The Best Bacon Ever!(?)
At first I thought, “OMG! Delicious”. Then I almost immediately thought, “OMG! I’m gonna be sick”. I think bacon is all about the fat but this is just ridiculous.
Twatter Who are you doing?
Twatter: A global community of friends and strangers answering one simple question: Who are you doing? It doesn’t matter, because you’re all drunk and incoherent at SxSW!
Aboriginal Australia On Your Wall
I love this wall map of Aboriginal Australia. Using the published resources available between 1988 and 1994, the map attempts to represent language, tribal or nation groups of Australia’s Indigenous peoples. Cool!
Blue Ribbon Glee Club
The 25 singers in The Blue Ribbon Glee Club are Chicago’s (first?, only?) finest punk rock choir. You can download their versions of “Where Is My Mind?” by Pixies, “Waiting Room” by Fugazi, “Whole Wide World” by Wreckless Eric, and “Spanish Bombs” by The Clash, on their website. There is also a video of them singing “Where Is My Mind” (youtube).
If you are interested in joining a similar project, some punks in Colorado Springs are looking for members to join their Anarchists Marching Band. Sounds like a blast to me.
Students For An Orwellian Society
Students for an Orwellian Society is a cool nationwide student group that is documenting instances of Ingsoc (based on George Orwells prophetic novel “1984”) in todays news. They also have a great T-shirt selection.
