A Heaping Plate of Monkeys
Update: Roger Ebert's blog post about Ben Stein's Expelled (6MB HTML), talked about here, had so many comments the software wouldn't allow any more.
Full-length Beat Farmers documentary finally released YouTube
Folo-up: In 2005 I posted the trailer for a documentary about the legendary SoCal band The Beat Farmers. Due to licensing issues *cough* Letterman clip *cough* the DVD has never been released, despite pleading from fans...until now. Director Jamie Dawson just put the whole thing on YouTube in 9 parts (about 8 mins. each) plus coda. YT Playlist here.
Not a Triffid.

What CAN'T his beard lift?
Update on this project, which became this thread on the blue: turns out eamondaly's beard can lift a 50-pound child. [more inside]
The Q Tipoff.
The Follow-Up Thread
I thought I'd gather together some follow-up links for various things I thought were worth following up on since they were originally posted to the blue. Some things worth checking out, but not individually meaty enough for a whole new FPP. [more inside]
happily hairless.
Great Answer! But.....tell me more, please.
Newbie MeFi-etiquette: On AskMe, it is considered acceptable to ask for more information/detail about a particular answer on the original question's page? [more inside]
This one goes out to Stormin' Norman... and 311
Reading the recent story of Norman Van Lier's death reminded me of the "Dead neighbor, or overactive imagination?" AskMe thread from over the holidays. [more inside]

Insert clever "Keane" pun here.
Followup to my Keane question. The money wasn't as exciting as I thought, but what a painful experience! [more inside]
TIME FOR STILL MORE STORIES
A follow-up to this much-beloved FPP, the resultant AskMe question, and the inevitable follow-up FPP ... it's TIME FOR SOME STORIES: THE BLOG! It contains some reprints from the original thread, plus some new anecdotes. Also of note: the original TIME FOR SOME STORIES thread was restored on vivalavinyl.org, and features newer Dave Secretary stories that weren't in the original linked-to archive.

Question resolution pony?
About a month ago you asked a question on Ask MetaFilter:

Thanks for hearing me out.
Remember that time I kinda flipped out a little bit on MeTa about that AskMe question about how to get Zimbabwean dollars on the cheap? [more inside]
Mods, would you ever re-initiate contact with anonymous?
Do the mods ever ask an anonymous questioner for follow-up info, or does the anonymous asker always initiate the follow-up process? I'm just curious. [more inside]
It worked, thanks.
Thanks to jepler, pixel detctive [more inside]
Crowdsourcing the Future
Walk On
A follow up to this little post I made a few years ago about a fellow that was attempting to walk every street and lane of his surroundings. His passing has given me pause to reflect on the idea of community and how posting events from the local to the global bring us closer together. I want to say thank you to mathowie for providing us with this forum for sharing these often unheard stories.
I've seen it happen in other people's lives and now it's happening in mine
To all the people who have suggested Hendrick's gin with cucumber - thank you. It really is amazing. [more inside]

The longest boat
Shed a tear for the passing of the LongBoing, this day at 9:58am. We got 2516 oars in the water before setting the whole thing aflame, standing on the strand to watch it drift beyond the horizon. It's where we were all Vikings.
Randy Pausch, 1960-2008
A sad follow-up to last year's post on the Last Lecture: Randy Pausch passed away this morning at the age of 47.
Lesbian / lesbian
108 ain't bad.
It's an AskMe Miracle
The end result of this question just needs to be preserved as a "wonderful AskMe moment." Crushing problem solved in a way neither of us would have considered if it hadn't been for the suggestion in AskMe. Now we know, and the other credit-card-ignorant will know too when they search!
The Little House in Ballard is now empty.
Followup: Irena Sendler is dead.
Georgia on my mind.
Yeah, I got my answer, but fuck you.
AskMe vent: Is it just me, or does anyone else get frustrated when they answer questions and the asker never comes back to say "Hey, thanks, that's what I was looking for" or "That's not what I meant, but let me clarify" or never comes back to give feedback to the answers in any way? I'm not talking about "anonymous" askers who obviously can't follow up. I mean regular/mundane/normal questions whose askers never bother to respond at all. [more inside]
Ordinary People
Unfortunately, I can't post it to the original thread because it's more that 30 days old, but Paul Schmeltzer just posted my contribution to his Signifier-Signed project to the blog. Heh. [more inside]
Gave one, finally got one.
Today a mysterious box arrived, which turned out to be my long-lost OLPC! Are there any other Mefites playing around with them? [more inside]
You get more with a kind word and a gun than a kind word alone.
In case anyone wondered what happened with the College Admissions Official From Hell (thread here), an update! Thank you to the good people of AskMe. [more inside]
note: Ask MetaFilter is as useful as you make it. Please limit comments to answers or help in finding an answer. Wisecracks don't help people find answers. Thanks.
Also, I think that the definition of "noise" needs to be extended to encompass posts that are just people giving their opinions without providing anything new to the discussion.

An Ask-me with a happy ending.
Thanks for the letters

MetaFilter's Own Physics Quandary
Tonight a debate that has pitted brother against brother, friend against friend, MeFite against MeFite, will be finally laid to rest. The long awaited Mythbusters episode about airplane vs. conveyor belt airs tonight at 9 o'clock. For real this time. No really, it's airing, Adam Savage said so. [more inside]
