April Fools' Day Online
iTunes gave out free downloads of John Cage's silent single 4'33
Google made a strange claim of artificial intelligence with CADIE and Gmail offered to go on autopilot and respond to your messages. I already can't wait for next April Fools' Day.

The Room (dir. Tommy Wiseau)
Writer/director/producer/star Tommy Wiseau's The Room more than lives up to its cult status as the Citizen Kane of bad movies. With its terrible acting and bizarre dialogue
The Room achieves a bad movie perfection that has to be seen to be believed. Although recently given its television premiere on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, the DVD is not too hard to find. Just be prepared for the greatest bad movie ever made.

some cyclists ride for other reasons.
