A fantastic list.  This guy is probably my favorite, but the cow is pretty solid as well.

Pun Stores

The 50 Best Pun Stores is a great collection of seriously brilliantly named stores.  If I saw a store named “The Merchant of Tennis” I’d pretty much go in.  Even though I don’t really play tennis.

Really got to watch this commercial.  One of the better ones I’ve seen recently.

Prison Thriller

Wow.  I’m a huge fan of any Thriller remake.  But this one takes the cake (at least for now).  I don’t know what it is, but it just kills me.  Maybe it is all the background dancers, maybe its the guy in drag playing the girlfriend role, maybe it’s the fact it’s in a prison yard.  I don’t know.  I just know that it rocks.

The Greatest Invention Ever.

Really, this is brilliant. I don’t want to give too much away, so I’m not telling you about this stunning invention.

I want one.  I want to build one.  I want to use one so badly.

Invest in Beer

“If you had purchased $1,000 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49. If you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling refund, you would have $214.”  (via and original)

Real Life Super Mario Bros. Re-enactment.  If this didn’t win the talent show, then my faith in talent shows is shattered.
