Death Star Manual: The Missing Page. Explains a lot. Also, funny.

I would watch this movie.

Also, does anyone know a good way to get a really high GRE score without studying? I don't think my old SAT I/II tricks are gonna work, and I don't want to break my streak of never studying for standardized tests.

Just posted on my new blogging project. Though it might appeal to readers here as well. It has graphs!

Scroll down and read the second and third customer reviews. Notice anything hilarious?

My New Blog

So I'm involved in a new blogging project: Life in Awesomeopolis. It's a collaborative blog dedicated to all things awesome. Since I pass along a fair number of awesome things to my readers here, I figured I'd share the wealth. Other writers include Chuck, Rhyno, Lord Henry, Lucy, and Barkeep (plus one person for whom I have no current pseudonym, I should fix that). I've summarized the mission statement for the new blog here.

It just launched a couple days ago, and the site is something of a beta version. Expect lots of new things there, and feel free to leave feedback and "thumbs up" on the stuff you like.

This blog will still continue, though I'll probably move some of my random link posting to Awesomeopolis. Hope you like it.

If any of you are building a time machine, don't forget this:

Happy Passover! More on that later.

Congratulations to Sheba, my youngest brother, who was just accepted to my own alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania! I'd like to open the comments section to unsolicited and potentially hilarious advice for a new pre-Freshman.

Not sure what to make of this, but I can't say I disagree with the sentiment one bit.
