New Brain Filler up - “Your Guide to Fictional Little People.”
This (partially) explains why I was researching the average height of Smurfs a few weeks ago.
Still catching up on some business. Dan Gurewitch and Patrick Cassels have new blogs, and the Internet is richer for it.
Bullying people into using blogging platform Tumblr is the closest thing we have to peer pressure at our office. Kevin, you’re next.

Patrick and I have another Brain Filler up on CollegeHumor - A Brief History Of Cars Crashing Through Walls On Sitcoms. A special thanks is JeffRubinJeffRubin readers, who helped track down both the Family Matters and Happy Days.

The CollegeHumor All Nighter was enormously fun. I want to thank the people we talked with in the chat room all night, who had such specific questions that they are obviously reading this (and every CH) blog.

All ten videos we made overnight are collected in one place here.
CollegeHumor All Nighter is underway. Tune in and watch our progress all night at www.collegehumor.com/allnighter.
