  • Lukewarm Links 14

    I already wrote one post tonight so why not another.  If you missed the other one here it is: My Favorite Comedians.
    Last night I watched and listened to the Wisconsin basketball game.  They beat Duke.  It was a very impressive game.  I think the one of the fun things I took away from that game was that I saw the owner of the shoe store where I shop sitting behind the Badgers' bench.  So random, I know, but when a guy takes time to stock his store with shoes in my size you recognize him.
    And I apologize, there be lists in these links.

    #1.  Have you ever wondered how your band got it's name?  Well here is a list of the stories behind how 12 bands got their name.  I still haven't figured out how Mookie Blaylock influenced the name Pearl Jam.

    #2.  A lot of people are struggling in this economy yet they still want to have a good time.  Here is a handy guide about how you can enjoy a strip club on $30.  Honestly I think the article is a hoax and horrible but then what do I know.

    #3.  Here's a list of 5 seriously messed up movie plots.  I am shocked that Old Boy did not make the list or Ichii the Killer.

    #4.  Do you watch TV?  Hopefully you watch good TV and not these shows that were the 10 worst of the decade.

    #5.  I love Google Street.  I have often been surprised that I haven't found much nefarious activities when I view the street.  Well someone has went to painstaking efforts to make a collection of prostitutes found on Google Streets, too bad they didn't include the addresses.  Here's a great example of something random found in Google street, apparently they don't know what deer look like in Canada.

    #6.  Have you ever wondered what L.A. would look like if there were no people?  Well here is your chance to see what that would look like.  Even without all the people it still looks polluted as all hell.

    #7.  Here is a list of actors who turned down huge roles on TV.  You know, it's hard to imagine Paul Giamanti as Michael Scott or Paul Schaffer as George Costanza.

    #8.  Because I am a map nerd, here is a map of the 250 best movies of all time, color coordinated as to genre.

    #9.  Even though this site is for what to do when tumblr is down, I think it is applicable to Xanga as of late.  Keep clicking, some are truly funny.

    #10.  I know some of you hate these lists but they backed up in my bookmark section and I want to get rid of them.  Anyway here is a list of some strange high school mascots.  True story:  I coached football against one of those schools.

    #11.  I know some of you really dig Judd Apatow movies.  I like some of his work.  Thanks for B-Money for bringing this to my attention, here is a chart of Apatow productions casting.  It's amazing how some of those guys are in almost everything.

    #12.  I love those church sign generators.  Well here is a site of many different sign generators.  Thanks B-Money.

    #13.  The rule with this site is that you have to be drunk and then write haikus.  That is why it is called Drunken Haiku.

    #14.  Do you have facebook?  Be careful not to post anything stupid or it may make this list of embarassing facebook posts.

    #15.  I can't believe there are some famous people who became famous by accident.  Here are seven that were that lucky. It's funny how getting drunk gave Mel Gibson his big break and also basically ended his career.

    I hope you enjoyed.
