Those around me know that I had predicted this would be a relatively mild winter, and I'd say that having the first real snow fall three weeks into January fulfills my prediction. Now, it was pretty cold (around 20 degrees) when I went out to shovel yesterday, but the snow was the light and fluffy kind, and we got only about three inches, so I kind of enjoyed it. And we're supposed to approach 50 degrees tomorrow and Tuesday, so it's all going to melt anyway.
Meanwhile, back on the internet, it was a bit of a pop-culture fest this week:
—a classic movie recreated using action figures (Pop Culture Brain via Videogum)
—classic album covers recreated in LEGO (High Snobriety via Esquire Style Blog)
—these dogs want to bark you a familiar tune (YouTube via Jalopnik)
Elsewhere, those of you who are compulsively minded (like me) will appreciate the organizing principle behind this tumblr (Cult of Mac)
And finally this week, Stephen Colbert's satire machine has shifted into high gear for primary season. If you haven't been following along, he formed a SuperPAC and has been using the funds to create a hilarious series of mock campaign ads. You can find all of them here.
