If Christmas music hasn’t irritated you sufficiently, I suggest checking out the songs from the Vib Ribbon soundtrack.

These seven songs are supposedly made by a J-Pop band called “Laugh and Beats”. Although I can’t find any reference to the band outside of this soundtrack, I’m sure they really exist, though they probably went into hiding after the game’s release. The music itself can be described as what would happen if you dosed a couple hundred giggly Japanese girls with forty pounds of CIA-grade MDMA, forced them to watch 48 hours’ worth of Loony Toons cartoons, then let them loose in Moby‘s recording studio.

Make a website for your grandfather’s eggnog recipe. Graph the hits to your site during the holidays.

Remember, kids: If Mr. Walken likes eggnog, you should like it too.

Concerned about buying a music CD that won’t play in your home PC or car stereo due to copy protection? Check Fatchuck’s Corrupt CD List before you buy a CD. Also, be sure to purchase new CDs with a credit card, so if they are “defective”, you can return them and contest the charges with your creditor.

Wal-Mart’s got balls.

Large sunspots, as well as those of moderate size, could easily have been viewed using pinhole projection by some ancient observers, had they been so inclined.

I’m not convinced that tactics such as this properly convey PETA’s points regarding cruelty to animals.

Being cruel to animals makes cute blonde actresses want to pose nude for web photos? Hold it a sec.. let me fetch my snowshoes and a club.

Nanotech is so 90s. The sci-fi hype for the new millenium is utility fog.

This looks pretty cool. Any of you Windows users wanna try it out? A little search / calculator gizmo that lives directly in the Windows taskbar. And it’s GPLed.

From the depths of obscure FTP sites, I’ve discovered Lacuna Coil. I’m quite impressed by their gothy-metal goodness. Take a listen via their MP3.com page.

Yikes! Here‘s how you make a fully-functional Beretta 9mm out of Legos!
