Jib Jab Movies
Crutch made this one.
And I made this counter-movie.
Nose once went to fat math camp, so this one was particularly poignant.
And this one was just for fun.

Dumbledore was gay.
"I always thought of Dumbledore as gay," said JK Rowling, when asked if Dumbledore had ever fallen in love.
Oh, he was NOT. That is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard. After reading all 7 books, I noticed not even the tiniest indication of Dumbledore's sexual orientation - one way or another. Indeed, what does it matter? It is said there are no dumb questions, but this is an example of a slightly silly question, and an even sillier answer.
Oh, well.

Candidate Calculator
Clearly unscientific from the perspective of a predictor of election outcomes (it's based on the answers of a non-random sampling of people), this quiz is nonetheless interesting to see who YOU generally most match on a specific list of issues (though note that given the results are based upon this narrow list of issues, this fact also throws off the scientific value of this quiz, in my opinion).
In any event, the results may surprise you. I assumed I'd be most like Ron Paul, but the quiz results showed (again on this limited list of issues) I'm most like Tom Tancredo (R), whom I had never heard of previously, with an 82.76% match. My other top matches were (again surprisingly) Sam Brownback (79.31%), John Cox (79.31%), Duncan Hunter (75.86%), Ron Paul (75.86%) and Fred Thompson (75.86%).
As said, this poll is interesting but not at all scientific; case in point, I've just been informed that Mike Huckabee took this quiz on the Glenn Beck Show yesterday and, according to the results, he only agreed with himself about 71% of the time. :)
