Asides

 

Instead of tights, how about… jeans? Or literally anything else.

Gay or not, College Humor made their point.

 

John McCain’s botched attempt yesterday to say “Ahmadinejad”. BBC says you supposed to say it this way:

“Today’s pronunciation is Iranian President Mahmoud AHMADINEJAD (sometimes also spelt AHMADINEZHAD). Our recommendation is mah-MOOD ah-mad-in-uh-ZHAAD (-h is pronounced in ‘Mahmoud’ and in ‘Ahmadinejad’) based on the advice of the BBC Persian Monitoring team.”

The following video is a parody of “I Will Survive” that mentions calculus and a bunch of stuff a mathematics genius can pretty much relate to. Not me, but still, I enjoyed it.

 

Don’t be put off achieving your destiny, even if you have experienced failure in your life. This video mentions well known people who had failed, but kept pressing on until they became successful.

Famous Failures

Failures are part of my life. So I guess I’m going to be successful after all.

 

Tons of cool ways to use a Mac to the song of “Again & Again” by the Bird & the Bee

Mac Music Video - Again and Again

Again again! Pretty cool.

 

Some little kid is running around and generally being annoying while this band is performing for a crowd. The tuba player in the back right doesn’t put up with that kind of crap.

Little Kid vs Tuba Player

Never piss a tuba player, he’ll trip your kid. What a mean thing to do! But I laughed anyway. And it was synchronized with the music too.

 

A piece of really old news but I thought the following paragraph’s a little funny.

Beginning in 2003, PeopleSoft battled with Oracle over control of the PeopleSoft company. In June 2003, Oracle made a $7 billion bid ($19.50/share) in a hostile corporate takeover attempt. In February 2004, Oracle increased their bid to approximately $9.4 billion ($26/share), a 33% increase; this offer was also rejected forthwith by PeopleSoft’s board of directors. Later that month, the U.S. Department of Justice filed suit to block Oracle, on the grounds that the acquisition would break anti-trust laws; however, in September 2004, the suit was rejected by a U.S. Federal judge, who found that the Justice Department had not proven its anti-trust case; in October, the same decision was handed down by the European Commission.
