images 31-36, are they characters from Metal Gear Solid? Anyone?

They are, in fact, from Metal Gear Solid. I really like that Hellboy was released on my birthday, I know that it is a crazy-random-happenstance, but I really like that series.
A bit old, but still good. Hannity & Colmes was taken of the air (yay), and replaced by a show just called "Hannity" (boo). At least now they don't have to pretend anymore that they have a discussion... Anyways, Colmes took a small stint, with the Colbert Report: Colbert & Colmes.

Personal thing of the day: Africa... wheee!
Silly little balloon animals. On that note, It might be too silly for you to view it at work.
