Reliance on natural resources are bad. That tanker that tanked recently could be
leaking until 2006. Great excuse for Bush to really win that "war with Iraq" though - cause we're in such desperate need of oil. C'mon Hydrogen cars... we need you!

Keeping with my nerdly links of the day, apparently there is a
new videogame coming out that requires you to convert real money into "Project Entropia Dollars" to buy items in the game - none of this imaginary crap anymore, you want a new pair of winged boots, you're paying for them. The interesting part is that there will be items in the game (treasure chests, etc) that will actually earn you money for playing... my money will be that this concept will flop, but it's an interesting idea none-the-less.

Check the December 6th entry over at
Life Through A Lens. The final three pictures make me drool they are so nice but they are all salivatingly good.

Woah,
Duncan coming with the amazing
monitor look. Dual LCD's for a little over 2k?! Rad. I wish the resolution recommended was a little bit higher, but it's dual LCD's!

Read the domain name of
this site as if it were a mother shaking her finger at an unruly child. Pretty cool flash presentation tho.. and a not so bad message either. Our country is definetly nuts. Link via
Kurt.

New trailer for
X2 - the X-Men sequel. Decent teaser.. shows alot of action with a few suggestions at what the plot may be. Looks pretty cool but I will hold strong that Halle Berry as Storm is a poor poor casting choice. She looks the part, but somehow cheeses it up too much (yea, that's right.. cheeses it up too much for a comic book adaptation film).

Yet another link from
DiK is
Mr. Jago. The style is difficult to describe as it feels modern or futuristic but doesn't have that super refined sharp edge to it, it's somewhat disorganized and almost sloppy (but on purpose mind you).

Check
In Design We Trust - the "Search and Destroy Din Font" piece in the People section is great. Lots of other nice works but that one stands out for me.

Cute-sy and twisted. Just the way it should be.
Friends With You has an innocent look but there's something devious lurking in there. Check out the shop and the gallery for a bunch of well made projects - alot of which are adorable and dangerous.

Yah! Our government has said it will use
nuclear attacks in a retaliation against Iraq or other hostile countries in response to a chemical or biological attack. Greeeeaat. So if
they have nukes, and
we have nukes.. whats to stop us from blowing the living hell out of each other? Certainly not the will of the people. More evidence of the US playing schoolyard bully... gotta love it.

Interesting article on
Shigeru Miyamoto, the man credited with bringing videogames to the level of popularity that they have now. He created Donkey Kong, Super Mario Bros, and The Legend of Zelda... but the article poses the question - are those games too cute for the growing up audience of today?

I just went through this entire
Interactive Promo for
Life Of Pi and while alot of it looks really good, I have no clue what the book is really about. A guy gets thrown off a boat, dreams about lowering the apprehension of animals towards humans, wake up back in his life raft near an island and receives 35% off on the book about his journey. Weird.

Watch the trailer for
Bruce Almighty. A movie about Jim Carrey being bestowed with the power of God for one week. I hate to admit it, but something about his aloof nature really amuses me (i.e. see keyboard shot from trailer). It will obviously be a total fluff movie but should be alright.

Two links to round out the day -
HUGA and the cute yet sinister styles of
Luuk Bode. Both ganked directly from the easily accessible
NewsToday.

Ahh, leave it to
Dolan to come through with the links. I was trying to think of
They Rule earlier.. and he provided me with the answer. Thanks.
