Remember people to never talk to robots.

That is all.

BTW, other Matt is a non-posting prick.

Smile...You're Under Arrest

I don't know how wide spread the "Fox Reality Channel" is but the geniuses over there have created a great goose of gigantic gold egg laying prowess. The show is called Smile...You're Under Arrest, and it stars the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office more specifically Sheriff Joe Arpaio. The premise of the show is that they take people who have failed to show up for court on the charges brought up against them and have warrants out for their arrest get called in for different bit parts for either a movie, a costume clothing store, and a holistic wellness place just to name a few. So the people with warrants out for their arrest respond to a mailer and get picked up and go to these random locations to take part in what they believe would be a odd day out, and the fake company they have chosen to pick these outlaws up with is called J.L. Thyme...yes.

I don't have anything clever to say here, this is one of those few and brilliant situations where the set up will be better then the punchline ever could hope to be.

If you want to check it out they still have them on www.Hulu.com just search smile and you should get them as the first three results.

Here's the first episode for shits and grins.

The Challenge

Here at the Apple and the Earworm (seriously that title is such ass and I need to change it) we have a healthy competitive spirit. Afterall, having two editors with the same name, it is only natural that we clash in an eternal struggle to find out who among us is superior. That said, we're having a race. Both other-matt and I particularly enjoy videogames. Portal is a videogame. We like Portal. So we're going to race at it. This may seem particularly uninteresting as Portal is borderline-borderline ancient (yes I meant to say borderline twice) but its simple, we're both familiar with it, and we both own it. So thats that. I'll have more information up when we schedule the race and when it does actually happen, we might try to do something interesting with it. So check back in.
