The Man They Call Jayne...

I'm a huge Jayne fan and "Jaynestown" is probably my favourite Firefly episode, so you can guess how much I covet this shirt.

You can find it here.

I'll leave you with the lyrics for "The Ballad of Jayne"...

The Ballad of Jayne

Jayne, the man they call Jayne

He robbed from the rich
And he gave to the poor
Stood up to the man
And gave him what for
Our love for him now
Ain't hard to explain
The hero of Canton
The man they call Jayne

Our Jayne saw the mudders' backs breakin'
He saw the mudders' lament
And he saw the magistrate takin'
Every dollar and leavin' five cents
So he said "you can't do that to my people"
He said "you can't crush them under your heel"
So Jayne strapped on his hat
And in 5 seconds flat
Stole everythin' Boss Higgins had to steal

He robbed from the rich
And he gave to the poor
Stood up to the man
And gave him what for
Our love for him now
Ain't hard to explain
The hero of Canton
The man they call Jayne

Now here is what separates heroes
From common folk like you and I
The man they call Jayne
He turned 'round his plane
And let that money hit sky
He dropped it onto our houses
He dropped it into our yards
The man they called Jayne
He stole away our pain
And headed out for the stars

He robbed from the rich
And he gave to the poor
Stood up to the man
And gave him what for
Our love for him now
Ain't hard to explain
The hero of Canton
The man they call Jayne.

For the Wampa Who Has Everything...

Yes, those are paper snowflakes. Admit it--you want to make some now, don't you?

Mario on the Street

Artist Andy Gonsalves went for the ultimate mashup: Sesame Street and Super Mario Bros. I approve. (And I don't care if it was created by a bunch of hippies--Sesame Street rules!)

Star Wars Trilogy Re-told...with LEGO

I never expected this blog to be so Star Wars-heavy, but what can you do--the thing is endlessly entertaining. And what is it about LEGOs that invariably ratchet up the awesome? Pure geek gold!

A definite contender for best Jack-o-Lantern EVAR!

Robot Cupcakes!

Unlike the incredibly lame US$65,000 (not a misprint!) robotic puppet I tweeted about earlier (and which can be found here) these robot cupcake molds are made of win (their heads even swivel). And for only $17.95.
