More Things That Make Me Laugh

Two quick ones:

1) Matt Taibbi Eviscerating Thomas Friedman, Again
In 2005, Matt Taibbi wrote the definitive review of Thomas Friedman's best-selling yet unreadable shitpile The World is Flat. This week, Taibbi reviews Friedman's latest brain-dead missive in impressively negative fashion.

2) Runnin' With The Songsmith
For reasons I don't care to look up, the isolated vocal track for Van Halen's Runnin' with the Devil is widely available. Also, for reasons I don't quite undertand, Microsoft has a product called Songsmith that generates a musical track for any given vocals. Thus we have this glorious marriage of Diamond Dave and cold programming logic.
