    Free MP3s on Amazon.com

    I’ve been downloading some free songs from Amazon.com and I found this band called Of Montreal. They’re pretty good and they remind me of They Might Be Giants when they were poorer and better. Of Montreal is actually probably weirder than TMBG though. You could derive this just from the names of their songs, such as “Iras Brief Life as a Spider” and “Advice From A Divorced Gentleman To His Bachelor Friend Considering Marriage.” Yeah. Anyway, check out their free MP3s at Amazon.com. I should probably a CD of theirs, but I haven’t bought a CD in like, 5 years.

    Threadless.com T-Shirts

    Threadless.com is this website with cool T-shirts, which is my primary choice of clothing, with pants being optional. People submit their designs to the site, and then the community votes for which designs should be printed and sold. Pretty cool. Right now they’re having a sale for $10 shirts! Yeah! I just ordered this darth vader gardening shirt. Hopefully it’ll still be rad after the hype of Episode III is gone.

    Tall or Not?

    Tall or Not? Is a little flash application that shows you how tall (or short) you are with respect to other well known celebrities such as Ingrid Bergman. Who knew Davy Jones was so short?

    Neverlate 7-day alarm clock!

    Okay, faithful reader(s), you gotta help me make a decision. I have stupid classes this semester that start at stupid times, and I hate resetting my alarm clock every damn night. I was looking for an alarm clock that you could set for every weekday, and apparently one just came out called the Neverlate 7-day alarm clock. It looks pretty awesome, and it’s $30 to avoid resetting that damn alarm every damn night. The only thing is, it just came out, so there’s no reviews, and it’s American made, which means it’ll probably break before a week has actually passed. Well, I think I might get it anyway, but what do you, my reader(s) think?
