Internet Video-athon

It's a rainy day here in Anacortes, perfect for catching up on the latest happenings on the interweb (pshaw...like I ever fall behind). But besides the latest goings-on, it is sometimes worth reminiscing over the gems that have had their time in the spotlight and then moved along. I almost consider it a crime to hear when a friend hasn't seen (or even heard of) some of my favorites, so I thought I would use this opportunity to share.

Because I have frisbee on the brain right now, I can't pass up sharing this gem (8MB .mov). If that doesn't get you inspired to play, then nothing will. Or if politics are your thing, check out these two classics of Will Ferrell impersonating President Bush. Here (QuickTime or YouTube) is one of my ultimate favorites: an ad for Sony's Bravia TV (worth watching in the high quality QuickTime).

I know there have been a ton more over the years, but none come to mind immediately. And since sharing is a two-way street, you should leave a link to your favorite internet video in the comments for us all to enjoy. Ain't sharing a beautiful thing?

It sounds like the first link isn't working for some people (Quicktime thinks it's so fancy...) so try the same thing YouTube style here.

Since it seems like SNL skits are the style of the times, I will add this one to the mix: Don't buy stuff you can't afford.

Right on, Jule. I was going to mention that one in the original post, but then didn't. True story. Good video though. Come on, people, let's dig deep and find the ones that didn't make it to VH1s top viral videos. I want to see at least one new one that I haven't seen.

That said, however, I can't pass up adding this cult classic to the mix. Caution: not exactly the kind of clip you would see on Nickelodeon. Hey Kid I'm a Computer

Okay, I'll stop commenting on this post soon, but I couldn't pass up sharing this one. It is possibly my favorite DVD extra ever, from the Matrix 2.

Speaking of music videos, here are a couple of classics: Chevy Chase in a Paul Simon video and Christopher Walken in a Fatboy Slim video. Enjoy!
