The North American House Hippo
Easliy, One of my favorite commercials of all time!
"It's night time in a kitchen just like yours; all is quiet, or is it?"
"The North American house hippo is found throughout Canada and the Eastern United States. House hippos are very timid creatures and they are rarely seen, but they will defend their territory if provoked. They come out at night to search for food, water, and materials for their nests."

Ah… just watch the video

Funny story on Gun Regulation
First of all - Yes I know the story isn't real, and I only mention this so poeple don't send me emails saying "It's a hoax!" Although General Cosgrove is really a person in the army in Austrailia there is no evidence that this interview noted below every actually happened. However, if you do have an mp3 of the audio, I'd love to hear it!
...General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio recently. Read his reply to the lady who interviewed him concerning guns and children. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you have to love this! This is one of the best comeback lines of all time.
In a portion of an ABC radio interview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military Headquarters.

10 Ways to Suck at Programming
From Donnie Garvich Blog:
I recently inherited a web app from a dirty, nasty, stinking contractor that claimed to be a competent enough programmer to be left alone to get things done. Unfortunately, we took him at his word. Functionally, most of the web app seemed to work at first glance. However, once the client took over the reigns and actually started using it things went downhill fast. The contractor disappeared after payment (die reputation DIE!) and I was left to try and get things working properly and performing up to snuff while the client limped along with what they had been given.
I decided to document a few of the things that I found wrong along the way. These are really just things that every good programmer should already know to avoid… but obviously some people need to be reminded (or taught).

TomTom strikes back with Darth Vader voice pack (video) -- Engadget
From Engadget Blog:
We guess TomTom was listening when we said it had to respond to Nokia's Own Voice app for custom turn-by-turn navigation instructions, as the Dutch company has announced a new Darth Vader voice pack. Following in the footsteps of such luminaries as Homer Simpson and Burt Reynolds, the Sith Lord has contributed his vocal stylings to the cause of guiding the lost and confused down the right path. Though it wasn't without hiccups -- check out the video after the break for the recording session -- the pack is now complete and ready for download, provided you have $13 handy to smooth the transaction. Yoda, C3PO and Han Solo packs are set to follow in the coming months. May the farce be with you
