  • Steve Sansweet, "head of fan relations", at Lucasfilm wrote, what was once my bible. He got to "unveil" the title of the 3rd Star Wars movie at Comic-Con 04 by wearing the above t-shirt . George Lucas had rather failed to keep the secret last month. You can preorder the t-shirt, and customise it to read "Revenge of the SHIT", which is undoubtedly what the movie will finally be.
  • Apparently is really does take more calories to digest celery than you get from eating it. According to this list all sorts of fruit and veg are negatively calorific. I don't believe for a second that either beetroot or pineapple should be on the list. After all those were actually staple foods in Poland and Hawaii respectively.
  • The lyrics to Tenacious D - Marijuanaville didn't seem to be available online (until now), they need preserving for posterity.
  • It isn't April 1st, but the story about spectacles that could be dismantled and used as chopsticks is definitely for fools only. No-one wants wasabi and a whiff of saba behind the ears.
  • RAWK! (via)
  • You know you won't be able to resist now, but seriously, consider this a warning, DON'T QUESTION THE MONKEY!!!
  • Wordcount uses the 100,000,000 words of the Britsh National Corpus to gives you the ranked frequency of usage of all words and names. Sadly "blog" and "starbucks" aren't in there yet, but you can discover if your name is more popular than "mcdonalds" or "syllogism".
  • Starbucks Musical Chairs: party game, flash mob, and political protest in one.
