sort of like the funny pic thread. Of course, I don't know how to embed these things.

here is one to start, it was billed as the first 35 mm film ever taken, in San Francisco 6 days before the big earthquake.

I had to add spaces so it wouldn\'t recognize the tags. Just put [ youtube] open and closed on each side of text at end of youtube tag line to Embed.

is the tagline the web address?

just the characters after the "=" in the youtube line... ie.

Let's say you pull up a youtube video, in the http: line above it looks like this:

http://www.youtube.c...g...&playnext=1

you need the characters between the "=" and the "&" symbols, specifically:

Doing some research for ladder safety where we need to do some training with our maintenance guys, I think they'll get a kick out of this:

[DVINNY]

after further research (Google) I see that for safety reasons (hackers) its better to not have the entire url set up as an 'auto-embed'

so we will stay status quo.

Anyone else notice everything was in mirror image in that? Makes me wonder if that's what they can do to get around sampling / copyright infringement... modification to make it their own.

1. I don't know what you are talking about because I had never heard that song or seen that video before the Simpsons aired that night.

2. The Simpsons usually don't have to get around copyright infringement because it's sort of a celebrity status symbol to have your image, voice, or work featured in an episode.

[wilheldp_PE]

1) You must live in a cave if you've never heard that song before (lol, or your basement), but when the Simpsons aired it the other night it WAS the first time it had aired (the song has been around for several months now, the video is brand new).

2)I think he was referring to the copyright infringement of posting it on youtube.

I listen to NPR the great majority of the time in the car, so I don't have to hear crap like that.

Ah...gotcha.

reminds me of the Honda commercial "The Cog". I'll see if I can post a link later. If you've never seen it. pretty amazing and the whole thing was done without any computer graphics.

That's funny...I heard the exact opposite, that it was done only with computer graphics.

I've found snopes to be pretty reliable, and it's got to be quite a hoax if there are several videos/shows documenting the making of the commercial.
Snopes - The Cog

Have you ever seen the Honda ad called "The Musical Highway"? It shows a car traveling over a road with "rumble strips" that plays "the william tell overture while the car traverses it. There was a whole sarticle in a concrete cyutting magazine by the contractor that cut the grooves. Pretyy neat stuff.

There's a cute Target commercial that uses this catchy 70's tune...and it made me remember where I'd first heard it - Does anyone remember this TV special that aired in '74? I remember it distinctly because we had to watch it in elementary school...now I'm amazed at the names that appeared in it.

You just hope that when you got to the top you had EXACTLY what you needed to do the job, wouldn't want to go up and down many times to get the phillips head that you forgot...

Ok, so the wifey-wife and I got this from Netflix yesterday and we watched it last night. We were shocked at how bad it wasn't. In fact, some parts are just outright hilarious because of the main character's facial expressions and mannerisms. I wouldn't rank it as "it was so bad that it was good." It is a low budget film, but the acting was actually pretty damn good. I give it a solid B-.

Oh, did you know that nuclear power plant cooling towers bellow black smoke?
