Oh my god, this is hilarious. It’s not quite as funny as Lazy Sunday was, but it’s still pretty damn good.

Basically, it’s Mark Feuerstein (from Caroline in the City) and Adam Stein saw the original on SNL and decided to make their own. They got some friends to shoot the video and produce it, and that’s pretty much the end of it. Definitely worth watching at least once :-)

Earlier tonight I added a new photo to my Flickr photos. I was doing some editing and ended up looking through the pictures I had previously posted and noticed that two of them had comments (which I was completely unaware of). Supposedly, there’s a message that’s supposed to show up on my Flickr page telling me there are new comments, but I never saw it (and that could be because it they were posted 2 weeks ago). Not good.

I went through my notification settings and there was nothing about comment notifications. It turns out that you can subscribe to an RSS feed of your recent activity (for up to the last 30 days). I subscribed, and presto, the comments were there.

Anyway… hopefully this’ll help someone else that runs into the same problem.

So I guess I called it right. Super Bowl XL is over and the Steelers beat the Seahawks 21-10. Congrats Neal.

So I’m a total dork, sue me. This morning I ran a sim of Super Bowl XL on EA Sports’ Madden ’06. I tried to set it up as similar as I could to what the actual game will be… All-Madden difficulty, 15 minute quarters, the latest rosters, played in Detroit with Pittsburgh as the home team (but wearing their away jerseys), etc..

The result was a total blowout; Steelers: 54, Seahawks: 14. After looking over the stats of the game, I think it was a little one-sided; Seattle’s quarterback Matt Hasselbeck threw 13 interceptions in the game… 10 in the first half (hah). So… not too realistic. If he throws for 13 interceptions today, I think he’ll be flipping burgers instead of playing quarterback next season :-)

My prediction for the real game? Pittsburgh: 27, Seattle: 24

By the way, the EA guys ran the sim a few days ago and the Steelers came out on top 24-19.

I just finished getting Mint up and running. So far, it looks pretty slick and there are a ton of Peppers (plugins) around that record all kind of crazy stats. Once it’s been up and running for a while and actually starts collecting some data, I’ll post more about it.
