I loved this video about Hatch Show Print, one of the oldest letterpress print shops in the U.S. Their work is very neat and you get to see alot of it in the video.
Update: After taking a quick look at their posters for sale, I’d really like to buy approximately…. a ton of them.

This “robot learning to flip a pancake” video has made the rounds, and I suspected it would be cool. What I did not foresee, however, is that I would laugh until I was crying every time the robot messed up. Maybe I’m a teensy bit behind on my sleep and that’s what I’m cracking up over a pancake robot but wow. Great stuff.

"So it wasn’t until my third day of work that I finally decided to slip past Conan—hunched over his desk, busily doodling on that day’s script—and join the other writers behind the couch. As I settled into my spot among three veteran writers and prayed for invisibility, Conan glanced over, sized us up, and mock sneered, “Look at you four, standing there. You’re like a Mount Rushmore of incompetence.” Then he chuckled and returned to his cartooning. It was a quality put-down, and I was honestly overjoyed to be included in it."
— Todd Levin, in a fantastic article about his 8-month writing stint with The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien. The article is an absolute must-read for any Conan fans.
"Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can: all of them make me laugh."

An ice cream truck for dogs? First of all, I already adore that big brown dog. Also, I feel as if a story about an ice cream truck for dogs will be made into a TERRIBLE movie which will inevitably star The Rock. (Working Title: “Ice Cream Bone”) (Via)

This was attached to a birthday package my sister sent me. Yes, she’s a total baller. I know what you’re thinking and no, you can’t adopt and/or marry her. But you’re perfectly welcome to join us while she and I watch National Treasure together and quote all the lines. It’s a “can’t-miss” experience.
