The amazing colour changing card trick

Richard Wiseman is an interesting guy. I highly recommend his book Quirkology on quirky phenomoma. This is a classic youtube video, if anything can be said to be a classic in that relatively new medium. Be sure to watch it to the end. It isn't what you think it is....

Epic Emotional | Liquid Cinema - Aeterna

This music was used in a Mercedes commercial, the Sam Harris Waking Up podcast as well as others.

I've been chatting with a cow orker on and off for about 5 years

Interesting hobby. I can't give you his name, of course, because it is still illegal in several states as well as the District of Columbia.

Unaired 'All in the Family' pilot (1968): Justice for All

I think this is pretty close to the actual pilot later, but of course, other than Archie & Edith, the cast is different and the house looks different. The family is called Justice (not Bunker)



A second pilot: Those were the days (1969) was also not picked up



Interesting to see these embryonic efforts to produce this show.

All in the Family was a remake of the British (far harsher and less sentimental) Till Death us do Part.



Well, they don't make them like they used to.

About Ron Obvious

I got the nickname Ron Obvious because -- in addition to being a huge Python fan -- my name really is Ron and I used to start sentences with \"Obviously\" a lot. Obviously, that\'s no longer a problem.
