This is one of the best commercials I’ve ever seen.

I don’t get how she is able to do this and not be charged with a felony…
It’s back! Weekly Cool Links! And it only took 2 months for it to return. Sorry about that, I’m sure no one missed it, since no one comments on here anyway.
During the last couple weeks we’ve been doing a bunch of yard work, getting the yards in as good a shape as we can this year. Other than that, we haven’t really done much. So I guess I will just post the links…
Cool Music
I can’t remember if I shared this band yet on here, but Rock Sugar is an awesome band. The lead singer was the guy that did the voice of Wacko on Animaniacs.
Food Stuff
Four articles from Serious Eats that I thought were great to share. How to Salt Food, 6 Things Every Griller Needs, Top 10 Tips For Making Better Burgers, and Mastering the Art of Burger Blending. I’m very interested in getting a grinder for our KitchenAid Mixer and blending my own meat! If you are interested in finding a local fruit and veggie or even meat CSA you will want to check out both Local Harvest and Eat Wild. Too bad there aren’t really any close by meat CSAs in SoCal. I did recently discover that we have a local grass fed beef rancher 5 Bar Beef, we are going to try some of their ground beef tonight for burgers. If you want to know more about beef cuts, this poster is great.
Beer Stuff
Make had this cool weekend project for a portable homebrew cooler dispenser, that I might give a try when we have a party. Talking about beer, Floating Sheep has some maps about bars and areas where there are more bars than grocery stores.
Funny Stuff
When you are buying a home, the most overlooked requirement is Zombie Protection! Well OC Reader has you covered if you are looking for a home in Orange County.
Cool Sports
If you are looking to buy some tickets for a game or even a concert, Seat Geek has you covered in helping you find things for the best price available. They forecast if it’s a smart time to buy of if the price will be going down and suggest you to wait if you are buying the tickets on sites like StubHub, Tickets Now, or Ticket Network. Plus they will graph out the ticket locations for you.
Cool Sites
CNN Money’s 20 best Money Sites. Mensa’s 50 top websites. Groundspeak, the team behind Geocaching.org are slowly making their way into the geolocation game with Whibbit, looking forward to see how it compares to Foursquare and GoWalla.
More Cool Stuff
Probably should have been in the food section but I love that this site will locate Where is My Milk From. Science has discovered that as the use of porn goes up the amount of sex crimes goes down! Take that feminists! After you are done watching some porn, check out these awesome airports, I’m not sure if I want to land at any of those…
And last but not least, videos.
I think I will show this one during my Defensive Driving training classes I do.
Photoshop CS5 Content Aware Fill, it’s amazing what photoshop can do nowadays.
Sir Mix a Lot like But-terfingers
Awesome TV Theme duet
The ad in question.
So why won’t they air this Lane Bryant ad, but air just about any Victoria’s Secret ad? My guess is that they don’t like real women with real bodies to be in bras and panties! (NO NOES!)
I mean come on they are airing this VS “The Nakeds” ad right now and it’s not any less ‘risque’.
By the way, Weekly Cool Links will return later today!

So my friend Ned over at A Futile Mistake challenged those that read his blog to come up with their top 25 albums of all time list. I made a couple rules for my list so I didn’t pull out too much hair.
I didn’t include the greats (Beatles, Rolling Stones, Queen, etc, because although I love many of their albums, they don’t hit me at the same emotional level as these I’ve done. I could easily included them and made things even more difficult, but I decided to stick with those albums that really made an emotional connection with me, which is why most the albums are from the mid ’90s to the present. I also tried not to include duplicate artists but for one particular band that was impossible. So without further ado here it is.
(The list order would probably be different if you asked me to do it again, but most of the albums would remain the same)
1 Jimmy Eat World – Bleed American
2 Counting Crows – August and Everything After
3 Toad the Wet Sprocket – P.S.: a Toad Retrospective (gotta cheat with a best of, but if you make me choose an album it’s going to be Pale)
4 Jimmy Eat World – Chase Thise Light
5 The Format – Inventions and Lullabies
6 The Postal Service – Give Up
7 Jimmy Eat World – Clarity
8 Gin Blossoms – New Miserable Experience (although my favorite songs are on Congratulations I’m Sorry, this album really helped me through a serious time in my life)
9 Dashboard Confessional – A Mark – a Mission, a Brand, a Scar
10 All American Rejects – Move Along
11 Weezer – Blue Album
12 Plain White T’s – Stop (before they became trendy)
13 Offspring – Smash (introduced me to so many more bands that aren’t even on this list)
14 The Get Up Kids – Guilt Show (or New Amsterdams – Worse For the Wear)
15 Death Cab For Cutie – Plans (for I Will Follow You Into The Dark.)
16 Mae – Destination Beautiful
17 All – Pummel
18 Juliana Theory – Understand This is a Dream (although if you ask me tomorrow it will probably be Emotion is Dead)
19 Something Corporate – Leaving Through the Window
20 Snow Patrol – Run
21 Depeche Mode – Singles 86-98
22 Athenaeum – Radiance
23 Matchbox Twenty – Yourself or Someone Like You
24 Mxpx – Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo
25 Jellyfish – Spilt Milk (although Bellybutton kicks ass as well, Spilt Milk was the first JF album I had, these guys were amazing)
Just missed the cut. They could sneak up on the list if I did it again. And some lesser know albums that I really liked.
Dishwalla – Opaline
Copeland – Beneath Medicine Tree
Goo Goo Dolls – Dizzy Up the Girl
Fountains of Wayne – Fountains of Wayne
Relient K - Mmhmm
Jet – Get Born
Hootie and the Blowfish – Cracked Rear View
It was hard keeping bands like the Lemonheads, Smashing Pumpkins, Bad Religion, and Matthew Sweet on this list, but none of their full albums every really hit me as great albums, just great songs.
