The fake “War on Christmas”
2009-11-18 22:50:00 “The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.” I never understood that line, because most people believe in the devil. Most people believe in lots of things that aren’t real. Like angels and natural beauty and fat-free cookies and the War on Christmas. I almost hesitate to say that the ...
The Chrome OS Beta is a Fake, Don’t Download
2009-10-28 17:54:00 If you read this like right now and head to Twitter and search for “Chrome OS”, you’ll find over a 100 tweets getting updated by the second that Google has released a Beta Version of its Chrome OS. The link that you see on the image leads to a Google Sites page. The which has just four pages immediately seems like a shady part of the web for Chrome OS to be made available. The Download page says this: Chrome OS is at the beta stage. You can download the free virtual appliance of Chrome OS here: And gives links to a couple of torrent files with other file details like the size. What’s easy to miss though is a tiny bit of line which says: Chrome OS is not related to Google. Service provided by SUSE Studio. See the license. So there you go, despite what people might be tweeting, Chrome OS is not out. And what you have instead is a Linux software made out of Suse. So don’t download it. Unless of course you want to have some fun like the guys at Dow...

Zach Braff is not dead, fake CNN page being shared on Twitter
2009-10-12 23:40:00 Zach Braff is not dead. "Zach Braff" is currently a Twitter trending topic, and according to the tweets, it sounds like someone created a fake CNN page showing the headline "Beloved Scrubs actor found dead in his home." We have seen nothing on CNN or AP that would indicate that this is true. I found an image of the fake CNN page here: http://www.chrisbox.com/c/dump/-p/braff.html. I am not certain that this is the source. A photograph of the URL is below.UPDATE: RedEye blogger Show Patrol has confirmed information from an ABC rep.

Pictures that look Fake
2009-09-16 23:30:00 I am usually more interested in taking very close up pictures of small electronic items. If you are interested in close up photography have a look at this Instructable that bloomautomatic put together for that. On the other hand I have never tried to take these type of cool outdoor pictures but I think next time I am out snapping some pictures I will have to keep my eye open for some cool placement trickery like in these pictures! "This shot was taken at the Perito Moreno glacier in the Argentine region of Patagonia. The 250 km2 (97 sq mi) ice formation is an important tourist attraction, and the sheets of frozen fresh water clearly offer ample opportunity for a little playfulness with visual perspective." "This touching shot makes aiming for the top not such a fanciful dream after all. The most famous landmark on the Parisian landscape is the perfect prop to make this little girl seem like a giant standing some 324 m (1,063 ft) tall. The low camera angle and ...

With the man in the middle gaining in years, I'd start expecting to see Lovie move to something of a rotation with this corps.David Haugh mentions in his column that he'd like to see the team get Matt Forte going.

Matt Leinart's Twitter account: if fake, should be removed
2009-08-05 18:08:00 Earlier today I wrote a blog post regarding "Matt Leinart's tweet" where he supposedly wrote that Arizona Cardinals Quarterback Kurt Warner was "kinda old". The tweet was written on February 1st during the time of the Super Bowl where the Cards took on the Steelers in Tampa. Obviously a story like this has some legs, so it carries. But now the claim in some quarters is the Twitter account is fake. The specific contact represents Arizona Cardinals Media Relations, which is an outrage. That the Cardinals knew this account existed and allowed it to remain active is terrible and a massive blunder. In a new media environment "media relations" does not stop at contacting the press, it also encompasses online content. For the Arizona Cardinals to not understand this is not good for its players or its organization. Shifting the blame toward me will not remove them of their responsibility. And not that I don't believe it's not fake but my concern is if Leinart and the Cardinals...
Matt Leinart thinks Kurt Warner's "old" - a Twitter fake
2009-08-05 11:12:00 More at Zennie62.com | Follow me on Twitter! | Get my widget! | Visit YouTube | Visit UShow.com Matt Leinart at the 2006 NFL Draft: Special Note: It's said that Matt Leinart does not Twitter, but this account I report on below with his tweets on it back in February is still up and active. I wrote a new blog post about Matt's Twitter problem and the importance of online reputation management. Below is what I originally reported. It remains as a cautionary example of how not to handle one's digital identity. Hopefully Leinart takes the steps to remove the Twitter account, as should have been done months ago. I happened to see the New York Times article focusing on NFL Coaches prohibiting players from using Twitter in meetings and during training camp. I had to chuckle because the Twitter frenzy is already alive with funny and controversial tweets all over the place. Just ask Arizona Cardinals quarterback Matt Leinart, who tweeted this (as of this writing): Locked a...

Re-Kindle Your Fake Blogs?
2009-05-15 14:07:00 In Dennis Leary's Hulu TV commercial, his alien persona critiques us mere mortals of sharing our "bliggety blogs" and our "Facey-spaceys" and our "Tweety pages" with all our "bookwormy anti-Boobtubey friends."

I just found out abotu Manta -- a flying roller coaster that's one of a kind, a flying roller coaster that takes riders through underwater worlds of floor-to-ceiling aquariums filled with seldom-seen fish and rays, sea dragons, schools of fish, octopi, and over 300 Rays -- letting you walk through all that and then rid the Giant Manta Ray ride on steel rails that spin, fall, glide, soar, and race you through, all while lying face down so that you're flying.And SeaWorld's not just opening that ride, they're giving me a chance to skip to the front of the line, VIP style.

Love? Death and something?And in advertising, it has to be sex, children or animals.I liked the brief fake musical in Monsters Inc, when Mike is pretending to practice for it, so that he doesn't get caught out for something else.Sorry.

The Best Fake Musical In A Real Movie.
2009-04-02 16:48:00 What is new?That's the question I'll be exploring, off and on, in the month of April, having come to the depressing conclusion that art -- books, movies, sports, more -- has given up on new things and is simply repackaging old things for us, over and over and over, because we (and by we I mean you) simply won't buy/watch/eat/listen to anything that doesn't have the patina of the familiar on it.This isn't (ironically?) a new complaint on my part. I noted a long time ago that there were, in terms of human existence, really only four new things in the 20th century. I've mentioned before that some television shows seem to be simply repackaged versions of earlier television shows and also get by simply by "parodying" other television shows and movies (and "parodying" is in quotes because to be a parody, don't you have to be making a point about the original, a point of some kind, instead of simply plugging your own characters into it?)And while I'm not against some artistic comfo...
