Link Dump

Yes, there have been a lot of these lately. At this point I figure I should just stop apologizing for it and embrace it. So here you go, links:

  • Echo: LoadingReadyRun has been at The Escapist for a while and they can be hit or miss, but some of their more recent videos are really great stuff. Split Decision and A Stitch in Time are pretty good too.
  • Right on Cue: Ta-Nehisi Coates responds to Andy Rooney: “Rooney ends this with a jibe that notes his ignorance of Lady Gaga is fine, because kids are ignorant of Ella Fitzgerald. I suspect that he gives himself too much credit.” Heh. His notion of “Digging In The Crates” is an interesting one and I think he may be right.
  • Soldiers returning from war surprise kids, loved ones: As they note: “There is a 100% chance you will cry within 30 seconds of this video.”
  • I don’t know what the hell is going on in this video, so I am presenting it to you, without comment.
  • F**k You: Cee Lo Green’s profanity laden song is pretty great. And of course, the follow up videos have begun… Also of note, this song, which is completely unrelated, but awesome.
  • Sun Chips Bag: These videos are all over the place at this point, but this one’s pretty well executed, precisely because the guy doesn’t say anything.

That’s all for now…
