As someone just mentioned to me, yes, they’re just lip synching a song. Still, the idea of putting the two videos together and playing them simultaneously is pretty darn cool to me. Take a peak if you haven’t already. Make sure you start the right one first, then wait until it prompts before starting the left one. If you have a slow connection, you may want to wait for both to load before starting. Skips would ruin the whole experience.
PLAY THE RIGHT VIDEO FIRST. YOU’LL BE TOLD WHEN TO PUSH PLAY ON THE LEFT ONE.

As the year ends, there will be about 3.8 trillion blog posts and site resources about the “X Best X of 2008″. Unfortunately, most of these will suck. This is one by bevnet.com that actually doesn’t suck. Perhaps it’s because they actually picked a topic that they are an authority in - much different from other sites that talk tech then write lists about best-dressed Hollywood mug shot pictures.
Here is a drink that I found interesting: Honest Kids. I don’t know if it tastes good, whether or not it’s effective, and how it’s supposed to make kids honest, but as far as offbeat names for kids’ beverages, this is definitely up there.
What we do know is that it’s USDA Organic, one of its flavors is Tropical Tango Punch, and it’s one of those containers that bullies in school used to squeeze on people (not me, of course) to stain the new white sweater they got from aunt Vera this (and every) Christmas.

This is one of those enigma submissions. Great topic, interesting title, reliable, diggable source, over 200 Diggs, and yet it still didn’t flip. Something isn’t right here. There were no other stories that I could find with the keyword “Schwarzenegger” that hit the front page in the last few days, so I just don’t know. Heck, there was even a story from an Equipment Leasing Price website. Great read, though.

With the financial crisis and credit becoming evermore scarcer by the day, it was bound to happen. People are finding new ways to pay their bills and off their debts.
This man’s is definitely the most amusing so far. He submitted a drawing. The correspondence between him as the agent is even more so.

Yeah, Diggers and other social media users get upset when blogs and small websites do these things. So, how about when the big media sites do them?
The NY Times, especially, used to get on my nerves with their Twitter account. Every morning at 4AM, they dumped 10-20 links into the twitterverse. They’ve since stopped. Although, I’m still disappointed when I see mainstream media sites use Twitter as an RSS feed.
I really don’t think they get the Internet.
Original Description:
Forbes, BusinessWeek, The New York Times, Mens Health, you name it. The big guys think that they because they entered in the game early, or because they have some popular print publication backing them up, they can get away with whatever they want.

Got kids?
Adults lie as well; in fact, kids are just really practicing for when they’re older. Or, perhaps they’re getting even for Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.
My favorite part of the article is the linking between lying, high IQ, and good social skills.
The world would fall apart if we could all read each other’s minds.
Original Description:
“Daddy puts on your bras sometimes,” my then 4-year-old said nonchalantly as I tried on lingerie in a department store dressing room. “Excuse me? When?” I asked, astonished. “When you’re asleep,” she replied — and proceeded to describe how, early Saturday mornings, he’d slip a bra over his T-shirt and then jump on our mini-trampoline.

If ever there was a better indication that marriage is no longer a priority in life, we haven’t seen it. In Boston, AshleyMadison.com is launching a $500,000 ad campaign that does just that. Their idea (and motto) is:
Life is short. Have an affair.
The fact that adultery is illegal in Massachussets is apparently not in issue here, as the law is antiquated and not really enforced by any of their law enforcement agencies. It is, of course, still a legal grounds for a divorce.
Their radio spots started airing last week. In one, President and CEO Noel Biderman promises “an affair to remember.” TV spots begin airing next month, just in time to wreck marriages before Christmas. This does not seem to be an issue of regard to the company or its CEO.
“The era of the scarlet letter is long over,” he said. Read more…

There hasn’t been a time in history that a President has been hit with as much ridicule as George W. Bush. Bill Clinton had his follies, but they were nothing compared to what has transpired the last 7 years, 10 months.
This article about a Bush Autobiography actually received quite a few Diggs considering the submitter. It would have been nice to see it hit the front page simply for the crowd-sourced continued list of alternative book titles for a Bush book. He says he’s considering it. Should be interesting.
Original Description:
President Bush says he has many regrets. He is even considering writing a book about his presidency. Possible titles? Economy: Gone with the Wind. Or: Iraqis are from Mars, Afghans are from Uranus. Or: Me and Dick

There are some who live in legends behind the scenes. They are the people who effect the lives of many who probably have no idea who they are. They are in the shadows. In the corners. Behind the walls. We use their services, and we never know their name.
Welcome to the world of aXXo, the undisputed champion of pirating movies on BitTorrent.
This article on Slate takes an in-depth look into what aXXo does and technically how he does it. At the time of this post, it still has a slight chance of hitting. We’ll.

Slate profiles the trademarks of BitTorrent’s most popular movie uploader. Countdown until the MPAA lawsuit? 10, 9, 8…

The Astronomy Picture of the Day has been an amazing and anticipated thing for some time now. NASA posts 1 image at 9:00 PM pst every night, give or take 5 minutes. The images are normally stunning and are absolutely unique to the post in almost every circumstance.
It is one of the most Diggable pieces of regular content on the Internet. There are a couple of problems, though, that make it miss sometimes. First, the timing - dozens of top users know exactly when it will be posted. Second, the place - the URL string is date-stamped, so it can be anticipated when it will be posted.
