He-Man dinner theater (link roundup)

Catchy music and lots of dancing star in this version of He-Man and The Masters of the Universe. As far as I can tell, the song is Chahiye He Man He Man by Sapna Mukherjee and available for 90 cents at Amazon. Via these sites.

And a few more links:

1. That's a lot of signs.

2. Who killed Uncle Sam? And relatedly, giant Uncle Sam.

3. Best aspect of Alice Hoffman's meltdown of Twitter? She published the critic's phone number and encouraged her fans to call, but she posted the wrong phone number.

4. Weird, my wife just suggested we have lunch at Bottega Louie in Los Angeles based on this review, and coincidentally, I also just saw this gallery of photos from the restaurant.

Paradox logo (link roundup)

Christopher Simmons makes clever use of chicken and egg in this logo for Paradox. One of Alex Cornell's three favorite logos.

And a few more links:

1. Steampunk Uncle Sam.

2. Eyeball in a mousetrap desktop wallpaper (it's not remotely as gross as it sounds).

3. Low points in Todd Marinovich's life included cutting his hand on a crack pipe and having an accident in his pants before football games. On the plus side, he was known for throwing the best stripper-filled party ever thrown by a Raiders rookie. Read all about it here, and feel better about not making the high school football team.

4. Just an observation about blogging. Ever wonder why some websites seem to link to fairly sleazy sites specializing in image theft? They're quite possibly participating in link exchanges.

Video of some truly impressive trompe l'oeil (link roundup)

This video shows the creation of some really incredible trompe l'oeil pavement art by Edgar Muller - - it's supposed to depict a new ice age in Ireland, and the illusion makes it look like the artists are suspended in midair as they work. There's more street art here.

And a few more links:

1. Andy Suriano throws in a sketch with every purchase of a t-shirt or book.

2. I'm not crazy about the site design, but wow, brothers Jake and Dinos Chapman have used model railroad miniatures to create an incredible depiction of the undead conquering the Third Reich. Well worth your time. Via.

3. Win a Monsters vs. Aliens prize pack.

4. Uncle Sam-bot.
