Just what it says. You’ve had shrimp on a bed of rice, so go wild, kick the jambs out and try shrimp on a treadmill.
This isn’t the scholarly, narrated, boring version of the video, the one linked to by everybody and his brother the Total Farker. Naw, it’s the colourized, Flight of the Bumblebee-scored, cheaply amusing version, just as you’d expect from the ol’ raincoaster blog.
And this concludes Cthulhu Day.
Oh, one more thing.
I’m posting this for Raj, as he’s one of the 30, making the rest each only one of the 29 left over. Not that I’m elitist at all, now that I’ve gotten my charming mug into the social columns…of course, I was wearing a mask. Hmmm, good thing for my ego I don’t believe in causality.

The most infamous fitness video of all time, and that includes the porn ones.
This is what William Wegman would have done, had he taken a hit of acid and channelled the spirit of Eva Gabor. And Dali, watching, would have spooged all over himself in spasmodic glee.
From JapanProbe:
Bummer, dude.
from SETI.org Spaceref.com which if I’d realized back when I posted the first one, I’d not have posted them at all. So much for trusting Fark. I knew there was a reason I hadn’t blogrolled them.
Here is the actual Tuesday announcement. And below is the hold-your-boosters post from Spaceref.com.
Major SETI Institute Announcement
Editor’s update: For all of you out there who have been waving your arms around and speculating, this is not an announcement about finding a signal from ETs, the face on Mars, or anything else. It is far more mundane. Details of the announcement were released – under press embargo – to reporters last week. A press release about the announcement will be issued on Tuesday by the SETI Institute.
Editor’s update: To those of you who have been speculating about what will be announced tomorrow: The original calendar posting on this page simply had date, time, and location. Nothing else. It was posted here a week ago – on 9 October. A detailed – but embargoed – media alert was sent out at the same time to reporters by the SETI Institute in which no mention is made of signals from outer space. Yet, the announcement is indeed a major one for the SETI Institute.
Please ask yourself this: do you (1) really think that the SETI Institute would issue some sort of major announcement i.e. detection of a signal from another civilization – a week ahead of announcing it formally – and then (2) expect the media to sit on such amazing news – for an entire week? The next time y’all start to whip up a frenzy – out of thin air – use a little common sense before you hit [send].
10:00 – 11:00 am PDT
Date: Tuesday, October 17, 2006
Location: SETI Institute, 515 N. Whisman Road, Mountain View, CA, US

Again, people, this is why I don’t like to swim in the ocean.
