I was listening to Floyd on my way to work this morning. Right before exiting the freeway this song came on, and it reminded me of how awesome Rick Wright was. This is one of those songs I can’t get tired of. It’s just perfectly executed and performed. The video manages to work really well with the song too. It kinda has a weird art-deco and surrealist blend that matches the eerie tone of the music and lyrics.

IcePan
When was the last time you heard your vegan friend say, “hey, let’s go get some ice-cream”? Well, if you live anywhere near West Hollywood, you might hear your friend say it a couple of times a week, and if you like ice-cream yourself, then you will gladly reply with “let’s go!” That’s right, now there is a place where everyone can enjoy ice-cream, even your vegan friends! IcePan has ten delicious flavors, including coffee and green tea, which are prepared right in front of you. You have the option of whole milk, low-fat, non-fat and soy. The friendly staff will make this delicious ice-cream while you wait, and will add whatever toppings you want. You also have the option of getting your ice-cream served on a waffle cone, which I just found out is vegan too. Check out their site at IcePanusa.com.

Most people’s memory of the internet only goes as far back as when they signed up for their first MySpace account, but some of us have been around cyberspace long enough to remember things like SuperGreg, Bonsai Kitten and Ze Frank. Some of us remember seeing the BlairWitch web site and thinking it was real before there was any announcement of the movie, or when we first saw the poor StarWars kid swinging a stick around pretending it was a light saver. For those of you that weren’t around cyberspace back then, there is this nifty meme timeline. Thanks to the guys at Dipity.Com we can now take a stroll down memory lane and discover Help Computer for the first time again.

Religulous
I guess I was expecting a little more comedy when I went to watch Bill Maher’s Religulous this weekend. Instead, the movie delivered a few funny scenes and a lot of preaching. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for teaching people about free thinking, but all this movie did was ridicule some religious figures without offering much of an argument against their believes. It falls flat on the education side, and the apocalyptic ending just added to the flatness. If anything, this movie would be best enjoyed with a religious friend, just to get a kick out of their reaction.

I was checking online to see if Jarvis was up to anything new, and while following links to videos of some of his recent performances, I ran into this video. Apparently the first time Pulp ever played on American tele was on the Late Show with David Letterman. I have no idea of how I ever missed that, specially since I’ve always been a big Letterman fan.
