I’ve said this a thousand times before: On the Wheels of Solid Steel is the best CD/DVD combo I’ve ever seen, period. When I heard about it I had to order from England, but it looks like they sell it on Amazon now. Do yourself a favor and get it, it’s one of the few mixed albums I can stand to listen to on it’s own (without video), and the bonus DVD is one of the few I’ve ever found worth watching more than once – hell, I’d have bought it separately if they’d decided to market it that way.

The two vids above are really well edited and fun, but I saved the best for last. These are live performances from his 2005 Japan tour:

More than words…
This is the funniest video I’ve seen in ages!
Many thanks to reader Nevin for sending it.

I’m really curious as to what happened afterward…
UPDATE: Oh. Duh. Maybe the 100mph bicycle should have tipped me off.
Noah takes a photo of himself everyday for 6 years
“January 11, 2000 – July 31, 2006.
2356 Days.
A work in progress.”
I recommend watching this video alone in a quiet room, with the lights out, as you count down the days to seeing your beloved wife again after four months apart, and even though the pain from the root canal last week is not quite yet faded, you are chewing on fresh sushi. Then, the music is truly sublime.
SPF 16 (Thai Commercial)
It’s comforting to know there are some familiar points in the society into which I shall plunge: Slapstick, vampires, hot chicks on TV.
On the other hand, sometimes it is disturbing to see the whitening effect of various cosmetics pursued by so many in Thailand. You know what, though? I attribute this less to the perceived beauty of pale skin than to the fickle nature of the female species – you know, wanting straight hair when they have perms and vice versa. It’s a vicious cycle, but it’s also only natural, I guess.

Algorithm March – With Ninja and Everyone Together
Is this the new Macarena?
I can’t claim to watch Pythagoras Switch (?????????) on a regular basis or anything, but this is some damn fine educational television programming for 6- to 8-year olds.
