We have what are you reading, and what music are you listening to, so here's another thread, which asks: what delicious little video time-wasters have you come across recently? 
Another good one:

The BBC animal voiceovers just kill me.
Especially the "Nighttime, Daytime" bird.
Spent hours recently watching George Carlin clips. Gawd, I miss that guy.

I heard about this on CBC radio one this afternoon. And I ask myself, why didn't I ever think of this?

Watch in HD, and full screen. Absolutely awesome. |

Spectacular! I see 'em here occasionally, but never quite as defined as this, and never with the music!

The 3 year old daughter of my friend recently knocked me out re: number of rings of the saturn (I didn't know the number  ).
Disgraced, I turned to yotube for some re-education: 
I do find the explanation on their origin posted in one of the comments very realistic:
The rings are formed by trash cans and garbage bags put into orbit by Saturnian houswives

So, you've found a nice quiet spot on the beach, when suddenly....
For the motorcycle lovers out there....
Today's lesson, boys and girls, is on "horsepower"....

Reminds me of one summer in Metaponto in Italy. Lovely white beach, few people... we are enjoying the sun the warm the infinite blue sea... Suddenly the air force jets are flying overhead, breaking the sound barrier. BOOM. BOOM. BOOM.
No wonder there were so few people at the beach  |

OK, one more....
I'm not even much of a computer geek and I was howling with laughter all through this one.
