Hollywood stars who do commercials in Japan while they think no one is looking. My personal favorites are Arnold Schwarzenegger, Wallace and Gromit and The Simpsons, and you've got to check out Michael Jackson's ad.

Cockeyed.com

http://www.cockeyed.com/
The Blog of a madman (the good kind). This guy is always throwing parties for his little scientific experiments: 'How much is Inside?' is a favorite recurring experiment:

He tested how much is inside a Sharpie pen by seeing how many CDs he could write labels for. After 2 months and almost 1000 CDs, he finally ran out of ink. It is this same exhaustive effort you will find in 'How Much Is Inside':

A bottle of mustard
A Keg of beer
Dust off
Print cartridges
Batteries
Lipstick
And more!

Flying spaghetti monster: the game!

The Flying Spaghetti Monster was an invention from a letter to the Kansas Board of education before a decision was made whether to teach 'Intelligent Design' in schools. After he posted a copy of the letter to his website, people somehow stumbled across it and it gained traction from there.

People who belong to the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster are called Pastafarians, and it is your job in the game is, as the 'FSM', to 'Touch them with your noodly appendage' and convert the masses to Pastafarianism!

Jam Studio – Virtual band!

A virtual recording studio with free instrument loops. Pick a key (the default is G to make it simple for you) and the site provides the right chords to use. Because they provide the chords and you simply choose their order, it's easy to make it sound good. Guitar, drums, bass, electric guitar and piano, with dozens of loops for each instrument.

A great site for people who want to write or record music, but don't play an instrument or can't keep a band together. You could also closely approximate a song you like by instructing the site to play the proper chords. A fun site to play around with or to use for something real.

Lolcats

http://icanhascheezburger.com/

http://lolcats.com

or do a search for "lolcat"

A lolcat is the halfway point between dentist office posters and Linux geeks. Pictures of animals (usually cats) doing funny, cute or silly things with captions over the top either describing a possible scenario for the cat or providing words purported to be spoken by the cat. As cats are new at speaking English, it would stand to reason that their spelling and grammar is also terrible. This mishmash of unlikely bedfellows makes for some good laughs.

The Skeletor Show!

Funny video of the week:

The Skeletor Show

Or do a video search for 'The Skeletor Show'.

The 'Trailer' has strong language, but others are pretty family friendly. An overdub of the old He-Man cartoons, the Skeletor Show all but ignores the existence of He-Man, and focuses on the imagined doings of Skeletor and his minions, manipulating the raw footage and recording new audio to create completely unique storylines.

GoogleSync

http://www.google.com/tools/firefox/browsersync/
Made by Google, BrowserSync synchronizes your browser settings –
including bookmarks, history, cookies, and saved passwords – across
your computers. It also allows you to restore open tabs and windows
across different machines and browser sessions.
You do need a Google account in order to use this – because the data
is stored on Google's servers.
It's independent of OS – that is, you can synch browsers on a Mac and
a PC and on a machine running Linux, as long as you are using Firefox
1.5 or greater on all three.
