The Ultimate Rejection Letter
Note: I found this here
This letter had me laughing so hard!


Herbert A. Millington
Chair-Search Committee
412A Clarkson Hall, Whitson University
College Hilla, MA 34109

Dear Professor Millington,
Thank you for your letter of March 16. After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me an assistant professor position in your department.

This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually large number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field of candidates, it is impossible for me to accept all refusals.

Despite Whitson's outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find that your rejection does not meet my needs at this time. THerefore, I will assume the position of assistant professor in your department this august. I look forwards to seeing you then.

Best of luck in rejecting future applicants.

Sincerely,
Chris L. Jensen


And now for the doodles...

This one has no meaning whatsoever, but I REALLY like the rollercoaster. I'm not sure what about it is so fascinating to me, because it's not particularly detailed or anything, but I still like it.

The following doodles are from a project a friend of mind is doing. He was bored, so he made names for potential teams for a major league ultimate association. He had drawn a few of the pictures and asked me to help. He has one of my best ones with him, for the "Blades", but I'll find out if I can borrow it for a day to be scanned in.

Flashmob video

For those who don't know, a flashmob is a group of people who meet while dressed like regular people to do something together at a given signal. Some famous examples include hundreds of people dancing to the same song on their MP3 players starting at the exact same moment (and then walking away as if it never happened), or this video here.

The translations for what the people say are:
- For the 1st and 2nd guys, they shout: "There's a tsunami!!" (tsunami da!)
- For the 3rd guy they shout: "That's the guy!!" (koitsu da!)
- Nothing for the 4th guy
- Last scene: "Watch out!! (danger)" (abunai!)

The opening of this one is brilliant, and he's pretty funny.

Funny Phylogenetic Trees, Eddie Izzard

Eddie Izzard: Definite Article
The link above goes to the Google Video version of Eddie Izzard's Definite Article show. It's what I was watching a couple days ago. Watch it!

Now here we have a neat doodle I did in biology class, while discussing phylogenetic trees. The top half is a REAL one, but the bottom is the Religious Right version.

And here's TOABN 9! And yes, that's a shameless Monty Python reference in the last panel.

Steven Wright (standup)

This one's hilarious! I've always liked Steven Wright, but he wasn't this good when he was younger, unlike George Carlin, who was amazing younger and isn't any good now.

Daily Show: Islam vs. Christianity

This is a great clip from one of my favorite episodes of the Daily Show! It's a debate to see which religion is the true one. Check it out
