This is amazing. They shoved a fibre optic camera up this woman's nose and down her throat to get these shots. Your throat looks like an alien when you're singing. So great.
Thanks, Charles V!
The Great Lucky Charms Challenge of 2009

Gardner, who I've discussed before on The Black Laser, loves pranks. Loves them. He also loves mischief making and bets with people to get them to do outrageous things. He's a good natured troublemaker, and also a complete pain in the ass sometimes. For instance, I remember one night I was at work making copies of tapes or something and he calls me.
He says, "Hey dude, will you get a tattoo with me?"
I say, "I'm at working, but I'll go with you, sure."
"No," he says, "we have to get the same tattoo."
"Fuck you," I say, "I'll go with you, but I'm sure as hell not getting a tattoo with you. What are you getting tattooed?"
"I can't tell you. It's a secret."
"Wait. You mean, you wanted me to get a matching secret tattoo with you of something you won't even reveal to me?"
"Yeah, basically."
"You're fucking nuts. But I'll still go with you."
I meet him and this girl in Washington Square Park and we head over to one of the myriad tattoo parlors in the West Village. Along the way he refused to tell me what he was getting tattooed. When we had selected a fine establishment, the girl and I waited in the waiting area and Gardner went into the back. I convinced her to tell me what he was getting at about the same moment I could see but not hear him describe it to the guy doing the ink. The guy looked at him, laughed, shook his head and went to work.
You know what he got? He got this. Even more hilarious, he went swimming before it fully healed and half the tattoo washed off. Hah!
Anyway, this was all just a preamble to the real story here. Gardner called me last year and asked me to make the most horrifying Lucky Charms based image I could think of. He had challenged a girl at work that she couldn't eat only Lucky Charms for 7 days. It doesn't sound all that bad, but if you think about it, it's terrible. I won't even eat Lucky Charms for ONE meal, much less for an entire week. What happened was epic, but don't let me ruin it for you. Instead, enjoy this video.

Because I don't have a whole lot of awesome to talk about right now, here's a pretty killer video of Giorgio Moroder playing with his Vocoder. Please note the mustache.
Enjoy!
Death by Black Hole.

As you might know, this site posts to Facebook every time I write something. Fun. Anyway, a friend of mine Matt left this comment:
Hey bro if you go past the event horizon you are fucked, whether by gravity or your inside-out crew -- doesn't matter.
That reminded me of this amazing video that describes what it would be like to be killed by a black hole. Enjoy. Science is awesome.
Wingsuit Base Jumping.
by The Wizard on Feb.09, 2010, under Thoughts
Good morning, Black Laserites! I'm not working this week, but I haven't forgotten about you. Here's an amazing video that will make your stomach drop.
The whole thing can be summed up in one quote, "At the beginning of wingsuit base jumping we were trying to get as far from the wall as possible, so basically clearing out the whole thing. And now it's getting boring so we play around."
Yeah, you read that. Jumping off the side of a mountain wearing only a jumpsuit with flying squirrel-like wings attached GOT BORING. What the fuck are they putting in the water in Norway?
This is what could have happened to my brother Charlie if he'd grown up in Japan under radically different circumstances but still played the bass guitar.

Interesting. Certainly worth thinking about. Change is a'comin'.
Thanks, Livio!
