All things awesome: puppies, ping pong, robots, football, and Lost



I defy anyone to look at these dogs and tell me that they don't want a dog as a pet. Or that cats are better for that matter. Cats suck, dogs are awesome, that's all there is to it.

Incidentally, these pictures came from the site cuteoverload.com, which for some reason we were looking at in my Artificial Intelligence class. I have no idea why we were looking at this site, I wasn't really paying attention at that point. Thank you, Professor Futrelle.

In other news for random awesome stuff on line, check this out.

More awesome stuff in video form: dancing robots. This was from my professor who is teaching us to control robots with cell phones. And then use these robots to rule man kind.

Ok, now for some more coherent points:

A quick congratulations to Tony Kornheiser for being hired to call Monday Night Football next year. If you don't know, he's the white guy on Pardon The Interruption who always berates his co-host. I can only hope that Kornheiser will exist on MNF simply to yell at Joe Theisman every time he says something like "Nobody in the game of football should be called a genius. A genius is somebody like Norman Einstein." and "The team that wins this game will be the team that scores the most points."

I'm a big fan of making sports predictions, especially in places where I can point back at them and say how right I was (note: if I'm wrong with any luck no one will remember this post; but you know damn well that if I am right I am linking back to it all over the place). Anyway, we all know that the losing Super Bowl team ends up sucking the next year. So allow me to be the first to predict the fall of the Seahawks next year due mostly to the loss and/or hold out of superstar Shaun Alexander. Let me also be the first to predict the Arizona Cardinals atop the NFC West next year. Dennis Green will finally work his magic and win without any decent quarterback.

In non-football news, tonight's episode of Lost was pretty good. I really expected to see Michael come out of no where at somepoint and shoot Sawyer after he stole all the guns. Regardless, I'm very happy to see storylines with all of the old characters, I was not a fan of going weeks without Kate, Jack, Locke, or anyone else form the front of the plane. However, I am in favor of any storyline that involves Mr. Echo, just so I can here his accent (come on, you know it's awesome). Also, next week's episode looks awesome. I think when the clock gets to zero puppies run out of the jungle and that black stuff turns in to dancing robots.

See, I thought it was pretty terrible (because COME ON, Sawyer, we have SEEN this episode BEFORE) until Charlie showed up wearing his creepy hooded sweatshirt and then I started yelling at the TV, "That was twisted!" But it didn't really advance the main plotline AT ALL, which is why they better not be screwing with us with those previews (like if it turns out to be a dream sequence or something).

Also, I still do not want a dog, and I choose to ignore completely the football portion of your post.
