On an internet overflowing with cute cat pics and videos, it takes a particularly clever approach to receive a thumbs up from me. More times than not, material in this vein are more likely to inspire me to hunt down and severely bludgeon the individual responsible for starting this revolting craze.

However, occasionally a video pops up that takes an original and inventive approach. "An Engineers Guide to Cats" is one such video that is just quirky enough to keep a person like myself, who has a low threshold for "cutesy", in stitches.

Well written, conceived, and ingeniously delivered by a duo of geeky engineers, it's well worth a watch.

It amazes me how seemingly intelligent adults can allow themselves to be so utterly brainwashed. That's their right, of course. However, when minor children are involved, and allowed to be placed in sexual situations with a 67 year old pervert, that is unacceptable.

The video below is the first of five parts. I highly recommend checking out the rest of the film. It's abit disturbing, but a fascinating watch.

This is one of the best sites I've come across for television content. The documentary selection I find particularly interesting.

This is a great market resource for writers. Cost is just $29.99 per year -- or $3.99 per month. Markets are regularly updated, which makes it more appealing than annually purchasing a hard copy at the bookstore.

This is a wonderful resource for used books I found just a few months back. I've found just about everything I've been looking for since I first ordered from them. Love it!

This is an interesting site for writers who enjoy reviewing products and services. You get a whopping $2 per submitted review.

If you're good at coming with witty one liners, Threadless is an excellent outlet for your creativity. Apart from accepting slogan ideas for shirts, they also accept submissions for designs, as well.

If big communication companies like Time Warner and AT&T get their way, the internet as we know it could cease to exist. Help support Net Neutrality. I urge you to check out the site below and find out how you can get involved in this very important issue.

For the last few years, I've dabbled in pizza making, but never managed to come up with a crust that I thought was worthy of much praise -- until I found this recipe, that is.

Warning: The pictures will make your mouth water.

Consisting of John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, and Mitch Mitchell, The Dirty Mac was assembled for the T.V. special entitled Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus, recorded on December 11, 1968. It was the first time that Lennon had performed without The Beatles.

This ill-fated concert never aired, but was released as a CD and film in 1996, I believe.

An amazing performance! What a group of musicians!
