If you're into architecture and big buildings, then skyscraperpage.com is a freakin' awesome site. If you check out the buildings that are proposed or under construction, you will find some absolutely fabulous buildings. In particular I really dig the Fordham Spire, Abraj Al Bait Towers and the Federation Tower.

Their search form is pretty nifty as well.

Kevin Godley and Lol Creme were half of the original group by 10cc along with Graham Gouldman and Eric Stewart. In 1977 Kevin and Lol left 10cc at the peak of the group's popularity to start their own self-titled group. Even though their experimental music wasn't a commercial success, their videos sparked a creative revolution on MTV. Their video for "Cry" garnered several nominations in 1986 - unfortunately they were up against a-ha's "Take On Me" and Dire Strait's "Money For Nothing." Talk about a banner year for videos ...

"You don't know how to ease my pain
You don't know ...
You don't know how to ease my pain

You don't know what the sound is darlin'
It's the sound of my tears fallin'
Or is it the rain?

You don't know ...
You don't know how to play the game
You cheat
You lie
You make me wanna cry
You make me wanna cry
Cry...
You make me wanna cry

You don't know how to ease my pain
You don't know
You don't know how to ease my pain

Don't you hear any voices cryin'?
That's the sound of my love dyin'
Here comes the rain ..."

What happens when you cross Macbeth with The Simpsons? Well, you get MacHomer! Rick Miller users over 50 voices for the one man show, and the script remains 85% Shakespeare. You can check out some audio clips here (via the MacHome website.)

"Is this a dagger which I see before me? Or a pizza? mmmm ... pizza ..."
