Robot Chicken

What is robot chicken? Robot chicken is a 15 minute show on the cartoon network. It is stop motion animation with action figures. And it is in the vein of Saturday Night Live and Mad TV as sketch comedy. The show is produced by Seth Green. Who is also a huge action figure collector. You may remember the Optimus Prime Public Service Announcement that I posted last week. Well that was a skit from Robot Chicken. Here’s some great information about what is sure to be a pop culture sensation.

10 MPH

The Segway has a special place in my heart, despite it being a weird little device that makes you look really silly while riding it, but man I want to try it. Anyway Dean Kamen has come up with some more variations of the Segway including one with a golf bag and one with huge tires for off roading. Makes me think of that commercial with the guy running around the trails on his invisible bike and then taking a face plant down a hill. Not sure if I want to take a Segway into the woods.

Well there is a guy who has taken a Segway from Seattle to Boston. And made a documentary about it. It is called 10 mph: Dreams: America: Livin’ it: Segway. I haven’t completely explored the site yet but there are some great pictures from across the country, and since I enjoy taking pictures all over the country I know I’m gonna like these.
