I love that vid, I watch it and see how many people from the collegehumour vids I recognise :)

I watch that on occasion. Really good.

Funnily enough I revisited that a couple of days ago myself. And this one. OK, so the lip sync isn't perfect, but she's cute.

That looks like a great hotel to stay in, Cal, can you put us up there for our get together?

can't play coma for long, because the controls are awful, but it's beautiful ยป


And the music is quite nice until you get fed up with it, but nothing much seems to happen. Perhaps some brief instructions would be nice, too.

Finished Coma. Where are you stuck, WarHead?

controls are ok, but i don't see how/where to ring the doorbell

i'm assuming you're supposed to grab that glowing swinging thing after the underground bit, but it stopped swinging after i went thru the 2nd time (didn't realise there was no ground past the pipe) and now you... can't... quite... reach it.

bit annoying all but the first few words were cut off off each bit of dialogue. assuming i'm missing loadsa clues.

OK this is a really really REALLY bad (non)pun.

but i recently finally got around to watching cal's old Django speech re scalability/performance-in-bigmetal-envs.
and i just now did a silly typo.

and it occurs to me that an old-school version of this site would be isamcal.com

...

i doubt if anyone will "get" that...

Right after redwind field. Can't get past the sign post. And even if I found a sharp thing for the guy in the pipe/tree trunk thing, I wouldn't know how to take it.

OK, forget it, I just found the walk-through video. The thing is definitely more style than substance and I can't be bothered to run back and forth for 10 minutes just to ring a door bell.

Re: Undercover Karaoke - Charlotte Church did a simular thing a fair while back. Er...
Aha: www.metacafe.com/watch/2452...

Also, Undercover Karaoke might become a TV series.

Fun as the Jelly cups sounds, I refuse to put anything in my mouth that is made by a company that also makes a kit for women to store their own menstrual fluids.
