Linkage

A couple of things I bookmarked for whatever reason the past couple of days.

• The Black Oven - "Immaculate confections succumbed to northern darkness."

This looks like a blog in its early stages; delicious death-metal flavored pastries via our Nordic overlords. Seriously.

• Dethklok Busts - via GameArtisans.org

I wish I knew how to do this stuff. I don't know what I'd do with that kind of knowledge, of course, but still ... bragging rights count for something, right?

• Grand Theft Auto 4 / New York City comparison shots

I haven't picked up the game (yet), but this is pretty impressive even if you're not a gamer. Liberty City landmarks vs. their real-life inspirations. Cool stuff.

• Manny Being Manny

You've seen this, right? Under the video display, click on "Ramirez's amazing catch - Watch" for a larger display.


This is why Manny's worth every single penny he's paid. Watch the fan in the stands after the catch. Awesome. Wait for the replay, too, for a better view.

• RetroSabotage

Classic video games, not quite the way you remember them. Give them time, especially the Pac Man ones, for the twist. What if the ghost realizes he's a ghost, for instance? Can you play Tetris on two boards at the same time? What if you try to CONTAIN a breakout instead of tearing down the walls?
