Today's Mighty Oak


Yesterday’s writing was the podcast page, if you haven’t noticed, I finally go that up and running!

So, reading through all the news that came across my feed today, the world is a mess.  More than normal.  That probably won’t change in the near future.  So instead today, I’m just going to leave you with something to make you happy.  A youtuber who I love put together this amazing medley of music from Super Mario.  This is also a great reminder how astonishingly beautiful the music from Super Mario Galaxy is:

 



Nike comes through with another awesome ad:

Want to have the Dr. Horrible remote control on your phone?  Just use this bookmark.

Oh, American’s aren’t so smart about our own country.  But I think we knew that.

Copyranter discusses an anti-war ad, but really, I think it does better promoting the need for a better VA:

 

High school students in Boston were working to get rid of their abstinence-only sex education, because they were fed up with not knowing anything…and having to learn everything from porn.  Awesome, and sad, story.

This is pretty awesome, Super Mario Bros. 1-1, in first person perspective:

And super awesome, on Ash Wednesday, if you can’t make it to church, just grab this QR code instead.  I love augmented reality!

 



Another update for everyone, but first some quick site news.  I tried installing an extension that will work with GoodReads, but so far, it has not worked yet.  I’ll keep working on it, see if I c an get it to work.  Also, Joomla 1.6 was just released, I’ll probably be upgrading sometime in the next month or so.  It will probably take me a little bit to get everything back to normal, so the site will probably be down for a weekend or so.

Would you like to play the first Super Mario Bros. as Link, or Samus, or Mega Man?  Check it out here.

Here’s some retro/cold war style video game posters, I like this one a lot:

Is there really an Olive Garden cooking school in Tuscany?  Click through to find out

Darth Vader had a couple bloopers when he recorded his voice for Tom Tom GPS:

The Brooklyn Superhero Supply Co. is closed, but will reopen on February 1.  Can’t wait!

Cool, if gruesome ads from Copyranter about not talking on your cellphone as you drive, as well as ads for an independent film festival (also gross, but I find it kind of funny).  Copyranter also takes on the hypocrisy of plastic water bottles, and some awesome condom ads.

And finally, here’s some commentary about the wrappers at Burger King.

That’s it for now, but I should be back again soon with more, have a great one!
