I really like it, you know?



Sick video. "Happy Up Here" by Röyksopp, directed by Reuben Sutherland.

UPDATE: This one is pretty cool too. Reminds me of an early 80's MTV video.

Just walk away, and he will spare your lives


Ben Templesmith will be at Comic-Con. This is how he chose to announce that fact. I approve.

The votes are Inge


The deadline for Major League Baseball's Final Vote — in which the fans fill out the AL and NL All-Star teams by picking one player from five for each league — is 4 p.m. today.

As steadfast Phillies fans, the Orange Whip editorial board naturally advocates the election of Shane Victorino in the National League, and has voted several times thusly. But we'd also like to endorse the Detroit Tigers' Brandon Inge for the American League. Why? Because Inge has had a large part in the success of this blog writer's fantasy baseball team — the Bulletproof Tigers — over the first half of the season (that catcher eligibility has been clutch). And we take care of our own 'round these parts.

That being said, I have no idea why the Phillies organization itself is advocating the Inge/Victorino ticket. Anyone?

UPDATE: Victorino and Inge were the top vote-getters. Mission accomplished.

Wild in the streets


Girl Skateboards has released a skateboard series featuring characters from company co-founder Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are. Pretty cool.

Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right


I checked out the Philadelphia International Championship bike race for the first time this year with some friends and family, and I just finished posting my photos over here. Everything was shot on Lemon Hill, aside from a few down on Kelly Drive.
