We all love bubble wrap. Why? Because it makes fun sounds when you pop it of course, so in keeping with the theme of bubble wrap and fun popping sounds, I bring you this glorious 4 minute video of a guy demonstrating 13 exciting techniques to pop bubble wrap.

A few of my favorites are “Bubble Mummy Masochism”, “POParty Trick” and “Pop your feelings Luke” which is a Star Wars tribute.

After watching the video, be sure to let me know your favorite popping methods in the comments and if you have some that weren’t represented in the video, share those too.

Yay bubble wrap!

Did you catch it? FOOM! Muhahahaha!!!

Silent interpretation at its best.

The video was made by MitchellRose.com with BodyVox dance company.

Just watch it already. Its funny.

Think fruity. Think refreshing.
Think a DNA scanner embedded in the lip of your bottle reading all 3 gigabytes of your base pair genetic data in a fraction of a second, fine-tuning your individual hormonal cocktail in real time using our patented Auto-Drink™ technology, and slamming a truckload of electrolytic neurotransmitter smart-drug stimulants past the blood-brain barrier to achieve maximum optimization of your soon-to-be-grateful cerebral cortex. Plus, it’s low in carbs! And with flavors ranging from Beta Carroty to Glutamate Grape, you’ll never run out of ways to quench your thirst for knowledge.

I never knew wind resistance wasd a big factor in netbook design, but I guess when you’re travelling and you keep your netbook in front of you, the less wind resistance you get the better.

Um. Anyway, that is a main selling point of he G-Five KTNO2. I don’t know if they’re serious with that, but since the specs are the same as any other netbook (1.6GHz Intel Atom, 1GB DDR2, 160GB HDD, 10.2” 1024 x 600 LCD, 2xUSB, VGA, 3G SIM slot, card reader, RJ45, Bluetooth, 1.3Mp camera), I guess anything goes in the fight to make your netbook stand out.

The state government of Illinois has recently declared that Pluto is a planet. The resolution was a way to sidestep the recent ruling of the International Astronomical Union that reclassified Pluto as a part of the Kuiper belt, removing it from the list of planets.

The specific decree reads as “RESOLVED, BY THE SENATE OF THE NINETY-SIXTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that as Pluto passes overhead through Illinois’ night skies, that it be reestablished with full planetary status, and that March 13, 2009 be declared ‘Pluto Day’ in the State of Illinois in honor of the date its discovery was announced in 1930.”

A big reason Illinois is desperately fighting for Pluto’s “planetary” status is because the man who discovered Pluto in 1930, Clyde Tombaugh, is an Illinois native. Having said that I still find it quite hilarious that whenever Pluto passes over Illinois it goes from a part of the Kuiper Belt into a full fledged planet. They should’ve also changed its name from Pluto to Schizophrenia.

For all of the efforts of record companies to stop mp3 downloads from happening sometimes they can also shoot themselves on the foot. Take for example the new album by megaband U2. The band’s No Line on The Horizon is probably one of the most anticipated albums this year and the buzz for it is just insane but it all it took was Universal Music Australia’s decision to release the album through its website two weeks ago to help proliferate the album through the net like a virus. By the time the company decided to remove the files from its site it was already too late, digital copies of the album are now being spread in various torrent sites.

I don’t think it will affect sales though. It’s too good an album to just settle for a digital copy. My preorder for the limited edition boxed set is already set.
