Russia's Gazprom Signs Deal with Nigerian NNPC, Unfortunate Naming Ensues
Russia's energy giant Gazprom has signed a $2.5bn (£1.53bn) deal with Nigeria's state operated NNPC, to invest in a new joint venture. The new firm, to be called Nigaz, is set to build refineries, pipelines and gas power stations in Nigeria.
Seriously?

80s Video Friday: Thriller
It's only appropriate to dedicate this week's 80s Video Friday to The Greatest Music Video Ever Made. And let's face it, no music video will top this, ever. It was groundbreaking when it came out and it also features choreographed zombies. Do you know how hard it is to get zombies to do anything else besides aimlessly meander around in search of brains?

Insane.
Shaq wants to play this dude in horse for $1,000. He might as well write him a check now.
Air France Flight 447 or Oceanic Flight 815?
Does this screenshot look familiar? Apparently not to a Bolivian TV station or Dutch radio station who thought these pics from ABC's LOST were actual pictures from the Air France Flight 447 tragedy earlier this month. C'mon guys.

We Talkin' About Practice?
And just when I thought this couldn't get any better, I made it to the 3:18 mark.
This could easily crack the iTunes top 10.

80s Video Friday: In the Air Tonight
In honor of The Hangover (if you haven’t seen that movie yet, go this weekend, seriously), I’d like to dedicate this week’s 80s Video Friday to a song featured in the movie, Phil Collins’ In the Air Tonight.
What’s great about this song is how closely it’s tied to the 80’s pastel-laden hit series Miami Vice. The song was originally used for the pilot episode, one of the first instances a hit song was featured in a network television series. After watching that, I totally want to rent a black Ferrari and drive around South Beach at 4:00am (shotgun-toting sidekick optional).
And while we’re on the topic of Miami Vice, how disappointing was the recent remake a few years ago? From the trailer alone, it seemed like it would be a killer movie but then when you actually sat down and watched it? Ugh. “Ok, Michael Mann, I get it, Miami has some nice skylines. Please let’s get on with the movie already.” No lie, I fell asleep twice (twice!) during that goddamn movie.

After thinking about it, I don't know if I'm in favor or against this movement. It's such a cultural centerpiece to the greater New York metropolitan area, it really deserves to be its own state.
Can it take New Jersey while it's at it? Combined they could create a land where tanning parlors and car stereo dealers stretch as far as the eye can see. They'd have to incorporate a tribal tattoo somewhere on their state flag, right?
We know Revere would start to thin out; it'd be like douchebag manifest destiny.

80s Video Friday: High Enough
High Enough - Damn Yankees
Now, I don't have any hard evidence, but I wouldn't be surprised if Ted Nugent has bow-hunted actual humans before. Kinda like the movie Hard Target.

PS3 Motion Controler vs. Microsoft's Project Natal
Gotta give the edge here to PS3 on the grounds that it was live-action use.

Blonde Bombshell Party! Who Wants Fake Tits?
In case you can't read it above "The hottest blonde in the audience wins free breast implants from Dr. Russo"
They are not even trying to hide the sleaze factor here. I'm fielding a few bets: 1)Over/under on the guy/girl ratio? 2) Winner ends up doing porn within the next 3 years.

RunPee.com = Genius
Perfectly time your next movie theater bathroom run. This is something that actually makes sense to have on your phone.
And the site has a sense of humor. For the Hannah Montana movie: "Go home right after the previews and pee for as long as you please in the comfort of your own home. You wont miss anything."
Another "I should have thought of that" ideas...
