April 15th, 2008 · Comments
by J*Rock

Mitch Hedberg has become, quite possibly, my favorite comedian of all time. And while a lot of people know about him, I’m pretty sure that most people never really got the chance to get to know him and his unique and brilliant sense of humor. Like so many great comedians, he died way [...]

Fear and Panic in the the Skies

April 11th, 2008 · Comments
by J*Rock

Don’t worry, that’s not a photo of a meteor that’s rocketing towards our fair planet. It’s actually a high res picture -one of the first ever- of Phobos, one of the twin moons of Mars. These pictures were captured by the Mars Orbiter recently. Phobos, you may recognize as the Greek [...]

Get your Mojo back

by J*Rock

If you’ve got a Mac and a clear conscience, you’re going to thank me for finding this for you. Mojo is basically Napster 3.0. It’s a program that allows you to look at your friends’ iTunes libraries, listen to their songs. If you like one, with one click it’s downloaded into your iTunes [...]

What Is a Super Delegate?

April 5th, 2008 · Comments
by J*Rock

By now we all know that “super delegates” are going to be the ones who ultimately decide the Democratic nomination since it’s mathematically impossible – or to be more accurate, ridiculously improbable- for it to be determined in any other way. So then the question is, “who are these super delegates?”. In order [...]

Right On!

April 5th, 2008 · Comments
by J*Rock

Given that we’re producing an Obama Action Figure here (and only him), I’m clearly not in the Hillary camp. And I must confess that I don’t find her to be a particularly sympathetic character these days. But this picture takes me back to a brighter, kinder, and entirely imaginary time when me and [...]

Science, I’d Like You To Meet Art

April 4th, 2008 · Comments
by J*Rock

Once a very unlikely pairing, the fields of science and art are now more than ever like peanut butter and jelly. Thanks to regular updates from the Buckminster Fuller Institute I was tipped off to these excellent articles on some current projects that are converging these once divergent fields.
Served tastefully by our good friends [...]

More Than Meets The Eye

by J*Rock

I wouldn’t normally post an ad for a car company on the Jailbreak but this one is just too damn cool to pass on. Citroen, I tip my hat to you.

Wanderlust

by J*Rock

This is the 2D version of Bjork’s newest video. It was shot in 3D too. I don’t quite know where you can see it in 3D but here’s a link for an HD version that looks a lot prettier than the one you see here.
There’s also a good interview with Bjork and the guys [...]

It’s not that I’m obsessed with Tesla or anything…

April 3rd, 2008 · Comments
by J*Rock

I’ve made a total of twenty-two different Oddfellows now and I had to go and do research for each one of them. Now here I am putting up my second Tesla post in two days when I haven’t even put up a single story about anyone else. So what gives? Well, plain and [...]
