I just was sent this from a friend via StumbleUpon and enjoyed this. If you are a Star Wars fan, you will too.

Blinky, your new best friendBlinky, your new best friend
Quarreling parents, an annoying kid, and a lovable robot make this short film a fun trip into the near future. Who hasn’t wanted a robot playmate of their own? Blinky is no Robbie, but at least he tries. Check the 12 minute movie out for a treat. Be sure to go full screen and turn on HD if your connection can handle it.
—Edit— The original video was taken down for quite some time, but is back!

It looks like the original video was password protected. I found this version with Spanish subtitles.

The Lunch LadyThe Lunch Lady
In a completely off topic transition from Sci-Fi, I felt compelled to share this following telephone answering machine message. My wife sent me a quick IM telling me I needed to call this # (I don’t list it here) and “just listen to it.” Apparently this lady is quite eccentric, which I can’t do any justice by trying to describe her. She starts off by reading off a menu with food on it then digresses into song, then wishes everyone safe travels. That sounds normal enough, right?
Here’s The Lunch Lady telephone message. If you like the Lunch Lady, you can visit her official site, The Lunch Lady Fan Club.

I just ran across this excellent Star Wars Lego chess set. It looks like someone made it for the Star Wars Days at Legoland California. The site has an English translation button for those interested in reading more background on the set.
