Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog

Joss Whedon has created a new show that’s only on the internet called Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog.  I’ve been a Joss Whedon fan ever since Buffy the Vampire Slayer and of course some of the other excellent shows and movies he’s done like Angel, Firefly (which should never had been canceled so quickly, shame on you FOX) and Serenity.

Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog is a musical comedy that was written by Joss Whedon during the writer’s strike.  It stars Neil Patrick Harris as “Dr. Horrible” and Nathan Fillion as his arch nemesis “Captain Hammer” and Felicia Day as “Penny.”  Neil Patrick Harris, best known from his earlier show as Doogie Howser is great in this series as Dr. Horrible.  If your a Joss Whedon fan you are also familiar with Nathan Fillion as the evil preacher Caleb (great character) in Buffy and as the captain of the ship Serenity in both Firefly and Serenity. Whedon has done musicals before with the outstandingly good Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode from season six titled “Once More With Feeling.”

There is apparently going to be more Dr. Horrible episodes to come but for now there are 3 episodes that are about 14 minutes each.  The hulu vid I tried to embed in  this posting is apparently rejected by WordPress right now so until they stop rejecting hulu here’s the link.  It has all 3 acts.  I recently listened to Episode 63 of net@night from Leo Laporte’s TWiT site where Felicia Day was talking about the future of Dr. Horrible so if you like the show listen to net@night to find out more.

It’s Been A Long Time

I haven’t posted anything here for like a year and a half.  I really do intend to post more frequently here and on a regular basis someday.  There are so many tips I want to share that I wish people knew about.  One day I will return with lots of content, but from now on I’ll try to at least throw up a video now and then that I find funny, interesting, or educational.  Like this one.  Enjoy.  😉

Super Mario Brothers Synth Board

I just saw this on digg.com so I thought it would be a fun thing to post on my blog.  My first PC tip is still on the way and it will cover lots of free antivirus programs.  From time to time I’ll post other fun or interesting things here in addition to PC tips just for a bit of variety and fun.

This is a Super Mario Brothers Synth board created from the sounds in the original NES version.  You can create your own mario mix of sounds.  Ahhh memories.  I grew up on Nintendo so I’m loving this.  Enjoy!
