Dramatic Chipmunk reminds me of that scene in Austin Powers where he’s playing blackjack and holds on 5 because he “also likes to live life dangerously”. Judge for yourself…
First, Dramatic Chipmunk - aka the best 5-second clip on the internet…
Next, Austin Powers…
If you’re impatient, fast-forward to the 0:43 mark.

Netherlands vs England - Bicycle Kick
June 20th, 2007 · 2 Comments
I’ve always been a sucker for a good bicycle kick. This goal by Maceo Rigters in the 89th minute tied the game. The Dutch went on to win on penalty kicks.

Sonos
June 15th, 2007 ·
One of my favorite gadget purchases of the past couple of years has been Sonos. It’s a great way to stream music throughout your house. The source of the music can be mp3’s, music subscription services such as Rhapsody, internet radio, even line-in sources such as an iPod. You can set up multiple “zones” in the house either playing different music or synched up to play the same music. One of the most requested features on the Sonos forums has been integration with Pandora. They added that a few weeks ago and it works great. Here’s an interview / demo with Sonos CEO John McFarlane from ScobleShow.
Here’s a photo of my Sonos controller running Pandora.

“It’s been both fun and funny reading some of the interpretations of the end. People are creative (insane?) and it certainly speaks to the beauty of the last scene in that it allows people to imagine what they will.”
