Taco Bell Wedding

This is the couple Brandi was talking about who made a run for the altar while they we're running for the border.

Rubik's Boob

Most of us who were alive in the 80's had a Rubik's Cube. Those of us who also had a life in the 80's gave up on the stupid puzzle after an hour, moonwalked over to the arcade and played some Pac Man never to think about Rubik's Cube again. Not Grahm Parker. Grahm spent the last 26 years trying to solve Rubik's Cube and this week he finally did it! I don't know what he should be more proud of; obsessing over something 25.5 years longer than the rest of the world, or taking two and a half decades to do something a 6-year-old can do in 37 seconds while wearing his Spiderman pajamas.

Congratulations, Grahm! And we'll see you in 2035 when you finally figure out where Waldo is!

Walt Disney wasn't just an antisemite; he hated women too!

This is an actual rejection letter a woman received after applying for a job as a cartoonist for Walt Disney in the 50's.

Kind of ironic that the letterhead is of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. That chick had to stay in the cabin, do the dishes and make the 7 beds while the men went out and had fun working in a mine. You've come a long way... baby!

SNL highlight from Neil Patrick Harris

The SNL website didn't have this Digital Short available for download, so check it out on YouTube before they take it down. (Update - they took it down. But NBC finally posted it on their server, so new video is below). I thought this was the highlight of the show - NPH playing an emotional version of the "Doogie Howser, M.D." theme song.
