Kids' videos, I like kids' videos. I like the way that they help firefighters get to fires.

No, no, no. That's a fire truck.

Right, yes.

The Last Supper



The Last Supper specifically portrays the reaction given by each apostle when Jesus said one of them would betray him. All twelve apostles have different reactions to the news, with various degrees of anger and shock. From left to right:

* Bartholomew, James the Lesser and Andrew form a group of three, all are surprised. Andrew holds both of his hands up in a "stop!" gesture.
* Judas Iscariot, Peter and John form another group of three. Judas is in shadow, looking rather withdrawn and taken aback by the sudden revelation of his plan. He is clutching a small bag of silver, given to him as payment to betray Jesus. Peter looks angry; perhaps foreshadowing Peter's reaction in Gethsemane. Peter is holding a knife, which is pointed away from Christ, also a foreshadowing of Peter's violent protection of Christ in Gethsemane. The youngest apostle, John, appears to swoon.
* Thomas, James Major and Philip are the next group of three. Thomas is clearly upset; James the Greater looks stunned, with his arms in the air. Meanwhile, Philip appears to be requesting some explanation.
* Matthew, Jude Thaddeus and Simon the Zealot are a part of the final group of three. Both Jude Thaddeus and Matthew are turned toward Simon, perhaps to find out if he has any answer to their initial questions.

These names are all agreed upon by art historians. In the 19th century, a manuscript (The Notebooks Leonardo Da Vinci pg. 232) was found with their names; before this only Judas, Peter, John and Jesus were positively identified.

Tennis for Nintendo Wii

A reporter for Time played a demo of the game and loved it so much that Nintendo had to pry the controller from his hands, in his own words.

Nintendo Dreams

I had a dream I was playing the new Nintendo Wii last night. It was pretty cool, and I didn't wake up until 11:00 a.m.

Feeling down

I did even worse on the actuarial exam than I expected. It's times like this I turn to the sound advice of a cowboy, a construction worker, an indian, a biker, a police officer, and a guy in the army ...
