“THE BROKERS WITH HANDS ON THEIR FACES BLOG” is the best way to interpret our economy
How many pictures have we seen like this:

Yes Wall-Streeters, we know you’re getting acne from all of the grease that keeps being passed from your hand to your face. Stop it. Or don’t, because THE BROKERS WITH HANDS ON THEIR FACES BLOG exists because of you.
The blog aggregates images with Wall-Streeters’ hands on their faces (what else would it do?), and does it well.
Bravo for kicking our economy while it’s down!
Fall: the season of crunchy leaves, midterm exams, and Powerpoint presentations
Smell that fresh breeze? It’s difficult to identify as either the tinge of the fall season or your sinuses under attack before your big Powerpoint presentation tomorrow.
Raise your hand if you hate Powerpoint. How Microsoft has let this software dominate conference-type presentations for the past 10 or so years is beyond me. I hope that the next generation will scoff at it, and also be able to find a used version on sale for a dollar (by that time, a dollar will equal a peso) at a thift store.
But unfortunately, we have to use it at this time of year because it’s mid-semester time. Well, here is a blog post that features Powerpoint presentations that are actually artistic.
So if you feel like wasting some of your precious time on some lame software, you can at least make it a little fun.
Cross your fingers for that thrift store scenario, though.

This is my “modest blog horse.” It’s the horse that I ride when I am modest about any blogs read online today. Look for him on days when things are slow.
At a time when the Huffington-trading-Post has confirmations of Lindsay Lohan’s relationship, I untie modest-blog-horse and we eat sugar cubes and neigh in agony.
Then, Google called from the heavens and told me to help others (on my modest horse) with their new “Project 10 to the 100th.”
We are riding off into the sunset now. I’ve got a mission and a saddle.
It’s 90 degrees at 9 p.m. That means I know you’ll be wearing a t-shirt tomorrow. How can you beat the classic t-shirt? Isn’t it a great feeling when you feel compelled to purchase one, because it strikes you at that point in time in when whatever phased-randomness is equivalent to your life?
I like t-shirts but I don’t wear them as much as I should, perhaps. Until now. Finally I can find a shirt based on the message I want to send out to my intimidating college peers, whom I really, really care about.

Pleasedress.me is a search engine for t-shirts. It sounds insane, but really, what the flip, it’s brilliant. I know plenty of kids into t-shirts that would enjoy typing in a keyword to find clothing. It sounds like it almost justifies clothing in general, doesn’t it?
I’m skeptical about anything with the word “indie” in the title. But when I can’t sleep at night, who cares about pride.
So I hop on Indietv.tv, make sure no one is looking, and watch some random cartoon.
My favorite thus far? Olympus Burger. Picture the Greek gods in the midst of a commercial fast food kitchen. Hades is the janitor. It’s all so priceless:
Someday we’ll look back and say, “I was on MS DOS. Where were you?”

And that will be a great day.
Screenprinted it this weekend; so, so tight.
Let’s face it: judging a book by its cover would be 10 times easier than actually looking up similar readings and receiving recommendations from shady sources. I’m not a fan of the novella, nor am I too adamant about non-fiction jabberings of people with lots of time.
Picking out what to read next is like picking out a new life soundtrack–every mood and phase has to fit perfectly, or its just another boring existential transition (so deep…).
Obviously, computers have the answer. WhatshouldIreadnext.com lets you input your current or most recent read, analyze a database of users, and give you some suggestions about your best bet for smooth page-sailing.
(Better than “look what others who bought this read.”)
