Music: Carl Sagan is so cool Jack White covers his hit records

  • Jack White is releasing a cover of “A Glorious Dawn,” a Carl Sagan-meets-autotune-meets-mashup ditty (featuring special guest Stephen Hawking), which is kind of like “Autotune the News” for famous scientists. What’s crazy is that it’s a full-featured pop song with multiple choruses. And now White’s covering it and releasing it as a 7″ vinyl record. Neat. (Note how we completely ignored the other news at the link. There’s a reason for that.)source

Offbeat: This Transformer dude already has your Halloween costume beat

  • At least he decided to dress like something cool instead of Tron Guy. Though if the guy did this in front of our house as we were passing out candy, we’d point and laugh.source

Offbeat: Not impressed: Some guy shoots an anvil 200 feet in the air

  • Who cares if what Gay Wilkinson is doing is technically impressive and kind of neat? It doesn’t fit our personal standards as video watchers, so we’re gonna complain without merit. Because, seriously, would you expect any less of us?source

Offbeat: Humpback whales fighting: like an oceanic version of “Roadhouse”

whales1023
  • A chick comes into the bar brings attention to herself. A bunch of males, who had been pre-occupied with a round or two of pool or nursing their Yuenglings, come over and try to win some attention. All of a sudden, it turns into this massive fight for the lady’s attention. In the end, the hotshot stud who looks like a whale wins out. And this, friends, is why nature programming is awesome.source
