very funny video

Very well done and very funny, although I still think that Megan wins overall for having been able to do improvisational interpretive dance to a reading of an Oracle database manual (without knowing the text).
And two from the Daily Show:
Faith-Based Accounting (otherwise known as "supply-side economics")
No Money Mo' Problems

on Wired News, by Quinn Norton: Squid Labs: Suckers for Novelty
While my friend Jeff and I were in college, we talked about starting a...something...which would be whatever we wanted it to be at the time: this week we'd be working on practical applications of AI, next week perhaps solar sails, the week after that we'd be recording tracks for our next album. (The name of the band was to be "Infrasonic Trepidation" (tagline: "Because only your fears are bassless" [sic]) and the first album title threatened to be "Acoustically Correct". Not like anyone cares at this point, but we thought it was funny.)
Anyway, these folks sound like they've achieved something closer to that than I would have thought anyone could do from scratch. Cool stuff.
(Kudos also to Quinn for her first Wired article. Go Quinn! :) )

This particular application is clearly silly, but the overall concept is very intriguing indeed.
