First you have to see the original "I am Canadian" beer ad to appreciate this fantastic spoof by William Shatner. There isn't a celebrity in Hollywood that can take the piss out of themselves like Bill can. A must view for all Trekkies. view

If you think that you work hard, watch this video of a Bangladeshi bricklayer in action. He turns his difficult labor into an art form, gracefully tossing brick after brick on top of his head. The job may have stunted his growth, but his balance is incredible! view

Chow.com has a great series called 'Obsessive' that profiles those unique indivduals whose obsession (and often, eccentricity) takes food experiences to new heights. Their latest one features John Nese, proprietor of Galco's Soda Pop Stop in Los Angeles. John takes you on his epic journey of carbonated proportions and extols the virtues of pure cane sugar and his distaste for diet soft drinks. A font of pop knowledge, John is as bubbly as his beverages, and will have you craving a cucumber soda and swearing off Red Bull before the twelve minutes are out. Also, check out the Sake, Seaweed and Pizza Obsessives. view

Isabella Rosselini explains the mating habits of various insects in this Sundance Channel web series. I love the handmade feel of the effects and costumes, the unexpected scientific facts, and the off-kilter humor. Favorite moment: Rosselini, dressed in a green unitard, sneaks up on a female mantis and announces, “I would penetrate her.†I recommend the whole series. view

You'll have entirely new respect for carrots. A collection of Viennese musicians write and perform music using vegetables. In this video, we see the ensemble carefully select cucumbers, pumpkins and carrots at a market, then create woodwind and percussion instruments out of them. Together they "play" their homemade instruments as a professional orchestra. I'm more into the concept than the music itself, but this is nevertheless an original. view

When disasters like a Thai Tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, or most recently, an earthquake in Haiti happen, we need fast, affordable, and sustainable housing that can be used to provide shelter for millions of displaced people. After Katrina, it was obvious that we were ill-prepared for the task. Enter Michael McDaniel who, inspired by his styrofoam coffee cup, invented this Exo Housing System, which are modern-day tee pees that are amazingly efficient and can each sleep a family of four. It is inventive thinking like this that truly saves lives. view
