The Legend of Neil

If you've never played/seen/heard of The Legend of Zelda for the NES, then it's probably not worth watching this.

<a href="http://www.atom.com/funny_videos/legend_of_neil_1/" target="_blank">Legend of Neil, Episode 1</a>

If you've played it, then you have to watch this plus Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4

And the winner of the worst writing of 2008 is ...

Garrison Spik, a 41-year-old communications director and writer, took top honors in San Jose State University's 26th annual Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest with this opening sentence to a nonexistent novel:

"Theirs was a New York love, a checkered taxi ride burning rubber, and like the city their passion was open 24/7, steam rising from their bodies like slick streets exhaling warm, moist, white breath through manhole covers stamped 'Forged by DeLaney Bros., Piscataway, N.J."'

Your Own True Self

I'm fascinated by this. I bet the filmmaker's could just sit there and talk to these gentlemen all day long.

Your Own True Self (video)

On Youtube, in 5 parts: the 1993 documentary by Paul Athanas & Jay Rooney about residents of a Boston nursing home who became the stars of David Greenberger's wonderful Duplex Planet magazine. The film is a gently funny series of observations on our cultural fear of old age, documented in the course of interviews with 12 residents of the all-male Duplex facility in Jamaica Plain, NY MA.

Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5. You can purchase this on DVD too. (Thanks, Coop!)
