What, is that not proper grammar?

The Dark Side of the Rainbow

I still find this odd, and more than a little obsessive, but still amusing. Finding a correlation between The Wizard of Oz and Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon brings to mind that famous quote of Douglas Adams when confronted with the "6X9=42 in base 13" hypothesis: "I may be a pretty sad person, but I don't write jokes in base 13."

The Wish Project

As someone who's often overly obsessive with grammar, I have to give full props to these guys. They have made it their mission to create perfect wishes with no adverse side effects, just in case a genie wanders by. Some of them can get quite elaborate, but that's what it takes to get what you want from a magical being without regretting it.

Five-Minute Star Trek: First Contact in Spanish. Weird. Just weird. Was this authorized or anything, or did this Marplanauta guy just slap it up? He does credit Zeke, so it's not plagarism, but I'd have preferred a link back here.

Somebody has an account by the name here, so it's probable that it's the same guy. I'm not sure if Zeke is aware of this particular translation though, but I know from experience that you only have to link to the site somewhere to get him to pop up behind you in a most unexpected fashion, so on reflection he probably does.
