Good crop today, mostly because I had most of the day off...

The Aptly named clip "Why Italian Restaurants Failed in Dubai"



And now a brief interlude:



I think the funniest thing about that clip is how serious the guy looks, and that he has a whole series of youtube videos including such classics as Sweet Child O' Mine and an emotional rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody.

Looking for new ways of using google maps? How about finding crack?

And for those of you who really don't want to get anything done today how about a delightful jigsaw puzzle?

And finally a Japanese reenactment of the song We Are the World (if one thing from the 80's deserves to be celebrated, it was that video):


I think the Bruce Springsteen guy is the best, although the Cyndi Lauper one could actually be Cyndi Lauper, so maybe that wins. It's a shame they didn't do some of the other singers like Bob Dylan or Steve Perry.
