A Double-Double Feature

Of 404 pages.

Some of the best 404 "Paqe Not Found" pages I've seen are on IMDb.com. They're cleverly done, with quotes - sometimes paraphrased -  from different movies, a random one each time you click on a broken link. Here are some of the funniest ones: (I kept refreshing the page to get the different ones I particularly liked)

moiety


moiety moi·e·ty [moi-i-tee] noun, plural moi·e·ties.

1. a half.
2. an indefinite portion, part, or share.
3. Anthropology: one of two units into which a tribe or community is divided on the basis of unilineal descent.


I'd say this country has become moieties.  I know which moiety where I'd live.

Took a Tumble in Tumblr

Here's the 404 page from Tumblr;  I wasn't looking for it, so the snark was gratuitous.


Banana & Man

Did you know humans share about 50% of DNA with bananas?

On a related note, I thought about adding several different things to this trivia post; my first thought was to post the dancing banana "Peanut Butter Jelly Time" video, but that was too annoying. You're welcome.  I then thought I might want to post "Venus" by Bananarama, but that doesn't have a thing to do with bananas other than in the group's name...and besides that, I've been planning on doing a post about that cover and the original song.  Then I remembered that a Beetlejuice II movie is in the works, so I settled on this scene from the first movie:

Happy President's Day!

I usually try to keep it to just one quiz per "page" in this blog, but today is President's Day, so I'll make an exception.

Besides, it keeps me from having to post some otherwise substantial and interesting content. 

You Are Abraham Lincoln
You are a very principled person who can't help but worry about the world.

Your conscience weighs heavy on you.

You have the best of intentions, and you are very earnest. There's little you prefer more than the simple truth.

You are internally motivated and able to tackle almost any challenge. You don't give up, and you're very diligent.


You have high expectations and tend to be firm with those around you, including yourself. However, you are also very warm, generous, and forgiving. 


 


An oldie, but goodie...the back side of Mount Rushmore.  If I'm Abraham Lincoln, then I'm the one with the biggest butt.

Dog Day Afternoon


Got an email from Fanbox yesterday afternoon, saying I had a fairly large amt. of money in my account.  Now, I don't remember signing up for it, but that's nothing new - I got an email from Flickr a while back telling me I needed to sign into the site if I wanted to keep my acct., so it was a distinct possibility that I had joined the site then promptly forgot about it. (as I did Flickr)   So, I went to the site to see why it was I had money in my account and when I clicked on the link, the above was where I was sent.

I read more about it and found out many on the 'net think it's a scam. It probably is because I would have had to give some sensitive information to cash in my money, but their 404 page is cute.

They can keep the money.
