So nice to know there are Jackalopes around...

Let me sum up:
Pixar's Boundin'







Let me splain:
I'm in an Oscar mood. And this short came to mind (you can get 'em all on iTunes, I hear tell). I doubt they'll ever top this one for me. For enjoyment or tears.

I'm also geeking out because yesterday, I got to make Pixar-themey food for an Oscar party...(the flavors are "Sweet" and "Assaulty.")

Clone High

Let me sum up:
Clone High...let's say the last 30 seconds



Let me splain:

Clone High is one of those shows that I hesitate to recommend to folks because it was so very awesome and yet so very short lived. That makes the last 30 second of the last episode doubly sad. And I'm not going to post those last 30 seconds because you otta go buy the whole darn thing and watch it start to finish.

Here's the theme song though, for the uninitiated:

Sad Centaurs

Let me sum up:
The lonely, blue centaurs finally get some play...



Let me splain:
Sometimes, when you're a lady centaur, and you don't get quite as whored-up as the other lady centaurs, it takes you a while to find a nice boy.

Happy Valentine's Day!

P.S. Incidentally, the centaur scenes originally included a small, black centaur polishing the ladies' hooves and weaving flowers into their tails. In the later 60's re-release, Disney had enough sense to artfully zoom in on the hot, pale centaurs for these scenes, but for a while actually denied that the decidedly un-PC character had ever existed. Oh, Disney.

Silly Willy Tears, Narf!

Let me sum up:
Pinky and the Brain Christmas





And more...since I can't find the whole ending in one clip...



Let me splain:
Sorry...I'm a few months late on this one. But I didn't want to wait until next year. You remember this awesomeness? Yeah, I bet you do. This episode rivals O'Henry for tear-wrenching holiday spirit. You know they have this business on dvd these days? That's right, nerds. Netflix, post haste!
