Pipeline Posse

Cool little surfing doc "pod" from Current TV.

I don't think I actually need to comment on this.

No clue what the title says but the video speaks for itself.

Mr. T performs miracle revival of comatose boy

He tells Britain's Empire magazine, "His family put toys around him and one of them was a Mr. T doll. And whenever my name came up, the boy moved his arm."

"Somebody told the doctors I was in town, so they called me down there. I closed the curtains and prayed. Then, as I was walking down the hall, the kid suddenly came out of the coma and hollered out."

"That was my supernatural moment."

Read Mr. T brought boy out of coma.

Time to Pretend

Blake over at Cinema is Dope sent me a link to this trippy video from an unidentified band. (Unidentified to me, anyway. Feel free to clue me in. Update: if I had been paying attention to the first few frames of the video, I would have learned that the band is called MGMT.) It comes from Court 13, the production company that made Death to the Tinman.

It reminds me a lot of those wacky musical numbers that Raquel Welch did for her self-titled bio-film, Raquel!, but with more video effects and less John Wayne.

Watch Time to Pretend.

Off-Broadway Shows Buoyed by Stagehand Strike

Interesting story on NPR's Morning Edition this morning about the stagehand strike that has shut down most of the big Broadway shows in New York. Because off-Broadway shows use non-union stagehands, they remain in operation and have been enjoying a boom in business from tourists who still want to see a show while in town.
