Feist on Sesame Street

I can never pass an opportunity to celebrate the success of a fellow member of my home and native land, and this video of Feist kicking off the 39th season of Sesame Street qualifies.
The past 12 months have seen Feist win several Juno awards, appear on Jimmy Kimmel, SNL, Letterman, Colbert Report, lend her voice to the iPod mini commercial, and provided to 'theme music' to the announcement of Bell's new Lightbox Film Festival Tower before every film screened at the Toronto International Film Festival.
And, here, as the cherry on top.... Feist performing "1-2-3-4" on Sesame Street.

... And a 1, 2, 3 ,4:

"He's just Chilling"

The internet is full of crap, right? Well, every once in a while you stumble upon something (or, more accurately, a buddy sends you something) that actually makes you go, 'hmmm' and/or 'hahaha' and/or 'what? whoa!'.
And this video below is no exception.
The car changing lanes a few feet behind the 'subject', the running dialogue of the passengers, and the incredible arrival of the BEST truck, and best passengers of said truck, I've ever seen at the 0:45 mark, make this one of the best clips I've seen on interwebs since, well, uh, Afroninja?

Bingo Bango Bongo and I bring you, "He's just chilling."





(for the love of all that is good and holy in this cyber-world, drop me a damn comment - sheesh!)

Happy Friday

Here at Nizzleville we've been calling this clip "the rattled cage". We're quite confident that it's self-explanatory but just couldn't resist adding a 2 cents or two.

This video clip encapsulates all that is beautiful in the world. Tight pants, frilly sleeves on a preposterous shirt and a 'kick too high'. The gentleman flails about the stage will all the grace of a swan, high-kicking his way into HIStory. His awesome '720' on his ass is probably the best piece of choreography we have ever seen.
Finally, in attempt to prove just how Manly he is he rocks the, now infamous, "kick to high", much to the chagrin of his fragile skull.

So with no further ado, we bring you "the kick too high" / "the rattled cage". Enjoy and happy "Friday the 13th" (which it is not).

A Gift From Heaven Above

You know how you never forget where you were when something happened in your life that you later realized changed the way you viewed the world? Regardless of how old or young you are/were you know that things will just never be the same. Well, I recently had one of those moments and I now know that my life will never be the same - the way I view the world has changed forever.

I am speaking, of course, of my recent discovery of the best text-to-speech website ever... I was reading one of my favorite blogs (X-Entertainment) when Matt used this site to teach us all how to pronounce some random actor's name from the film Congo. Upon my arrival at this site I knew that my life had been altered, permanently.

Quickly I scrambled to see what I could make the translator robot say (oh, did I fail to mention that there's a little dude's head who says anything you type?) OK, so it's the furthest thing from being anything that could even loosely be considered cutting edge, but I love it and I know you will to.

So, the first thing I did, obviously, was make my new, perfectly coiffed friend say (what else?), "Boonie, boonie, boonie" about 20 times which, much to my delight sounds exactly like this. WOW!!! It truly is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard/seen. But what happened next is, well, indescribable, in fact it's so indescribable I'm not even going to try:

Italian!!! In my wildest dreams I could have never imagine that "Boonie" would give me so much delight when being spoke quickly, by a cyber-face that can only be described as looking like unbathed Kramer rocking some Richard Greeco circa 1988 coiffure.

Korean! Are you kidding me? There's no 'p' in 'boonie', but apparently in Korea my good pal Boonie would be called "Poonie"!! Unpelievaple !

Ole!!!


et, oui, aussi dans la language d'amour. Brilliant! I mean, honestly, what could be more fun than a Chris Cocker wannabe with a french accent chanting everyone's favorite word over and over again - it practically sounds like a chant you'd hear at one of those crazy european football (i.e. soccer) matches.

If you've managed to get this far I commend you, however I have a hunch that most of you got distracted with the text-to-speech and never bothered returning to read the exciting conclusion to this article - and I don't blame you.

Anyway, if anyone actually reads this line, please send me a note below and I'll see to it that you're sent a "Free Admission" pass to the CN Tower from 1984 - the same ones that stayed on my father's dresser since that March Break back in 1984 where we never made it to the, then, word's tallest free-standing structure... "Free standing structure"? What's up with that anyway? What the hell's a free-standing structure????? Oh well, with over 900 towers currently being erected in DuBai that are on average 8,000 feet taller than the CN Tower, I think I'm beating a bit of a dead horse here, or dead tower as the case may be.

Until next time, netizens, fare ye well !
