This week’s installment of the Jodi Cat-Sh!t Art Project (JCSAP): “Playing the Second Hole” (or “Stuck in a Sand Crap”).

Japanese ghost chick.
Like ‘The Grudge’ with photographs.
New meaning: “dark room.”

A good ghost story.
The Thai version was better.
Now neck cramps scare me.

Check out this hilarious clip of a reporter unknowingly getting high while he does a story on the marijuana and cocaine burning behind him!

[update from Heywood]: According to you a YouTube comment, this is a clip from a British TV comedy called ‘Drop the Dead Donkey‘. Still; pretty freakin funny.

Bubblicious Ink’d: perhaps the first time a candy dyes your tongue blue on purpose and then brags about it.

And plus it has that cool urban spelling which the kids rave about: Ink’d.

To drum up excitement for the upcoming Olympic games, and to tap into the audiences that watch Lost and still remember (enjoy?) playing Myst, a new online game called The Lost Ring emerged in late February. The New York Times recently featured an interesting article about the hidden sponsorship of the game, players around the world, and the relatively cheap cost of orchestrating worldwide phenomena. (Interestingly enough, the article was written on April Fools Day, so it’s unclear whether anyone took the review seriously).

Here’s the trailer that started it all:

The game apparently started with 50 bloggers who knew all those sleepless nights spent online had finally paid off, but has now gotten big enough that there are wikis, podcasts and players collaborating around the world to piece together the story and pick up hidden clues left in cities around the world. The game will culminate during the opening ceremony of the Olympics with some sort of tie-in. You can catch up and join in the fun at The Lost Ring Wiki.

As the saying goes, “A picture is worth a thousand words.”

And those words are:
• Jerry Springer
• “Actually, this is our second child.”
• “Will the real Slim Shady please sit down?!”
• “We cut Sex-Ed class.”
• Future congressman of Arkansas.
• “We got a ‘3-for-the-price-of-2′ special on these photos.”
• 30-year-old grandma.
• “I look just like Demí.”
• “Let’s bring the baby to prom!”

One has to wonder how NationalBanana.com got Cuba Gooding Jr. to star in this hilarious spoof Cialis commercial. Then again, it’s not that crazy…things haven’t been going great for CGJ after Jerry Maguire’s success, as he’s taken on parts in a slew of Razzie-worthy movies such as Rat Race, Snow Dogs, Boat Trip, Radio, A Dairy Tale, Norbit, and Daddy Day Camp, and now stars as the buffoon in Hanes commercials with Michael Jordan. Nevertheless, enjoy this clip:

This month I mixed together Depeche Mode’s “John The Revelator” with the overplayed but catchy “Get Low” by Flo Rida. The result: John The Revelator Gets Low. Alternate titles included “Flo Rida The Revelator” and “Depeche Does The Limbo.” Enjoy.

This year, the new up-and-coming (North American) bands are coming from two places: Portland and Toronto.

Best described as a glorious lovechild of the Zombies and the Beatles, Portland’s The Lark is one of the bands to keep your eyes on this year. I recommend you have a listen to their Muxtape sampler; my personal favorites are: “Come Lately,” “Everyday,” and “Always Right.” If I had to predict the one song that will launch them into greater notoriety, it would be “Always Right.”

The Lark are still relatively fresh and are trying to gain a fair cruising altitude - if you like their sampler, you can help them out by requesting them for the upcoming Portland PDX Pop Now! 2008 music festival.

You’ll be able to say that you’re so indie cool because you knew about them way back in 2008. But we already think you’re cool because you’re reading Blogadilla.

So frozen yogurt had its golden era in the early 80’s - when jogging and aerobicising and ABBA were all the rage - but fell into mediocrity and disinterest by the end of the decade.

In 2005, L.A.’s Pinkberry resurrected frozen yogurt for a new generation by catering to health-conscious hipsters: organic frozen yogurt, made on the premises, and mixed with a range of interesting toppings such as kiwi or Cap’n Crunch. In L.A. (and later New York), Pinkberry became the place to be seen.

The rest of the nation is finally catching up . . . organic frozen yogurt joints are cropping up throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. On any given Friday night in Palo Alto, Fraîche frozen yogurt is standing-room-only.

Folks, if you’re ever in need of some groovy music and/or video or are looking to expand your musical horizons, particularly on a slow working day, check out my boy Max Abelson’s Super Groovy Music/Video Spectacular (aka “Max Abelson and His Funktified Flying Fortress of Fantastic Videos of Music”– these phrases are copyrighted, folks!).

Each day, Max and his gang of Oompa Loompas over at Tumblr pour through the series of tubes that is the Internet and find awesome, old media content that I personally could never find on my own. The programming schedule roughly breaks down as follows:

• Mondays: ’60s
• Tuesdays: ’70s
• Wednesdays: ’80s
• Thursday: ’90s
• Friday: ’00s
• Saturday/Sunday: ????

Today, for instance, check out the throwback to Gilberto Gil, from 1967. The video quality may not always be great, but the material Max comes up with certainly is.

Since the movie “Be Kind Rewind” came out in theaters last month, ‘Sweded‘ videos have become all the rage - YouTube is flush with ‘Sweded’ flicks.

For those of you not familiar with the concept of ‘Sweding’: it is a homemade remake of a movie, often involving a lot of cardboard.

Here are some of the more spectacular ‘Sweded’ films (some of these were made prior to the movie “Be Kind Rewind,” but can still be considered ‘Sweded’):

Star Wars • Tron • Jurassic Park • Terminator 2 • Back to the Future • 300 • I Am Legend • Top Gun • Point Break • Home Alone • Groundhog Day • The Silence of the Lambs • Alien • Total Recall • The Lord of the Rings • Mad Max (by the Neistat Bros) • Kill Bill (part 1) • The Shining • Goldfinger

Pope Benedict XVI signed an official decree yesterday, that Easter Sunday will be celebrated a second time this year. This is not the first time that the Catholic church has done this - in 1521 and in 1790, Easter was also celebrated twice. This year, Easter will be celebrated on March 23rd and on April 6th - perhaps why many stores continue to carry Easter items for over a week after “Easter I.”

This odd “Second Easter Sunday” is based on a technicality regarding how Easter Sunday is determined by the Catholic church - the closest Sunday to the full Moon closest to the Spring Equinox: this year (like 1521 and 1790), the full Moons before and after the Equinox are precisely the same number of days, hours, and minutes away from the Equinox.

A Bonus: a second round of chocolate bunnies.

2006: As some of you may remember, Chevy trucks thought they’d create a cyber-hip-20-somethings ad campaign where you could make your own Chevy Tahoe commercial . . . and it backfired in a major way.

2008: BMW has decided to walk into the punch. Get a load of BMW’s cyber-virtual-interweb-hipster ad campaign for their new BMW 1 Series: draw on their car with Facebook Graffiti, for a chance to win mediocre prizes.

And the trolls have obliged.

I planned on submitting this fine Photoshop project below, until I discovered that you have to use stupid Facebook Graffiti to do all of your artwork. Dammit!
