make sure to watch until the end. - Jess Lee

You made her promise not to do what? Stuff you when you die? Or drag you around on a string? Which part is it that you find objectionable Kevin? :) - Jeanette Martinez

OK, I just got chastised by the spoiler police (Tudor). But srsly folks, I don't think this video could be any less shocking or bizarre for those who read my comment first. - Jeanette Martinez

Crazy! Viet Kieu can actually be dual citizens soon. I used to have to explain how as refugees we became stateless because of the reasons why we left VN, but the new law opens the doors for VK to buy property in VN in the future. - Mai

more gorgeous video shot by the Canon 5D, Mark II - Mai

Kristen! Sorry I missed the reception, I was protesting against the passage of Prop 8 instead. Its passage broke my heart. Hope your SF visit went well. - Mai

Bedroom Walls are always great for cloudy days. - Mai

Saw her in Berlin. Love the puppet show. - Mai

Deleted Angkor Wat scene from In the Mood for Love. Notice the washed out colors? (As opposed to oversaturated HK scenes during their "affair".) Also! Angkor Wat is very beautifully shot. - Mai

Proud. - Mai

via brettl, this happened *inside* the apartment below my housemate's friend's apartment. they must've known the shooter(s). - Mai

So get this: This person has a youtube channel that consists entirely of him/her wearing a fancy golden mask and wearing discount scarves that flow in the wind. This person is what makes the internet amazing. This person could be a serial killer. This person could be an artist. Makes no difference either way—still genius. - Stewart

scary genius. - Mai

Love these sort of coincidences. - Mai

Wow. I can't believe she didn't figure it out after he started talking about hunting and Dick Cheney and how he loves killing things. - Jess Lee

And the bit about her "edgy" documentary "Nailin' Pailin"? Classic! - Joel Webber

I am so glad I'm not a public figure. I do see what they mean about her cutesy-pootsyness. It's adora-borable, yes it is! The sad thing is I wouldn't have done nearly as well in that conversation. - MiɳiMagɘ (Sexy Scimitar)

I love this idea of promoting condom use by using cultural specific scents to create familiarity, but the Durian scent would make me leap out of bed and kill any sexual desire. - Mai

"Amanda Jones, 109, the daughter of a man born into slavery, has lived a life long enough to touch three centuries. And after voting consistently as a Democrat for 70 years, she has voted early for the country's first black presidential nominee. The middle child of 13, Jones, who is African American, is part of a family that has lived in Bastrop County for five generations. The family has remained a fixture in Cedar Creek and other parts of the county, even when its members had to eat at segregated barbecue dives and walk through the back door while white customers walked through the front, said Amanda Jones' 68-year-old daughter, Joyce Jones." - Paul Buchheit via Bookmarklet

Jason - true; in some ways, it feels like slavery still affects us more than stuff that happened leading up to World War 2 - Chris Lamprecht

worth reading and contemplating. - Jason Kaneshiro

The Dears! Depressingly lovely, should I torture myself and go see them on Monday? - Mai

Fun and totally not related to politics. - Mai

Barack Obama jack-o-lantern. - Mai

Fan made art of celebrities, media is food. - Mai

"Hello. I'm calling for John McCain and the RNC because you need to know that Barack Obama has not accepted Joe the Plumber's friend request on Facebook. We know he's logged on, because we saw he changed his status on Monday. On Tuesday, he joined the group Art Historians Are Saucy. But he still won't accept Joe the Plumber's friend request. He knows it's Joe. Joe uses the screen shot of the two of them together as his profile picture. That's not a uniter. That's the same old liberal-elite politics as usual." - Kevin Fox via Bookmarklet

"Hello. I'm calling for John McCain and the RNC because you need to know that Barack Obama doesn't use his turn signal when he merges onto a freeway. I mean, seriously, who the hell does this guy think he is? He just goes. It's not even like he attempts to fit in. And I'm not talking lone-wolf maverick style, either. I mean, this is the kind of driving that gets people killed. Much like the bombs of Bill Ayers that could have killed countless Americans. That's not change, my friends. That's the same old Washington politics as usual." - Ana

"lie to everyone about everything." - Mai

Seems a shame. We spent the better part of this afternoon looking for the alleged Banksy on the remaining Wall. We didn't find it. - Mai

Lush colors in a video filmed entirely by the Canon 5D Mark II. Entire cost of the shoot? $4000, $2000 for the helicopter. - Mai

"Nike Hindsight is, put simply, like giving bicyclists a pair of bifocals for their peripheral vision. By using Fresnel lenses on the sides of eye wear, riders can detect motion in a field of view beyond the normal human limit of 180º. To get technical, high power, diverging Fresnel zones aligned vertically distort into view an extra 25º of view on either side. In doing this, vision is radically distorted in the periphery, but as the eye detects only motion in that area, little clarity is lost in the process." - Dan Hsiao via Bookmarklet

pretty slick looking as well - Kyle Weller

Are these images just renderings, or has such an item actually been created? - Gabe

The transformative power of the makeover. - Mai

Great shots from a photo journalist following Obama around for over a year. My favorite is the first one I clipped here of Michelle and Barrack. - Bret Taylor via Bookmarklet

brought tears to my eyes, I don't really know that much about Obama, these pictures were a nice glimpse into his world. - amelia arapoff

Beautiful!! These really capture the essence of a great man! wow!! go vote people!! - Susan Beebe
