Lost Season Finale Tonight!
If the guy that plays Ben Linus (Michael Emerson) is any indication, it's gonna be good:"Ours is a show that specializes in big shock endings, but I think season five... None of the other shock endings left me wondering how the show goes on. We have two kinds of huge shocks at the end of this one. Each one alone would be enough to keep an audience eating its own soul for the whole hiatus, but with two, I don't know what you can do with that." – Michael Emerson
Trent Reznor is a funny guy
I think Mr. Reznor is slowly trying to transition from musician to stand-up comedian.First, he released a fake album on April Fool's Day. Since then he's Twittered about the failures of Chris Cornell, and now Prince and Rivers Cuomo have become his latest victims:
"I'm not Prince or Rivers Cuomo who brags about having hundreds of great songs. And to that I would say, Prince, if you have a hundred great songs or a thousand, how about picking a few and putting them on your record that you've put out because your last several have sucked. Same for you, Rivers. I say that constructively, you know. I might be happy and engaged, but I can still be a prick. "
-- Trent Reznor (via the NIN forum via TwentyFourBit)
But seriously folks! Who's from out of town?
John Lennon Exhibit To Feature Bloodstained Clothes
A new John Lennon exhibition, due to open in New York later, will feature a paper bag containing the bloody clothes from the night he was shot dead.The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Annex display also features the piano from his apartment and handwritten lyrics.
His widow Yoko Ono, who has created the display, said the clothes were "hard to include" and she feared she "might be criticised as well" for including them.
My brother worked on this exhibit, so I'm particularly excited for him!
Better Place Unveils an Electric Car Battery Swap Station
Better Place unveiled its battery swap system today and said the $500,000 gadget can replace a dead battery and get you back on the road in less time than it takes to fill your gas tank.The prototype revealed in Japan is the first of what the Silicon Valley startup promises will be countless automated battery exchange stations that will one day dot our cities. The technology will make it possible to travel long distances in an EV without the hassle of stopping to recharge your battery.
It's all happening!
Psycho Donuts
Psycho Donuts is a new mental illness-themed donut shop.The Bipolar's toppings, for instance, are half nuts, half coconut shavings, while Massive Head Trauma's red jelly filling oozes from the side (see photo above).
The store itself comes with nurses, a padded cell and "group therapy" area.
Of course, with all things good, there comes controversy. Fortunately, no one really cares.
