I took the day off today as it’s my birthday. Yay for me! The only thing I did today site-wise was to add a fancy schmancy plugin that makes the site easily readable if you happen to come here using a Nintendo Wii. Hey, us dorks know that browsing the web on your tv is fun for at least 5 minutes. Happy New Year and all that jazz! See you on Tuesday.

The History of the Guillotine, a timeline.
Game Guru Giveaway
The Game Guru Giveaway is tough. A new question every day with some gaming prizes. I don’t usually plug contests, but this one has some fun questions, just ignore the ad-related ones if you can.

Armchair Arcade has a good piece on the history of computer role-playing games 1980-1983.
Land of Tuh
The Land of Tuh has an oddball collection of movies, clips, articles and the like. They have 8 episodes of Mach Baron (Japanese live action robot show), Zsa Zsa Gabor, a BBQ from 1970 and more. Not everything is safe for work, so look before you leap.

Snow Line‘s one of those “draw the line, press play and hope you’ve created a working route” games. Oh, with Santa though so it’s Christmas-like.
50 Greatest Cartoons
Cityrag has taken a list of the top 50 Greatest Cartoons as voted on by animators and posted a link to the video for each one (except the classic “Gertie the Dinosaur”, if I could convert videotapes to my computer I’d add it).
Public Radio Podcasts
In my search for interesting podcasts (a hard thing to find it seems), I’ve recently found a good resource of public radio podcasts.
Something Old, Something New
Something Old, Something New has their Christmas mix online. Good choices with the Flaming Lips, 5,6,7,8′s, The Fall and more.
Zamzar
Zamzar converts your files online. They handle images, audio or video with a variety of formats. Switch your mp3 to an ogg or your wmv to an ipod-ready file. Nice.
Christmas Time In Hell
What’s quickly become a holiday favorite in my house, South Park’s “Christmas Time In Hell”. Opening scene with Adolph Hitler of course.
