Recently, the rock/pop band Fall Out Boy put out a video for their cover of Michael Jackson's 25-year-old hit "Beat It":

Watch that, then watch the original video:

Who's your pick? Personally, I think black Jacko wins, hands-down. I don't even like Fall Out Boy in the first place.
(taken from an OT thread, if you're wondering)
Overall, this week has been a bad one at work. Customer complaints, pushy boss, snobby manager... it all came crashing down at once. And if I quit, I'd have nowhere else to go, so that's not an option. And I can't believe Quiznos is flat-out copying Subway...
About a month ago, Subway started a promotion for $5 footlong subs. It was a huge success, and it hurt Quiznos' business. So, this week, we started our own cheap rip-off of the deal ($5 for a large turkey, roast beef, ham, or tuna sub), and business has skyrocketed again. Stupid maneuver, but apparently it worked.
Now a local chain of sub shops is doing the same thing. What's next, $2 for a small? Sheesh...
Oh well, I can't control the business practices of the higher-ups, so I have nothing to do but do what I'm told. It's a sham, but hey, I get paid to do it. Just thought I'd share my feelings on the matter with you guys. ![]()
This sig took forever to make, because I only have GIMP (no ImageReady).

Poor quality because it's a GIF. Oh well, you can't have it all...
W00T! ![]()
I finished my last project yesterday and turned it in, so I'm now free until August!
I don't have any particular plans, but you'll definitely be seeing more of me now.
Also, because of a certain "zak", I'll most likely be getting a season of Futurama on DVD. Don't know which one to buy, but I'm hoping it's as good as they say. ![]()
Laters...
Yeah, I can't be bothered to make a bio of these guys. There's just too much info, so if you're curious, Google it. ![]()
It's that time of year again... end of the semester for college. I have two tests to study for, and two final projects. It's a lot of work, but I'll manage. It's important, too, since in college, projects/tests usually account for the majority of your final grade. It's way different than high school. ![]()
Also, I'm apparently getting a rebate check from the government as soon as tomorrow. I don't know if it'll be $300 or $600, but I'm counting on it being a good-sized windfall. Gasoline is expensive these days
(not to mention I have a few things I want to get, too).
