THE VIRGIN MARY IN A GRILL CHEESE
I almost fell out of my chair when I saw this. (Thank you Kerrie) In my best info-mercial voice:

Yes you too can own the Virgin Mary in an ordinary 10 year-old grill cheese. A woman who didn't go looking for religion found the mother of Jesus in her sandwich. This Floridian sandwich-lover, feels that the Virgin Mary grill cheese needs to be out there and bless others as she blessed this lucky lady. The Virgin Mary grill cheese (although I do not know what kind of cheese it is...) can be yours on eBay for only $2000 bucks.

1985
I know I'm a product of the 80's but still that hit song from Bowling For Soup is amazing. I'm one of those people that becomes obsessed with a song and then listen to it over and over and over and over again...

Check out the video:

RAINBOW
Rainbow was a hugely popular children's show in the UK. This is an actual clip from one of their shows and the sexual innuendo is unbelievable.

I promise you, your mouth will drop.
This is part of the shows transcript:

Geoffrey (to camera): " Hello everyone, today we are talking about playing"
Bungle: "Playing with each other, Geoffrey?"
Geoffrey: "Yes Bungle, do you have a special friend that you like to play with?"
George: "Yesterday we played with our balls.
Are we going to play with our friend's balls today?"
Bungle: "Yes, and we can play with our twangers as well."
Geoffrey (to camera): Have you seen Bungles twanger?

KICK BALL CHANGE
Do you need a laugh? OK we know DUI is nothing to laugh at but...this video clip is a riot. I laughed out loud as did the bunch of folks that were watching it around my desk.

VERONICA MARS
OK so the best new TV show that you aren't watching is Veronica Mars. It's clever, well written and acted...sorta like a bit Buffy, mix in some Twin Peaks and a dash of the O.C.

It is on tonight at 9 PM on UPN.
The official web site is great and will get you caught up.

Check it out and tell me what you think.

TREEHOUSE OF HORROR
For many of us 'older' trick or treaters Halloween is all about The Simpsons episode. This coming Sunday the brilliant bloodcurdling creative minds of The Simpsons shock us yet again with the 15th annual Treehouse of Horror episode. This year, in the first of three mini-episodes, we find Ned Flanders after suffering a whack to the head receiving the power of prediction people's deaths and is shocked to discover that he will be the one to kill Homer. In the final Halloween fright-fest, Four Beheadings and a Funeral, we head to Victorian London, where Master Detective Eliza Simpson and her faithful sidekick, Dr. Bartley, attempt to catch The Muttonchop Murderer, a Jack the Ripper-esque serial killer.

And if you haven't checked out Springfield's Hall of Records at The Simpsons official site - where you can learn some secrets by peeking into your favorite residents personnel files...

FAMOUS WILLS
Not sure what it says about me, but Court TV has assembled a list of celebrity wills ranging from Princess Diana to Elvis. The famous wills are in the public domain. They are filled with fascinating tidbits, such as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis didn't leave a penny to her sister...

ELECTORAL COLLEGE MAP
PBS created a very cool interactive Electoral College Map and clear understanding how it words. Since today is Election Day (Please tell me you voted...) thought it was appropriate to list this. Lycos searches for Electoral College are up 115%.

Triumph The Insult Dog...
...after the 3rd Presidential Debate. If you haven't seen Conan O'Brian's awesome 'reporter' you are missing out on something. What is even more wild however is how Triumph ever got access to the leading political pundits following the Presidential Debate. Watch Triumph

FLY OVER YOUR HOUSE
OK this is the coolest thing we have seen in a while. This company Keyhole, just acquired by Google takes satellite images and flies you from one address to another.

It is a 7 week trial download and then you have to pay. It's worth a trial. You can lose a day playing with it.

Feel like Superman... Zoom to street level.
