Fantastic Four :: Clobberin' Time 
I haven't been able to stop playing this new game on the Fantastic Four website called Clobberin' Time. It's a strategy type game, but the graphics are ridiculously good for a flash application. I highly suggest you check it out. If you see BuffaloBan on there, challenge him to a game. Enjoy. (via Wonderland)

Old Dominion Beer Festival! 
I was just cruising through craigslist and I saw that they had an event calendar. I'm sure they've had this for some time now, but I'd never noticed it before. So I decided to check it out and stumbled across something pretty interesting for this weekend: The Old Dominion Beer Festival! Tickets are $12, it's about 40mins from DC at the Old Dominion Brewery and it looks pretty cool. It runs until 11pm Friday and Saturday and until 7pm on Sunday. Once you buy your way in, 6 oz. beers are $1 a piece, which seems like a pretty good deal. 10 6 oz beers + entry = $22 for 60 oz. of all sorts of beer. For example, some of the breweries planning on attending are:
Chimay Brewing, Dogfish Head, Allagash Brewing, Magic Hat Brewing, Tuppers'Brewing Co., Fordham Brewing, Abita Brewing Co., Sierra Nevada Brewing, Hofbrau Brewing, and Flying Dog Brewing
There are many more, but those are the ones I'd go for. Plus, there's live music, food, games, and crafts. Looks pretty schweet to me.

The Money Monkey Dancer 
I found it. I finally found it! Okay, well, not so much found it as got an email pointing me to it. But, the point is that Mike's newest film creation now has a place on the intarwebs. The Monkey Monkey Dancer is a 7 minute film about an internet addict in search of an internet idol. It parodies the Numa Numa dance [more info at wikipedia]. But don't take my word for it, here's the verbage straight from the boca de lupe:
The Monkey Monkey Dancer tells the tale of three best friends torn over the artistic merit of George Howler's infamous viral video, The Monkey Monkey Dance. This rift threatens to pull apart the very fabric of their brotherly lattice, but Mike inspires Byron and Ken to sally forth into the depths of Manhattan to find George Howler. Is he an artistic genius? Or just a loser? And what to do once they find him? These questions haunt the protagonists and the audience alike until the final riveting frame.
Anyway, you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll enjoy the music, and maybe, just maybe, you'll cast Mike in your next feature production.
