Rickrolling is an Internet meme involving Rick Astley’s music video for his song “Never Gonna Give You Up“. In a Rickroll, a person provides a link they claim is relevant to the topic at hand which actually takes the user to the Astley video. It can also mean playing the song loudly in public in order to be disruptive.

What you’ll see is people hiding the RickRoll in another link. For instance, you click a link sent by your friend that says it’s for “Cheap Computer Parts” only to find you’re sent to a RickRoll video. The net is a funny place sometimes. The latest variant (and the funniest IMO) is the Muppet Rick Roll.

If that goes online you can snag the AVI from my site here.

Researchers at Duke University Medical Center have used a monkey’s brain activity to control a robot on the other side of the globe.

In what researchers tout as a first-of-its-kind experiment, monkeys’ thoughts controlled the walking patterns of a robot in Japan.

“They can walk in complete synchronization,” said Dr. Miguel Nicolelis, who also is the Anne W. Deane Professor of Neuroscience at Duke. “The most stunning finding is that when we stopped the treadmill and the monkey ceased to move its legs, it was able to sustain the locomotion of the robot for a few minutes — just by thinking — using only the visual feedback of the robot in Japan.”

 Watch the genius of two guys as they roll around England pretending to be “the DJ” and getting into all kinds of places…ya… they don’t stop at just clubs.

Why this popped into my head today I’ll never know. But this lil guy can move and it sho puts a smile on my face to watch.

Ok this is funny,  Bible Fight is a flash game, kinda like a Bible version of Street fighter that spoofs both the Bible and Street Fighter.

The creators, those guys at This Is Pop for Adult Swim are completely insane, that said… I think this is hi-larious.

You can use Bible fighters called Eve, Noah, Moses, Mary, Satan, and Jesus, who look and dress like Eve, Noah, Moses, Mary, Satan, and Jesus and then battle is out Street Fighter style.
