1. Recommendation of the Day: Electric 6

The Electric Six have been rocking hard for over a decade, although most people probably know them, if they know them at all, because of Gay Bar, the surf rock song with the music video featuring a bevy of half naked Abraham Lincolns engaging in homoerotic activities at the Whitehouse. Ever since, E6 have been constantly evolving, their songs ranging from dancy to rocky to operatic to absurd, yet always fun and memorable.

http://www.brewdog.com/tactical_nuclear_penguin.php
Scottish men dressed as penguins, brewing beer.  Beautiful.
2. Quote of the Day: “I think I’m half penguin. Mixed penguin human, penguin human. A puman. I have the sense of humor of a human, and the fish eating abilities of a penguin, and the power of a baby wolf. And I’m quite good at swimming, provided there’s no sharks to eat me.” –My Favorite Scottish Brewer (see link above)

1. Internet Pick of the Day: The Hottest (Nude) Ladies in the History of Painting
Personally I think Gustav Klimt’s rendering of naked bitties is a cut above the rest, but you can decide for yourself.

2. Quote of the Day:
“Personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a check-list of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications, your CV, are not your life, though you will meet many people of my age and older who confuse the two. Life is difficult, and complicated, …

1. Picture of the Day:
People have been saying that with the frequency of major earthquakes (Haiti, Chile, China, etc.) the world is ending. I didn’t believe them. And then I saw this picture:

1. Recommendation of the Day:
Watch “In the Loop” for the most creative use of swearing. This is a laugh out loud view of British vs. American politics as sides clash to stop or start an intervention in the Middle East. The politics themselves are vague and not the focus of discussion; instead we see the men and women who make things happen one way or another. The only actor you’ll probably recognize is the great Rutgers grad James Gandolfini playing an armchair …

1.  Suggestion of the Day:  Learn how something works by taking it apart and putting it back together.  This tests not only your curiosity and knowhow, but also your ballsiness.  Anyone can dismantle a Bic pen—you can’t figure out how to put it back you just throw it out.  Go ahead; try it on your X-Box.  It’ll be funny.
2.  Quote of the Day:  “Gentle reader, we see God through our assholes in the flash bulb of orgasm.”  –William S. Burroughs

1. Recommendation of the Day: Team Submarine
Team Submarine’s Correctamundo! is a $5 tour-de-force of a comedy album that’ll have you hitting “repeat” on tracks before they even finish so you can laugh again at a joke you just heard. That’s right: the CD is so good you’ll be laughing at a joke YOU JUST HEARD. “You just heard it! You know the punchline! Why are you still laughing?!” Because it’s that good!
