It's about time I posted some of the little things I've found on the internet last week. First comes this blog I found. Basicly the person who runs it gives out blank postcards for people to write down a secret on and then mail it back anonymously. It's an interesting project in both art and human behavior.
Alan already mentioned this in a previous comment, but I had it down to comment on, so I put it in a post. I don't know what it's like inside. I drove past it once (on the job interview I had in State College). It didn't seem like much more than you're standard hole-in-the-wall bar. Before someone buys it, they should ask, if a drive-thru strip club is such a great idea, why hasn't a second one been opened. Especially one where the temperature doesn't regularly drop down below freezing for three months out of the year.
Staying in the adult topic area, this story answers the question on what could be more annoying than some of the new music ringtones available. I'm actually shocked that it hasn't been available in the United States yet. Could mobile carriers in the United States be getting standards? More likely they're afraid that the backlash against them would more than cancel out the new sales. It's just a matter of time before one carrier starts offering them and most of the others will likely follow suit. Considering we live in a world where there have been instances of people watching porn while riding in cars, I don't doubt that there will be people who won't hesitate in getting them. You could add them to "taking call in movie theatres" and the about-to-be-legal "cellphones on airplanes" as why people should have to be liscensed to use cellphones and have the threat of liscense suspensions held above them to force them to learn proper etiquette.
And now for one of my favorite topics: commercials. This column from Michael Hiestand talks about a new advertising campaign for golf clubs that parodies those annoying erectile dysfunction drugs. The commercial can be found on the ad campaign's website: www.trajectiledysfunction.com. The URL says it all.
