Scene From Nim’s Island

// February 15th, 2010 // No Comments » // Life

We made a boat and the kids got into proper attire and acted out the scene from “Nim’s Island” where Alex Rover (the character) tells Alex Rover (the author) that he’s not going to help her anymore and she’s on her own.

Flight of the Conchords

// June 20th, 2007 // No Comments » // Life

Recently I heard an NPR interview with Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement, the pair who compose the folk/pop/comedy duo called “Flight of the Conchords“.

At first it reminded me of the guys who were always singing the Greek chorus narrative bridges in There’s Something About Mary. But as I listened I realized this was much, much funnier.

They have a show on HBO which recently premiered.

If you play the NPR interview, at least listen until you hear the “What’s The Matter With This World” song. Hilarious.

Star Trek Web Analytics

I can barely stop laughing long enough to write this post.

It was only a matter of time before somebody put some real effort to analyzing what has become a widely accepted pop culture premise among Trekkies that red-shirted crew members stood little chance of surviving a beam-down with Kirk.

Finally, we have some solid Star Trek Web Analytics that supports it.
