By Crom, this is funny!

N-K-I-T-H?

There is a new 8 episode miniseries in the works, starring some original cast members of Kids in the Hall, plus some new ones.

It's called, Death Comes to Town.

Check out more words about it from the local paper of the town in which it will be shot. (If you want to.)

Literal Music Video

The song describes what's happening. This is amazing.

[edit: I just need to repeat that I think this is really really funny.]

"WOOOOOOO."

I guess you'll do

Kendra found this one and passed it along:

A Plea for Your Attention

Hey peeps-- check out my site redesign. It's very business-like and accommodates LaTeX for math-lovin' geeks like me. Woohoo!

Now to post more often....

Farewell to Pushing Daisies

Tomorrow night, the final episode, ever, of Pushing Daisies airs.

*sigh*

Television Without Pity lists their favorite moments from the 22 episodes. (Spoilers, if you haven't seen the show.)

I'll miss the songs and the colors and the Alive Again Avenger and the gumshoe and the pies and the drinking and the deaths and so many more things about this show.

Where are the Wild Things?

"giant yellow eyes" by Clay Sisk

About Terrible Yellow Eyes:

What I've wanted to do for sometime is make a collection of paintings inspired by Where the Wild Things Are as a tribute and celebration of the book. And now with the release of the film later in the year, the world of Wild Things has opened even wider.

My goal for this project is really just that, expressing of my love for the story. None of the art has been done for any profit but has all been created out of admiration for Maurice Sendak and Where the Wild Things Are.

Over the coming weeks and months I'll display a growing collection of works created by invited contributing artists and myself. We share a love and admiration for Sendak's work and the pieces we present here are done as a tribute to his life and legacy.

Simply put, like a visual love letter to the book, with Terrible Yellow Eyes I am seeking to celebrate and promote the original masterwork by Maurice Sendak in the best way I know how -- with pictures.
