Jake & Amir

Have you seen Jake and Amir? It’s a comedy series with character development comprised of short absurd scenes that I really enjoy watching. Ive seen a few scenes here and there but last week, I actually found myself kicked back and watching the archives because I just wanted to. I was like, WTF am I doing?

I’ve pasted in an episode below, though I think you have to flip through several of the short 1-2 min scenes before making a call. Basically, Jake and Amir work at the same office and are thus coincidentally destined to work together. Amir is quite the hand-full and Jake is able to put up with it.

Veronica Belmont Has Been Freed!

World rejoice, Veronica Belmont is no longer behind bars in the Mahalo offices of Jason Calacanis. Today Veronica posted that she is moving on. 

The reason why I’m excited about this is because I think Veronica is awesome and that her stint at Mahalo has been hampering her potential.

A video on how to make grilled cheese sandwiches might be more Jason’s speed, but Veronica is a young bundle of depth just waiting to explode.

In a a couple of emails to Veronica today, she wouldn’t reveal what she has in store next, but it sounds like we’ll hear about it soon. I’m thinking this is her year to take the world by storm.

Re: After YouTube turned every single one of its home page video links into hiddenRick Astley killers, following an LA Times exclusive interview with the contemporary Rick, following a thourogh playing-out online (and off), Rickrolling will now begin to permeate the mainstream contiousness over the next several months, hitting local news tv stations and bingo parlors all accross the world. Look out Amazon, Rick is back (Amazon.com Sales Rank: #1,997 in Music), and gaining.

Yahoo 9 Ends Run

Whew, no offense to anyone there, but Yahoo 9 was really the worst online video show I have ever seen. I couldn’t even bare to write about it before.

Have you ever looked at something and thought to yourself “Hm, that looks kinda cheap and fake”. Even if it was or not? Well I don’t think I have ever been blown away so strong by such a feeling.

Probably the worst quality was that Maria Sansone would always look up at her over the shoulder graphics as if they were there and then she would talk to them. But she was never quite looking in the right direction.
