The card trick starts about 1:40 into the video. I love this card trick, and it amazes me even though I know how it’s done. I have always wanted to be good at card tricks, but I can never remember them, and haven’t put it the time to learn all the fake shuffles well enough to pull them off so smoothly.

Tegan and Sara released their video for “Northshore” today. It’s one of my favorite songs off their latest album, but don’t ask me which one is Tegan and which one is Sara. I can never for the life of me tell them apart.

It’s all your pseudoscience and nonsense in one simple table. It’s pretty sad that so much nonsense is out there. It’s even sadder all the people that believe in it, and all the people making money off of them. If you believe in any of this stuff…well…you shouldn’t.

A month ago I posted the awesome Pavement cover by Motion City Soundtrack. Now Rise Against covers Nirvana’s “Sliver” for the A.V. Club. I’m not a huge Rise Against fan, but you gotta love the Nirvana cover.

The news is full of idiot sports stars doing stupid things. We need more news stores of the ones doing great things. We lost of of those greats today.

When I was a kid, and much taller than my brother, I use to pretend I was Manute Bol when I blocked his shots. Those were good time. Now my little brother towers over me, but I will never forget those days pretending I was Manute Bol.
