Youtube Frenzy

Here are a bunch of mostly unconnected youtube videos I just like. They're good, in different ways.

Mike Gravel does "Helter Skelter." Cause that song isn't associated with crazy people at all.


This was his last little number. It's awesome.


Excellent April Fool's gag from Terry Jones and co.


The greatest ad ever made: Hungarian sausages!



And this is sublime and beautiful.

Hats Off to This Guy

Very believable April Fool's joke here. Bravo! I read this on a political site, went to the link, and didn't figure out it was a joke until I went to one of his links. The best part is the $10 fee for microwave use. It's that little hard-to-believe touch that paradoxically makes it that much more believable.

Cons

I like a good con artist story. Here's a pretty interesting one. Apparently, a woman disguised as a male army major conned a bunch of women out of a bunch of money over in China. The best part of this article is where the investigators become convinced that something is a bit off when they hear the fake major's "high-pitched voice."

ADDED: If this was primarily an internet scam, why did this person go around dressed up in uniform? Were the police really unsure this was a lady looks like a dude? Is ananova.com trying to fool me into thinking this is a news of the weird story, or is it really a news of the weird story? Hmmm....

A friend of mine sent this to me; it's amusing.

Another friend sent me this only an hour later.
