‘Sex Panther’ to be Defictionalized by the guy who brought you Brawndo!
From the New York Times:
A graphic designer with very particular pop-culture tastes, Hottelet has started a business devoted to bringing to life certain products from movies. His business is called Omni Consumer Products, a name borrowed from the fictional megacorporation in “Robocop.” In addition to Brawndo, Omni has acquired from Paramount the license to market Sex Panther, a made-up cologne from the Will Ferrell vehicle “Anchorman”.
Sixty percent of the time, it works every time.
Of course, should you decide to wear Sex Panther when it goes to market, beware the consequences.

Jim Henson - Kermit Learns Visual Thinking from Harry the Hipster
The remake from 1966 is cool, too.
I’m sorry, I don’t remember where I saw this, but thank you and via you.

I know I’m a little late, but the Sandwich Day episode of 30 Rock was the best. Also, I eat like Liz.
I eat like Liz too, Ksen. It struck a chord the way she sort of examines the sandwich and turns it slightly to go in at the best angle, and you know she won’t remember that sandwich 15 seconds from now.
Tuvan Throat Singing
The real deal, gang. None of that fake crap I was doing on YLNT Ep. 4, which was frankly a disservice to the art form.
Also, check out this kid throat sing ‘Amazing Grace’. For more information on Tuvan throat singing, watch the incredible documentary, Genghis Blues.

“David Taylor” (the missing iPhone ringtone) FOUND!
September of last year, I called out the fact that the one acceptable non-musical ringtone I’d heard from the iPhone was the one on the commercial, and that it was criminally unavailable as an actual pre-installed ringtone. (I dubbed it the “David Taylor” because that’s who the disembodied iPhone hands seemed to be taking most of their calls from.)
This morning, TUAW links to someone who’s discovered that if you’ve installed iLife ‘08, the ringtone has been hidden there on your system, and you’ve had no idea all this time.
There are instructions for finding the “David Taylor” and getting it on your phone. David Taylor, your dulcet tones have made me so very happy.
