From the portfolio of Jesse van Dijk, some pretty sketches of a vertical city in a volcano’s crater inside the sea. Lots of other fantastic landscapes in his gallery.

“Get Smart,” which we thought was a serious series. For our bag, it was not over the top to have a guy who was so cool that he had a phone in his shoe, because the problem was in Iran, they took out the laugh track and the guy spoke in Persian. So we didn’t know it was supposed to be funny. Coming from a background where a dog could have a flashback in the middle of a serious plot and you’re not supposed to laugh, this was not over the top at all. So seeing all this stuff like “Batman,” they were never kitsch enough for us. To parody something to someone who grew up on Hindi movies, it would be like trying to parody professional wrestling.

The BBC’s news headline (it is the default live bookmark in Firefox, so that’s where I see my news items) proclaims Israelis hit by new digger attack, which made me think they were talking about some classic video game. What’s wrong with Jerusalem Killdozer sequel?
Someone needs to update Wikipedia, BTW.

Watch, man!
No, I haven’t watched it yet (although the bit I did see was cute). But look! here’s a trailer for Watchmen! No, here it is! Or here!
Maybe that’s what’s clogging the tubes. Or maybe it’s just the weekend, and my Internet doesn’t like working the weekend.
Dr. Horrible’s Singe-Along Blog is a 3-episode video thingie written by Joss Whedon and featuring some familiar faces. Because there aren’t enough supervillain musicals on the internet.
The first two episodes are up, the 3rd and final one will be posted on the 19th of July (this Saturday), and all 3 episodes will only be available for free until Sunday (the 20th), so watch now!
