At some point I hope to get back to posting these on Saturday...
Just in time for Halloween: frightening, and also kind of hilarious. (Blogfood)
This collection of tips and suggestions takes a while to scroll through, but it's worth it. (Kottke via The Billfold)
Time-lapse time. This week's destination: Paris, part one and part two. (Laughing Squid)
Here's an article about the, um, distinctive commercials employed by the Carvel ice cream chain back in the 1970s and '80s. It refers to the "tri-state area" of New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut where many Carvel stores were concentrated, but I grew up in Rhode Island with a Carvel just a bit up the road, and I'm quite familiar with these commercials because they ran on our local TV stations too.

And finally this week, I don't know why I didn't think to post this after it first ran on Adult Swim a couple of weeks back, but crush objects Jon Hamm and Adam Scott did a spoof/homage to the '80s-tastic TV series Simon & Simon. You can also find some background on how it came together over here.
