The Grape Fall

Watch this video of the lame reactions of the anchors as one of the people on a remote shoot get injured.

Tell Stewie what to do. It’s like the Subserviant Chicken but with Stewie.

Top 200 Sci-Fi Books

One of the better lists that I have seen.
Also from that page is the top 100 sci-fi films, top 100 sci-fi tv shows, and top 100 sci-fi short stories.

The Most Artistic Subway Stations in the World

I guess Boston’s South Station’s rugged “Gateway to Hell” theme didn’t make the cut.

Sorry Gotta Go

Sorrygottago.com has a bunch of soundclips that you can use when on the phone with annoying people. I especially liked the telemarketers section.

How Maraschino Cherries Are Made

In case you were wondering.

The first step in this rather involved process is to preserve the cherries by soaking them in a brine mixture that consists of water, sulfer dioxide (as a preservative), and calcium chloride (to enhance firmness). This process will also result in drawing out most of the color and sugar from the cherries. The cherries will remain in this mixture for about five weeks.

In the next step, the yellowish-white cherries are soaked for about five days in a heated liquid sugar mixture to re-introduce just the right amount of sweetness. After that is achieved, artificial coloring is added, as well as artificial flavor.
