Here is a animatic for a Ren and Stimpy episode where Ren tells Stimpy about the Crusades… very bizarre.
This is a fantastic video from IFL Battleground where an MMA legend, Don Frye, answers a question from another MMA legend, Ken Shamrock.

This is a film I remember seeing during a film studies class. Very creepy.
I think any frequent reader of my blog would notice that I enjoy television. When I was a boy, I also really enjoyed TV commercials. Joe Sedelmaier is probably the prime example of why I liked TV commercials so much. Sedelmaier is a man who ran an advertising agency out of Chicago that was responsible for a string of amazingly funny television commercials. In this age of DVRs, I would stop zapping the ad breaks of my recorded shows if I thought there was an odd chance that I might be able to watch commercials like his every day. Here are some of his amazing advertisements:
Here is a commercial, titled “Fluffy Bun,” advertising “Wendy’s Old-Fashioned Hamburgers.” The commercial is famous for Clara Peller and her gruffly-delivered line, “Where’s the Beef.” This line was so popular it was lampooned everywhere from sitcoms to presidential campaign debates.
Here is the follow-up to the “Fluffy Bun” commercial. In this commercial, Clara Peller drives around time harassing the drive-thru windows of various local small-beef-serving restaurants.This is a commercial called, “Parts is Parts.”
Here is another fantastic Wendy’s commercial made during the era of the Soviet Union. Here is a communist-run fashion show. Wendy’s, unlike communists, give their followers a choice. Brilliant.
In this commercial, Sedelmaier’s team points out that McDonalds Chicken McNuggets are made from processed chicken parts; and only 15 plus years prior to Morgan Spurlock talking about it in “Super Size Me.”
This is an incredibly famous commercial from the 80s for Federal Express featuring John Moschitta, the former fastest speaker in the world. John is a fast-talking, no nonsense business person who needs a fast-delivering, no nonsense delivery service. Very entertaining.
This is a commercial for Kaypro: The Complete Computer. A man goes to a computer shop and asks to purchase the inexpensive computer they advertised. Turns out the advertisement is only for the CPU… sound familiar?
This is a commercial for a Canadian brand of insulation called Fiberglas Pink. Check out what this man does with the money he saves by using Fiberglas Pink.
To conclude this post, here is a commercial for Pearson’s Salted Nut Roll. The name Salted Nut Roll is already a web of double entendre, but Sedelmaier makes this an incredibly funny commercial.
